Are you streaming from a bathroom?
No.

Why are you doing No Reset runs?
Because grinding the manual superswim for hours is boring and I'd like to complete my runs.

Is the Morth Hover faster?
The Morth Hover can be executed faster than a first try, 2-pot, fairy hover (assuming the Morth RNG is fine). Doing fairy hover with a single fairy is still faster though.

What is your current goal time?
My goal right now is to get my personal best down to a 1:02:xx or better, then I'll see where to go from there.

Is sub 1 possible?
Not with our current strategies and optimizations.

What needs to be found for sub 1 to happen?
If you can figure out a viable way for us to skip bombs, then we would very likely be able to get sub 1. Because we obtain bombs, we're forced to obtain the tingle bottle and sail as well. Skipping bombs would cut out all of these items (bombs, sail, tingle bottle) and would more than likely be enough of a timesave to make sub 1 a possibility. Currently the only required use for bombs is to start the morth hover. (All other uses can be skipped, but many are convenient).

Why are you playing in Italian?
Spanish is the language with the least amount of dialogue that I have access to on an NTSC Wii U.

Isn't Japanese supposed to be the fastest?
Japanese is very slow for Wind Waker HD. The Japanese text scrolls at one character per frame, where as all other languages scroll at four characters per frame. Because of this, Japanese is the slowest language.

Wouldn't it be faster if you made your filename only a single character?
In Wind Waker HD, the filename will get displayed in one frame regardless of how long it is; so we can name ourselves whatever we want for our runs without losing time.

Also, just one other note:
I will sometimes  be taking a short break between each attempt to rest my hands and not overexert them due to the manual superswim at the beginning of each run. In November I went too hard on performing the manual superswim over and over again with no breaks and my arms developed pain soon afterwards (which thankfully has gone away now). These breaks are to avoid a repeat situatiom.
