- This is a TAS, or tool-assisted speedrun. It was made using tools such as slowdown, frame advance, and savestates, and is not meant to compete with real runs but is solely for entertainment. I just wanted to make another TAS and decided on this category, I had done a Pacifist No% Eggplant Abzu one earlier, but I think this is distinct enough with the resource usage and an autodeathskip seed.
Category Rules: You are not allowed to have any more items or health besides the starting 4/4/4. Environmental objects are allowed (rocks, pots, and landmines are all okay, for example). Since this is also a chain Abzu category, the udjat eye may optionally be collected, the crown/hedjet is required, the ankh is required, the Excalibur is required (though only allowed to be swung on the Abzu level), the Tablet of Destiny is required, and bringing the correct Ushabti to 6-4 is required. Defeating Hundun is required.
Seed: 1A3DACFA

Shoutout to Spencer_PK for that Olmec strategy, I adapted it from his No Gold Chain Low% Eggplant Duat TAS
The main improvable parts of the run:
1-4: It may be possible to RNG manipulate Quillback into doing backlayer skip without needing to reposition him, but I couldn't get it to work from my brief testing
3-1: I think I got fairly unlucky with a slow Olmec, not really sure how to improve that though. Also a smaller timesave I missed, if you jump while turning around after grabbing an Ankh you would accelerate faster and save a few frames
4-1: I don't really know for sure, but my movement is a bit quirky at the start of the level (it might be close to optimal, I couldn't tell you)
4-4: There is possibly a better way to rope up to Abzu, idk though I didn't really try because I was lazy
6-4: Slightly suboptimal Tiamat cutscene timing and Qilin dismounting because I was lazy and TASing Tiamat is not fun
7-3: While I somewhat doubt it, there could be some faster way to move in water that I'm not aware of
7-4: There's probably ways to get slightly more whips with a specific method but I can't be bothered to brute force it - Hudba
Thanks for the great run
Interesting use of the Ankh. Was wondering why you bothered collecting it if you death-skipped anyway. Cool run!
Well also the ankh is required because of the rules of the category :P
Why abzu entrance was opened?
probably a seed where it gets triggered by an environmental object as soon as the level begins.
