Any% No Horse Tilts Route

Route is basically the same but order of doing things is little bit different. 

Helgen:
- grab bucket

Whiterun:
- ask to help around the forge
- glitch Alvor only once, use faster route to the left

Embassy + Riften: 
- same as before

Karthspire:
- get FT point
- travel to Markarth Stables
- take carriage to Winterhold

Septimus:
- pickpocket
- travel to Riverwood

Karthspire 2:
- open door
- travel to Whiterun Stables

Mzark:
- vendor glitch Ri'saad. If he is not here, use a wait but you can't use wait before horse steal. His position is a RNG depended. He can stand next to the gate or he can be in front of his tent.
- grab Elder Scroll and travel to Sky Haven Temple

Wall:
- dupe Dragonbane
- travel to Riften

Marriage:
- setup marriage with Marcurio
- travel to Whiterun Stables

Horse 1:
- wait one hour immediately (don't do it if you spent your hour on Ri'saad)
- steal horse and go to High Hrothgar

Horse 2:
- talk to Parthy, set up glitch
- travel to Riften, start marriage and cutscene at the same time

Cutscene:
- kill dragon
- travel to Markarth Stables and hire carriage to Windhelm
- jump twice at Windhelm
- travel to High Hrothgar
- travel to Throat of the World
- get Dragonrend, Travel to Winterhold when Alduin land and turn over his head
- travel back to Throat of the World
- kill Gormlaith, skip dialogues
- at Faal Kel Nikrine travel to Windhelm Stables, guard warp and discover FT point to Palace
- wait till cutscene is over and kill Alduin

Rest is the same as before but:

Solitude:
- guard should be in front of you when you travel to Katla's Farm. Don't have to wait one hour as we did before


Cutscene strats:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Tlrub5osaQ

Run as an example:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9F3Qo6ZMd98

Q: What difficulty is this on?
A: Easy because it's the fastest. Harder difficulties just make the run longer and more boring.
 
Q: What level are you?
A: 1, you stay at level one for the entire run because level scaling makes Alduin beatable at this level.
 
Q: How are you moving so fast without sprinting?
A: There is a glitch where if you start a sprint, quicksave, then end the sprint and quickload at the same time you keep the speed of the sprint without using any stamina.
 
Q: How do you jump so far?
A: The glitch listed above allows this. You move at the speed of sprinting while still being able to jump.

Q: What was with all that saving and loading after Helgen?
A: This is called a load warp. You can pause the game right at the same time you enter a load zone. Then, if you quit to the main menu and load up a different save, the game will load that character and warp them through the load zone as if you just walked into it. This lets us make a save at the back of Helgen, then go inside and get our hands unbound, then just warp straight out of it instead of running all the way through. We also use it after getting Esbern.

Q: Why is the game stuttering every time you go through a load?
A: Normally after a load the game has a second long fade in where you don't have control. If you quicksave and quickload during this fade in you instantly skip it. Since quicksaves and quickloads are counted out as per our timing rules, this is faster.

Q: What did you just do with that vendor?
A: If you click and drag your mouse from your inventory to a vendor's, you stay in sell mode while having their inventory open. This lets you sell their own inventory to them, taking all their gold for free.

Q: WHAT HOW DID YOU GET OFF A HORSE AND SUDDENLY YOU'RE GOING A MILLION MILES PER HOUR???
A: If you tilt your horse to a 90+ degree angle and get off, for some strange reason, the game gives you ridiculous amounts of speed. You can load a save during the dismount animation to stop gaining speed and be able to somewhat control yourself. The save must be 3rd person as you instantly stop in 1st person.

Q: How did you just go through the wall at the Embassy?
A: Many walls in this game can be clipped through by running into them while holding certain items in front of you. Buckets, bowls, and platters work best.

Q: Why did you take from the chest at the Embassy?
A: Normally you can't enter the embassy until much later in the game. Inside the chest is a plot item you're supposed to get then. If you get it, it will advance straight to the Cornered Rat quest, skipping a good portion of the main quest.

Q: Why did you go in and out of the door multiple times in Riverwood?
A: One method of skipping diagloue is to leave and re-enter an area. We do this multiple times in Riverwood to skip a lengthy conversation between Esbern and Delphine.

Q: Did you just get married???
A: No. The main quest usually has an unskippable 4.5min long cutscene where you learn Dragonrend. It turns out whenever you fail to attend your marriage, the game gives you back control (since there's usually a cutscene). If you combine that with a glitch that lets you read the Elder Scroll anywhere to start the cutscene, you can warp into the cutscene during your marriage ceremony, fail it, regain control, and do things to make it significantly faster.

Q: Why are you travelling to weird places during the cutscene?
A: This skips dialogue during the cutscene, manipulates the time of day ingame to something favourable for later events, and lets us discover fast travel points for later use.

Q: How are you continually doing power attacks without using stamina?
A: While dual wielding weapons, if you start a power attack with both and immediately hit the attack buttons again once the animation starts, it'll do the power attack without using stamina. 

Q: What's with all the stream lag during council?
A: Another method of skipping dialogue is to quicksave and quickload, which will skip ahead to the next line of dialogue. You can do that repeatedly in council to make it significantly faster.

Q: Are you actually flying on a bucket?
A: Yes. That bucket is a "heavy" object and pushes you back if you pull it towards yourself. When standing inside the bucket, you pull it upwards and it pushes you further upwards, allowing you to fly. It's basic physics.

Q: Hey streamer what's the alduin thing?
A: Tune in and find out, viewer.

Q: haha I love the bucket glitch xd
A: Seriously? This run has so much incredibly broken stuff and a basic clip is what gets you going?
 
Q: Are there any mods?
A: No, mods are not allowed in speedrunning.
 
Q: What is the fastest time?
A: You can see all times at: http://www.speedrun.com/skyrim

Glitches etc. you should know

The following are things you should be aware of when running this game. They're all little things experienced runners don't think about but new runners get tripped up by a lot.

[big]**Text Glitch**[/big]
This glitch allows you to skip through dialogue much faster than normal. Unfortunately it only appears at random, usually after the game's been open for 3+ hours. Because of this, runs with the text glitch are not allowed on the leaderboard. If you can find a consistent (and convenient) way to reproduce this glitch for everyone, we can allow it.

[big]**Misc Dialogue / Menu Glitches**[/big]
There are a few glitches that appear with the dialogue and menus in this game:

* If you scroll with your mouse wheel past the bottom option, it will roll around and actually select the top option while still highlighting the bottom one. You can choose the correct option by clicking on the one you want rather than using the keyboard. This happens going past the top too.
* The center option is not always the currently selected option. The one that is highlighted white is the current selection. This always happens during Arngeir's dialogue after the first horse climb.
* After reading a book from your inventory (e.g. misclicking when trying to read the Elder Scroll) you can no long use the mouse. You either much use the keyboard to select the correct item, or close and reopen the menu.


[big]**UI Glitch**[/big]
At random your game will stop showing quest updates and new location discovered notifications. Restarting your game will fix it.

[big]**Mzark Buttons**[/big]
The button puzzle to get the Elder Scroll is very easy to glitch. If you spam use when placing the lexicon, it will bug out and seem to both have the lexicon placed and not. You'll have to remove and replace it again to fix it. Additionally, spamming use on the 4th hit of the 1st button will cause the 2nd button to open and immediately close. You'll have to play around with the other buttons to reopen the 2nd one.

[big]**Angry Guards**[/big]
Guards can refuse to accept your surrender and simply try to kill you instead. This happens most with the Riften and especially Windhelm guards. I suggest quicksaving before doing a guard warp. Restarting the game after this happens may also help. Guards can also decide to ignore you completely, in which case just attack them again.

[big]**Carriage Wrong Warp**[/big]
If you choose the wrong option when using the carriage, you may be taken to the wrong place even when going back into the menu and selecting the correct place. Go back and select the correct place twice to go to the correct place 100% of the time.

[big]**Markarth Carriage Glitch**[/big]
Sometimes this jerk doesn't want to be a carriage driver and he won't have the dialogue option to choose a destination. Choose a couple other options and the carriage option should appear.

[big]**Horse Camera Glitch**[/big]
Occasionally after travelling to Riverwood, your camera will jerk and your horse will move in the wrong direction. Tapping forwards once before moving will prevent this.

[big]**Stagger Glitch**[/big]
You can't shout while staggered. It's possible to get stuck in a staggered state when you get staggered while attacking for a short time. You should be able to fire all required shouts before getting staggered in Alduin 1.

[big]**Invincible Alduin**[/big]
If you load a save during the Alduin 1 fight, he may become invincible. Reload the save until he's vulnerable again. You shouldn't need a save for this fight, though.

[big]**Floating Paarthunax**[/big]
Paarty can land in the air after Alduin 1 when you need to talk to him. Fast travel to High Hrothgar and back to lose the least amount of time.

[big]**Arngeir Glitch**[/big]
When going to talk to Arngeir the 2nd time he can be completely unresponsive for about 15s. We don't know what causes it or how to fix it other than waiting. It seems to be rare for most players.

[big]**Door Glitch**[/big]
Sometimes doors aren't usable. Just quicksave / quickload to fix this.

Legendary Difficulty Glitchless Main Quest Guide (easier version of the route)

First you need to already be familiar with Novice (you should really start with Novice and try to get at least sub-1:20 before you try Legendary)
I'm just copying here what I sent to Li_L:
so, the basic strategy is Orc/Bound Bow/Atronach Stone
*get the novice hood and robes in the jail cell in helgen
*after exiting helgen, take a different path to whiterun (you won't have the horse to climb the rocks from anise's cabin later), so run to riverwood and get the ft point, then run up the rocks to bleak falls barrow and get that ft point, then run to pelagia farm and attack the guard to get the dragonsreach ft point
*take the carriage to markarth, grab the juniper berries, and then take the carriage to windhelm
*steal a horse and go south, get the kynsgrove ft point, and turn right toward raldbthar when you get the "riverside shack" ft point. get the raldbthar ft point (you can do this fast by climbing up steep rocks at the end)
* fast travel to riverwood and climb the throat of the world
*fast travel back to riverside shack and keep going south to the giant's camp. turn left when you get the ft point for the giant's camp, get off your horse and get the Atronach Stone
*fast travel back to the giant's camp and run into Fort Amol, where you get the bound bow spell. sneak while entering and then start sprinting. just keep trying until you make it out alive
now you can almost cast bound bow with the Novice Hood, so use the Shrine of Julianos nearby. wait 2-3 hours until night, and sneak up so you can use it without the mage attacking you. then fast travel to bleak falls barrow 
* the Shrine of Julianos effect will end about when you exit ustengrav, so cast Bound Bow 8 times before then (while in combat), so you have Conjuration 18. then you can cast it without shrine of Julianos 
*use berzeker rage+ bound bow on the Bleak Falls boss
*now go back to dragonsreach and while there, steal 6 Elves Ear and make 1 Archery Potion (you will make more later) 
use archery potion + berzeker rage to kill mirmulnir
*while the graybeards are testing your Fus Ro, steal their Imp Stool
you can also shoot each of them up to 3 times to get Archery XP
* go to morthal, grab a Swamp Fungal Pod (you can use berserker rage to kill the necromancer), go through ustengrav, then fast travel to markarth 
while you go to sky haven temple, grab 7 Juniper berries
* in the riverwood inn, grab two Elves Ear, make 7 Archery Potions and 1 Paralysis Potion
*fast travel to kynsgrove and use berserker rage and an archery potion for sahloknir (this will be very easy). if you sneak behind the rock near delphine you can get a few sneak attacks at the beginning 
you should also keep casting Bound Bow to get to 20 Conjuration, the mystic binding perk is important. get that and the Archery damage perks. Critical Shot is very weak and useless
* sneak through the second thalmor embassy building. after you get Esbern's Dossier, stand by the door you entered from, sneak, and quicksave. load and read the book until you pickpocket the key
* do ratway skip as usual
*go through raldbthar as usual - just be careful
*for Alduin 1, crouch behind the rocks near him so you can shoot him while avoiding his attacks. keep using dragonrend and clear skies. level up when your health is low. use berzeker rage and archery potions. when berzeker rage ends, use dragonrend again, then run down the mountain until you can wait. wait 24 hours, fast travel back to the throat of the world dragonrend alduin and use berzeker rage when he lands
note: instead of waiting 24 hours you can fast travel to thalmor embassy and back BUT this can cause a bug where alduin's health is restored. you can try to find a way to avoid the bug
*continue as usual until Tsun. if you stand on the bridge and shoot him with your Paralysis Poison while he's running toward you, he can fall off the bridge. quicksave and keep trying
in Alduin 2, stand far away from him. use berzeker rage once whenever you think is the best time, and keep using archery potions

Things banned in all runs

**Text Glitch**
When leaving the game open for a long time (3+ hours), a glitch happens where you can skip through conversations much faster than normal. This glitch has an annoying long and inconsistent setup and doesn't work the same on everyone's computer, so it's not allowed in runs. You are advised to restart your game after every completed run or handful of attempts to avoid this.

**Ctrl+PrtScn Hotkey**
This hotkey changes the game speed to be based on framerate rather than real time, which means the game runs normal speed at 30 FPS. Higher than that the game runs too fast (2x speed at 60 FPS, 4x at 120, etc.) and lower than that it runs slower. Since not everyone can maintain a constant 60 FPS (framedrops in Riften are common) this hotkey is not allowed.

**Console Commands**
Use of console commands would make the run trivial and boring so no commands are allowed to be executed during a run. Console commands are very helpful during testing / routing, however you are advised to restart your game prior to doing runs to ensure no commands entered will effect anything.

**Mods**
As Skyrim is already an unstable game, we can't be sure any installed mods will not effect the run in any way or work the same across computers. Therefore any mods must be removed before doing any runs. Even trivial things like having SKSE running is not allowed.
