Pretty sure low% RSG is impossible

I just saw a new category called low% where you try to beat the game whilst getting as few advancements as possible. It’s a really cool idea that I’ve thought of myself too. However, there are many advancements that would be impossible to avoid, and others that would be extremely difficult. The following advancements MUST be completed: The nether We need to go deeper Into fire The end The end? The following advancements would be very difficult to avoid: Minecraft Husbandry Acquire hardware Adventure Monster hunter Ice bucket challenge Hot stuff Those were the days Oh shiny Who is cutting onions? A terrible fortress Eye spy (not sure if this one even can be avoided) Ok, so I proved that it could technically be done with only 5 advancements, 3 normal and 2 roots, but it would be incredibly difficult and would require a lot of optimization. But sadly, no one is going to care about this category enough to optimize it enough to have a completed run. Ok there’s my opinion so bye now

It's not actually impossible, although I can see why you'd think it is, because it's not very intuitive.

Into Fire can be avoided because as long as you have a GUI open the game does not grant you advancements for picking up items. So by opening up a GUI, then picking the rods up, and then somehow getting rid of them (by crafting them into blaze powder, storing them into a container or throwing them out again) you can use them for crafting/transport them without triggering the advancement.

I'd suggest reading the guide linked here if you're interested in the category: https://www.speedrun.com/mc_juice/guide/rgadn

@Ohara that’s true, I’ve seen people do this before. But when I craft something I get the advancement before closing my inventory, why does this happen? Is it part of a mod or something? If so I don’t think that should be allowed.

it gives you the advancement before closing inventory in 1.17+ i think, in 1.16 and before it doesn;t

the 2x2 crafting grid in you inventory doesnt count as a gui, so it doesn't skip
