Any% with DLC 2017 route (outdated)

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lKdajP4hFj2OF9PEhBw6nESs_RURC3xR-O8SvpiYd2w/edit#

Route last updated April 4 2017 with some mistakes corrected and references to hidden items removed (they can occasionally be useful healing items, but are generally too random to ever rely on)

GoG version is highly recommended for this specific route because the Steam version doesn't have the Allowance DLC. You can use these rough adjustments for running on Steam version (these DO lose time, run on GoG if you can):
¤ Sell all Healing Drink, Healing Bottle, Healing Circle, Healing Rain and the Anti-Status items at the Chapter 2 shop
¤ Buy 3 of each of Steel Bracelet & Life Ring instead of 5
¤ Move Life Rings more aggressively to active party members (requires more menuing); in particular, make sure you take Noire's off before she leaves at the end of Chapter 2. You can move Steel Bracelets as well, at least until the end of that chapter.
¤ Chapter 3 shop - skip Neptune's weapon
¤ Chapter 5 shop - skip Plutia's weapon
¤ Chapter 6 shop - skip Plutia's weapon and only buy 2 Pearl Bracelets. Give the Pearl Bracelets to Plutia and Noire and give Blanc one of their old Cross Bracelets.
¤ If slightly short on money even with these adjustments, sell material items (you get two valuable ones worth 3400 total during Chapter 2 and a single one worth 10000 at the end of Chapter 4)

Any% with DLC 2018 route (new Oracles DLC)

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r0g4LG2YBGhWRgUMcuK-OuukVGQTWX27h7qlFMyb6hw/edit

Route last updated 21 December 2018.
Steam version is required for this route as the other platforms lack the new DLC.
