Hey I’m looking into optimizing Konquest, I was curious about why there isn’t Any%/100% categories, and there just doesn’t seem to be much information/rules for Konquest Mode. I’d be more than happy to work on Konquest Mode alone because I really enjoy the speedrun and think it deserves more attention!
Hey man, sorry for the late reply. Been a little swamped lately.
We're entirely open to having 100%/Any% categories if you're interested. What would the 100% category consist of? Just getting all 60 treasures?
That is what I was wanting to talk with you guys about, I have never even played this game until like 2 weeks ago lol, So I don't know all of the intricacies of this game yet, but I do see a lot of potential for other categories especially with Konquest.
Actually a 100% category is not necessary, because you only will add things like doing all the challenge in the obelisk, opening all chests and picking up all hidden items (these ones will disappear in your next run on the same profile after you pick them, so you can't have all the health and mana upgrades in a new run). And because of that I also think is not necessary doing a NG+ run only because you have all upgrade of health and mana, which actually only helps having the mana upgrades. This things make so little affect in gameplay that makes no difference within these runs, it's not like you have to enter a different level or path to achieve something that isn't necessary for the history; all chests and hidden items can be found doing the normal playthrough because it's a pretty linear game, that's my opinion ay.
Makes sense but I think 100% would just have to be done one fresh file or you would do what you normally would do on a NG+ file and call it something else lol.
Also is timing at the start of the cutscene of Botan Jungle consistent? I would have figured time would start at the selection of Konquest or at the first movement of the character.
I know this is old, but I actually disagree with 100% not being necessary. The Obelisk Challenges, the Chests and the Hidden Itens will add a lot of things to the run, backtracking in some sections, and a lot of nuances that will make for a different routing overall.
Totally up for doing a run of this, if a category can be added.
Hey I did a run of "All Relics" yesterday and plan to do more with it! I am totally down to do/learn other categories for Konquest, its really fun haha. I'll make posts if I do runs of the other categories you listed cause I didn't even think of those!
Category has been added. I took the liberty of submitting the run on your behalf.
GG man! Nice run!
Yoo thanks man much appreciated!! It's a pretty fun run! I'll post if I do other categories like All Obelisk Challenges or something! I'm still derusting the game but enjoying it again!
Completed a run of All Obelisk Challenges! not sure how you guys were planning on adding other categories! But I intend to do a 100% run of Konquest and a 100% Krypt speedrun! All Treasure Chests would also be fun as well!
