Add a new category where the player has to defeat a certain amount of bosses. For example they have to defeat any 3 bosses. Each boss has to be different.
Interesting Idea, but I expect everyone would just do the same two orders. Brain -> Eye -> Skeletron, Brain -> King Slime -> Eye.
The second one would be barely faster but the reset count for a natural King Slime spawn would be insane.
I guess it could be a fun category extension though. I would support adding it and maybe do some runs.
I mean, if "Cooked Fish%" exists, I'm sure this category can too. In fact, I'm actually really starting to like the idea.
If this is added as a category then the Thorn Chakram is great for all 3 on the first list
I did an example run of your category idea! I'm a little rusty at this game but I hope it's still good.
Submerged% your character has to always be touching water, lava, honey, or shimmer. Maybe a ten second leeway when you load in
Oh i do like Submerged%. maybe the less time it takes to get in liquid, the higher the rank of the speedrun (in tandem with the actual speedrun time of course).
I mean this with no disrespect - but this is potentially the worst category idea I've seen in these forums. From literally every perspective I could imagine it's the worst idea I think. Relevancy to the game, enjoyability, likelihood to be ran... This feels more like a challenge run than an actual speedrun. Low% akin, but just an objectively worse condition to be met.
