Sooo since yesterday (the weekly upd which added the Miru set) they've removed the 9 orbs near Sanctum Overlook, and then also removed the jump pad with it (yk the one that let you skip everything before SO entirely)

what are we doing now

You can still make the skip with a High Jump or a Moon Jump witness but neither Icarus or Ascended Tempest can make it without more than a double jumps. So chances are you probably will have to use the normal route instead TT-TT.

Though using Moon Jump and High Jump have their own skips too so that also should be considered

Yeah no my run is invalid now unless they have plans of bringing back the jump pad, I will need to redo my run lol >_< I can see other routes now that they added a bunch of beautiful buildings in the center area though - might look into that.

Also, since there is the chamber of rebirth now, do we start from there technically? because it is the first checkpoint?
