My main reasons for doing this were -

1. My last 6:42 run on SDA at points were poorly executed.
2. I wanted to see how much more developed my skills have become.
3. To show that a "perfect" run on PAL can be sub 6:30.I think 6:2? is possible.
4. MT messaged me saying Shin would accept my play(my 6:42 run), i knew i could do better so i came up with this.
5. I just noticed from the news section that Radix had been trying this run, so i thought i would help him out. ;)

Right, let's get onto the run :)

1. The running to the ladder -

The only thing that can trouble you is the JJ "Swing" attack and the archer at the top.

2. The long run to the air duct -

This route i take has worked 100% (I wish the shield ganados were always this stupid all the time). It's the only part i never had to retry at. :)

3. The obtaining of the 1st Sample -

The running is no problem, the guy guarding the sample may strike so that results in another failed attempt.The part with the 3 ganados is what i wanted to do in my 6:42 run but could never get it consistent.I now can, about 6/10 attempts.

4. The obtaining of the 2nd sample and that "corridor" -

Nothing special until the corridor.It can be so random.Sometimes the giant will point and sometimes he will not.I decided to use a quick HG bullet at the top ganado as i could never pass him that often.

5. The run to the Ashley holding cell and obtaining of the 3rd Sample -

The optimum route from my findings.It usually works 9/10 times(unless the ganado guarding the switch past JJ decides to swing for you with the tazer). I also obtain a Hand grenade for JJ.The way the rifle shooting went in the cell was good.The tazer ganado can sometimes hit you, so i overemphasise the "turning" of the run to the case.

6. The JJ Lab Room -

I equipped the TMP and decided to shoot the guy at bottom of stairs to "lure" the other ganados out.The transition from TMP to Hand grenade could have been half a second quicker.

Even though i had 6 bullets left for Krauser, i decided to reload to help me time the door activation.

7. The obtaining of the 4th Sample - This route is highly reliable and has only failed me a few times(failed attempts sterning from the ganado over the jump once activating the door and the giant,shield guy at top not "lunging" for me.

8. The Krauser Fight -

The most frustrating of all.I must have mucked up so much runs because of him. But here, i finally got him with a strategy that i devised myself.

I hope you enjoyed my run alot more than i did running it :P

My next target in the Resident Evil 4 world will be the 1:43:47 run.
