Speedrunning Tips, Tricks, and Glitches
- Your car counts as an enemy. You can use this to your advantage by destroying it and activating on-kill skills, e.g. Lilith's Intuition.
- You can reload a gun by unequipping and re-equipping it. Very helpful if your weapon has a slow reload rate, e.g. rocket launchers.
- Meleeing after shooting a weapon with a slow recovery animation, e.g. shotguns, will negate it, saving some time. This can also be used for quick reloading as well once the ammunition is put into the weapon.
