Routes

Ridley First

The Ridley First route is confirmed to be faster than the Kraid First Route, both in-game and RTA time. This is the standard route used for any% today.

The general route:

  1. Brinstar - Get Morph Ball, Missiles, Bombs, maybe Charge Beam, go to Norfair.
  2. Norfair - Go to Crateria.
  3. Crateria - Get Unknown Item and Power Grip.
  4. Norfair - Get Ice Beam and refill there. Go to Ridley.
  5. Ridley - Get two super missile tanks, Unknown Item, and beat Ridley.
  6. Norfair - Get Hi Jump on the way back up to Brinstar.
  7. Brinstar - Go to Kraid
  8. Kraid - Do AWS, get Unknown Item and beat Kraid. Get Speed Boost and leave.
  9. Tourian - Clear this area
  10. Chozodia - Do suitless section, then clear the game without getting power bombs.

This section will detail strategies for every single room in the Any% Route of Metroid: Zero Mission, following the general route above. Each bullet point is one room (sub-bullet points are additional notes for that current room).

(WIP)

Kraid First

The Kraid First route is confirmed to be slower than the Ridley First Route, both in-game and RTA time. This route is rarely used, the primary reason being that it includes an extra cutscene, requires horizontal bomb jumping for acid worm skip, difficult kraid fight, and is ultimately slower.
