Difference between revisions of "Strider (2014)/100 %"

Revision as of 18:18, 12 October 2014

In a 100% run the player must earn 100% item completion percentages as displayed by the in-game map, in every area. This means all upgrades, as well as all large items, both of which have icons prominently displayed on the map. It also means all unlockables, even if you already unlocked them they re-appear on subsequent playthroughs. They also aggravatingly provide the same "blah blah unlocked" message which prevents you from knowing which ones you got and which ones you didn't get on previous playthroughs. The results screen after Meio Prime will show 100%.

Strider is new and routes/strategies are not finalized yet. More to come soon...

Strider 100% glitched route

These notes are a mix of basics routing (left, right, climb...) and detailled techniques (out of Bound, dragon dance,...) be sure to check the Movement Techniques before reading this.
Also sorry the possible mistakes and misspelled words. Don't hesitate to update or correct these notes if need be.
These notes are better viewed with the maps for better comprehension.
