I played this game for nearly 20 years now, thought i discovered all there is. And now i realized that you can snipe everything from a different continent. This game and skilled players like yourself never cease to amaze me.
First of all: CONGRATZ!! This is absolutely unbelievable. I wouldn't have thought that SF would be a game that anyone would actually complete a run in, kudos to your dedication, this is extremely impressive and I'm glad I engaged with speedrunning this game before so I could see that stuff evolve. That being said, I don't see this run ever being beaten by anyone other than yourself, like it's very possible to do, but I don't know a person who would subject themselves to the torment that is halt glitching for 5 hours straight. I will certainly not try, my Rohen death run was more than enough for me personally. Final thoughts: This is super impressive and I'm glad that lingering thought of having to do a full game run just so there is one is out of the back of my head, but at the same time it's a bit sad to lose that drive for running this game, seeing how that run would play out lol. Again congratz and gg!!
Thanks a lot! It was legit a blast. I did make lots of mistakes, I already know how to improve this time but after so many days of constantly running I'm taking a break from it xD . Also yah...mouse started double clicking , maybe I should've rebinded the keys somehow. The base for speedrunning is there but it's a lengthy one unf... Thank you again ^^
I tried once last week, i was so happy to made it under 10 hours. And i seen this and im broken inside. Pretty impressive, im playing this game for like around 9 years.
I've been playing TOoD since it was released without any addons. It should be possible to get a much lower time but being consistent with the tile skip gets very tiring after a while, painful even
The iceburst damage was also doing some nice damage overtime and the instant damage from it also counts. I'm not sure how this happens, basically the spell triggers before the actual projectiles reach the enemies
@@skaidan5213 you attack and right after the damage has been done you press H, if you constantly animation reset then the enemy never gets damaged, that's why you have to pay attention to when the target gets damaged, sometimes you can miss an attack and if that happens you can animation cancel for the next attack
You need to use shelter from lightcombat arts, it increases your magic defence by a lot, one of the illusions tanks all the ice magic from the blades , the other one just runs past them until you're in combat so you can have a way to escape if they lock you in melee.
I understand. So instead of shelter would ice resistant gear achieve the same effect? I play on 1.54 version and as I understand the shelter spell is bugged and useless. I don't want to speedrun, I just want to kill them for the xp when my level is high enough before they disappear because of the story.
@@buca9696 The spell isn't bugged, you need to be at least their level or higher to have a very high chance to not get frozen. Shelter and gear with ice res will work well then. You can check out my streams when I did the solo challenge and went and killed them , maybe the strat is going to help
@@buca9696 It's either rng or the spells didn't work in an in-between patch. I never had that issue in 1.54 with shelter/patronize. The difficulty is also a huge factor to res magic

There's many ways to exploit the game but I always prefer to play it without bugs
Shame second game is just fanfic....
You can skip ending actually.
This is the video I needed in my life, thank you

RESPECT.
Halt glitching leads to fingers itching - great job and enjoy a well-earned rest dude :D
You can bind left click to mouse wheel up or down if you have one of those with a "clutch", like Logitech G502, that way you don't have to mash LMB.
Hello , where can i get the latest version ?! Tnx
Hey, I use the latest steam version
Was there any reason to use wind archers instead of rangers?
The iceburst damage was also doing some nice damage overtime and the instant damage from it also counts. I'm not sure how this happens, basically the spell triggers before the actual projectiles reach the enemies
@@GothChild I see, kinda surprising that they even trigger at that level difference.
@@Farlon273 It's rare but in mass it happens and it's mucb better than normal attacking rangers
How can he bug the game like that?!?!?
appreciate your video a lot! big fan of sf1. But how do you walk so fast? it seems you are always jumping forward?
You have to do the halt command and time it so your units skip a tile doing so
This is amazing. But i need to know... how do you attack remotely?
Double click + h (works with all non hero units)
@@GothChild The attack animation reset you also do by spamming right click and H?
@@skaidan5213 you attack and right after the damage has been done you press H, if you constantly animation reset then the enemy never gets damaged, that's why you have to pay attention to when the target gets damaged, sometimes you can miss an attack and if that happens you can animation cancel for the next attack
@@GothChild Right, so you spam right click, but only press H after you see the damage number or the attack misses. Thank you!
@@skaidan5213 Exactly, no problem dude. Have fun ^^
How did you attack the Blade Defender on the hill without units in proximity at the end?
I used the same strat the entire run, you select all non hero units and you do this : double click + h
hello, do I need to make some settings to be able to attack from a distance with H + click?
@@avramutpaul7232 Hey, no, just select all the non hero/avatar units and double right click + h
Can you explain how and why this works please? Is it a glitch?
@@ovedurak Double right click to attack and press H for hold immediately after. Might take some attempts.
Awesome👍🏻
Hi, how exctly did you get past the blades in icegate marsh? I used illusions like ypu but they still killed me.
You need to use shelter from lightcombat arts, it increases your magic defence by a lot, one of the illusions tanks all the ice magic from the blades , the other one just runs past them until you're in combat so you can have a way to escape if they lock you in melee.

@@GothChild the wiki says someone looked at the code and in the 1.54 version it doesn't have any effect.

no rewards, no fame, just being a fan of old good game.
Woow, nice! Firstly I thought that its a fake :)
this is incredible
I am playing the new gothic mod called -“dark saga”. Check it out. It came out just a few days ago
It's an old mod though
well done!
MONSTER :) parabéns
1:09:23 did you have to pee?
It's called "piss strat" , gives +1 to rng and +10 seconds to the timer :D
