andyNot a serious speedrun category, but I'm super happy to have been able to make this a thing.
A combination of getting Ryu to level 29 with the 16hp buff from the Wildcat reward, DragonAR, ShinyHT SunMask, and 2 fastshoes allow Ryu to solo Barubary without stat ups. Statups would be fair game but the DragonAR and ShinyHT are very minor detours and the HP plays a facotr, which stat items can't increase.
Yes, using a glitched item for infinite healing is cheesy, but cooking Extracts could be done but that is just a nasty time sink.
For how the glitched weapon came to be check out my herb/moondrop glitch video. Instead of the moondrop or extract I use item 03 which is the extract to gain infinite full heals during battle. That video can be found at youtube.com/watch?v=9H5dkc-0tMk -- Watch live at twitch.tv/andyw3321

This is the first time that I'm attempting to stream on youtube. Please bare with me as I get use to this.
This speedrun uses some glitches that I personally discovered. The weapon glitch is done via the swch menu glitch (switching a weapon and canceling) You can get bugged weapons on everyone except for Ryu. The main weapon the moondrop allows you to attack twice and it has the holy element property. You can also use it as an unlimited item (AE Full party heal + remove all status effects including death) Sadly this also means beneficial buffs like attack up.

I was trying to get the world map OOB, but got the town one instead. (I'm really excited that I was able to do it on console and record it)
Both glitches were discovered by Jiseed. Below are links to his videos:
The world one I have gotten on emulator as well but never on console. The world OOB glitch was done by going to skytower and then using Timewarp on the world map (you are not suppose to beable to cast a spell while using the whale)
sadly we don't have the setup Jiseed did before going to skytower and I didn't record it when I was doing my testing of it a few years ago.
I didn't record a follow up to the above video but I did test Farmtown and using Daisy. Sadly she doesn't spawn until memory and even then she wont talk to anyone.

Knorgar was a member of the community and Kayen was a GM and content creator for this server. Stormhaven was a custom EQ server that was hosted on EQ Emulator. The server has existed for well over 12 years (I believe it started in 2008).
Due to several years of low player activity the server has been shut down. We discuss this topic at various points in the video. The server has been backed up and the files may be released for public use at a future time.
I loved this server and will never forget all the good times that I had and the people that I met. -- Watch live at twitch.tv/andyw3321Breath of Fire II - Exploring Herb / Moondrop glitch and infinite item overflow potentialandy2019-12-13 | This started off as a Terapin% run to celebrate Breath of Fire II coming out on the switch.
It turned into exploring "why does the mirror glitch happen"
The mirror glitch is when we try to get a moondrop onto Katt but the mirror appears (which will result in a softlock)
I explored trying to change the value for Katt and had no luck. I then loaded some console runs at the end game which had some values that changed and others that didn't
In the last 10 minutes of the video I show off something never seen before. While trying to overflow my inventory with bugged wfruit (item 08 if you want to try) I noticed that you can "store extra items" I show it off with herbs, same principle.
I had a stack of 8 herbs and 3 glitched herbs in my inventory (11 total)
clean inventory and 9x herbs and 1 bugged herb show (10 showing but 11 total)
sold 1 herb from the stack and cleaned inventory
inventory showed 9xherb and 1 bugged herb (showed 10 and did have 10 in total)
sold 1 herb from the stack and cleaned inventory
inventory showed 9xherb (showed 9 but none were bugged and the bug flag disappears) ------------------------------------ Had I done the above with 4 glitched items it would have been 12 total in inventory but showed only 10 ------------------------------------------ I don't know if there is some merit or chance to take advantage of this weird quirk, like overflowing something or rewriting values to execute code but it could!
-------------- -- Watch live at twitch.tv/andyw3321Chrono Cross - All Characters - WR 9:36:14andy2019-12-01 | Fun run to do. This was my second time running this category. I had a lot better planning going into this one and learned from my mistakes last time. I might have gotten that sub 9:30 if I did a little bit more due diligence on the NG+ side of things. I'm happy that I was able to get sub 10 and close to a sub 9:30. I think the run can get close to a sub 9 but at this time I do not seek to actively grind for it. Run was done live on my twitch account on 11/30/2019.

The meat and potatoes of this video is in the last phase of the fight, but I decided to highlight the whole thing.
I knew that status ailments and maybe death would be an issue and almost went with Miranda who can revive and cure status ailments. Stuck with Rose on a random whim (Miranda would have been better but it made it exciting I guess)
Was hoping to power up Dartz and power down for a quick kill at the end and then yeah .... -- Watch live at twitch.tv/andyw3321Chrono Cross - Any% Good Ending - PB: 6:50:12andy2019-04-09 | What a exciting run! Sad to see no WR or sub 6:50 but it was still awesome to get this.
1 min goof with forgetting to hit the yellow switch in the fort. Low magic Marcy hurt for Dario (17) 20 is average and 23-26 is amazing tiers Green dragon island split was a bit rough 40 seconds to silly encounters going to Dark Serge -- Watch live at twitch.tv/andyw3321Chrono Cross - Any% Good Ending - PB 6:50:49andy2018-12-23 | Finally got the low 6:5x:xx time! I struggled getting a pb from the 6:57 but at the same time I knew I was more then capable of getting this or even the WR, which I did not get. At the time of this posting that is held by EvilAsh25 with a 6:48:12.
This could be my last pb but I might try some more runs. I felt that I could have gotten a 6:45:xx and Ash also feels that a low 6:4x:xx is possible. The tough part is grinding RNG. Hoping for good stats, AP rolls for all the fights, 1st key ghost ship, and so on.
No matter what this speedrun will always be special to me. It was my 2nd love after Breath of Fire II and really both games have various reasons to why they are special for me.
For a summary, which I went over in the credits: - I have hardly gotten a 0:57:xx Lynx - let alone a low 0:58:xx. The 0:55:40 was an outlier but helped me cover for time! Only guard fights with 3 (none with 4) Good AP rolls and a nice str on Kid helped me out a lot here
- The downside was that I didn't get a Iceblast from Marcy, her common drop. This is a lv 4 blue element that has a nice boost in spell power over the aquaball. Its hard to put a value on it but I think it costed me at least 20-30 seconds from not ending fights a bit earlier
- Polly went a little south but it was a time gain. Could have been a bit better - 17str serge with a 1 key ship. my fights weren't clean but I can't complain
-Mt. Pyre Glenn had really good str and Leena was okay magic, but again not having iceblast hurt
-Lost 30 seconds to Gloop, was a bit of a shame but with leena missing and bad stamina + her getting frozen it didn't help
- Rest of fort was good - had 3 mins from troll Taursoid in previous pb
- first time with at least a 2:15 Lynx and crushed it, with opportunities. It is hard to get everything to play so nicely up to this point! If I could get 2:15 Lynx darn near eveytime I wouldn't mind grinding the game more. -- Serge had 24 Str. Highest I have seen was 29 but I like to be at least 25. I did end up getting him to a nice str before he was needed, so it worked out fine
-WightKnight - random encounters to him were good/went well. Lost a minute because of low magic Harle and Sprigg. Had to beat him down with Sprigg, photon didn't kill.
-Miguel had a mess up on the pb so gained that time back
-Vipor sewers - man was looking soooo good and then the 2nd half went down hill fast. Trolly mobs in the way and then Roachester fight had a weird AP and I misplayed it trying to bring it back.
- Dario, not much I can do there. I had a 19 magic Marcy and was against a 25 magic. Was shocked at the 1:40 lost only, thought it would be 2-2.5 mins
- Earth Dragon, amazing 2 fights leading to him and really good AP roll
-water dragon fight had a sad time loss with a miss on Serge - balanced out super pb on earth thou
-Green Dragon island - really nice fight but really botched up a pterodactyl encounter - should have been able to gain 1 min more on this split
- FireDragon - got into random encounter to him and had a slight hiccup with him so that was 40 seconds - Vitas Unus and Fate had nice time gains to be had from bad stuff on the pb and we got em. Fate could have been better but at least I didnt have to run away... CLOSE!
- Tower Terror - As a hole didnt go well. Was 8 seconds off of WR but there was hardly anytime to gain here. npcs were mean and I messed up my share. Got into 2 fights and screwed up red doll fight. This with the 2 extra fights was 1:30 hit
- Gravitor was a bit trolly but just minor loss
- Dragon God had a decent start but didnt get off of phase 1 quickly. -- Watch live at twitch.tv/andyw3321Breath of Fire II - Solo Barubary - in speed run - 31 Ryuandy2018-12-13 | Ran for the RRLAT2 (Really Really Long a Thon 2) a marathon dedicated to showing long RPG's that was hosted on the Speedgaming channel.
The marathon was ahead by 2 hours before I started my run so I was asked to fill some time up and on the fly I went for solo Barubary which had never been done before in a speedrun.
Yes, with infinite extract it looked easy but I wasn't sure how much defense was needed (most solo barubary challenges are with a high 40's Ryu, mine was 31 and I hope to make it one day with a level 28 Ryu which is what we normally have in the speedrun for Barubary (and he gets owned!)
Barubary's attack rises as his health gets lowered.
It was a blast and thrill to achieve this on the fly without testing stuff (It was going so bad that I couldn't get all the gear that I had in mind for attempting this challenge.
Infinite extract is a part of the glitched weapons (see herb 9.0 or moondrop video to understand that glitch)

This was the first time that we both got the same rng to make it a great race. At the time of this recording EmkanK had the WR of 6:35:xx which he improved a few days later to a 6:33:xx. At the time of this video I had the 2nd best time with a 6:40:xx.
I also wanted to share this video for newer speedrunners who may be interested in running this game. We mention a good amount of some of the ways to approach fights and highlight some of the old methods, current methods and ideas for the future.
You will also see that EmkanK got the hp buff and I did not (but my Any% guide has the hp buff.
Notes:
#1 - I tried to cut the extra footage off at the end of the video. I had to re-record the footage and didn't get home in time to end the recording at the end of the video. I tried to cut it but I made the video go from 9GB to 60GB. I'm sure I rendered it wrong but I didn't want to try it again.
(my PC went full throttle for 6 hours and I don't water cool!)
The footage at the end is of Emkan's Terrapin% attempts - they mean nothing but I wanted to make this video public.
#2 Yes the audio and video cuts out on my stream at the VERY END. Something happened with Twitch. I don't want to spoil the video but I will say that whoever ended with a 6:55, the other finished with a 6:57. We didn't say much other than awesome race, gg's, ect. We were quite tired at this point and said everything we wanted to for the majority of the run.Final Fantasy X - Tidus Laugh% - Blind Speedrun - Part 1 of 2andy2018-08-13 | I have played this game casually and have beaten it.
