Map name: Loading Docks
Map author: Scott "Faust" Parish
I see the loading, I guess, in the crate room, but not sure where the docks are. Anyway, this map isn't anything much to talk about; it's very empty, the only notable thing about it is really crate maze. The outside area is very oddly barren and just too big, it takes a lot of time to traverse for the monsters there normally (this route sorta solves that, more on that later). The mastermind, literally every time I got there, was almost immediately frozen by some monster and annihilated, so it's not much of a fight. You get enough ammo, though, and some fun weapons to use, so all in all, it's still kinda fun to max.
This route really came naturally, at least the majority of it; the map is very linear, and it's really obvious where to go for the fastest way through the map. The main improvements over ELMLE was not forgetting sixty cells in the crate maze, and the outside strat, which is to just shoot so the monsters go inside, something that happened by chance when a caco opened the door. It turns out, the caco opening the door was very likely too, so that ended up happening in this run. The door opening does mean I can decide whether I go in there at all, and I choose to go in for the 100 cells and backpack on one side, since that seems useful, but the other side just has one each of a box of shells, rockets, and ammo, which seems pointless.
The rest is just hoping you don't get fucked by monsters roaming, which is pretty bad, the outside ones often go somewhere random too. And in the crate, I would always miss a caco, which, based on this run, seems probably because it would climb some crates and be basically invisible. In this run I luck into it thanks to infinite height. In this run, the cacos and monsters outside grouped up pretty amazingly tbh, I got a good infight out of them and then could rocket them in a really good formation. Overall, this was much faster than I expected, given this was only like 76ish attempts, so I'm pretty happy tbh. With how little time I really spent on this, I feel at times I'm still a bit lacking confidence on what to do, but the luck makes up for much of that IMO. The ending was pretty fast too, and I didn't spend any time looking for missing monsters, instead just praying I got them all, heh.
