"If the N64 people want to skip Fire Arrows, let them get Din's Fire"

Interestingly, Din's Fire Route is 25 sec faster than Fire Arrows Route for N64 MST. It's still much slower than VC but got close a bit anyway.
If you're interested in the concept and detail of the route, please check this (The concept is in sheet 1, LACS FA Route is sheet 2, Child 2 DF + Bombs Early Route is sheet 3): docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1S7fC2hJGu_Lc6kmucEF5VoCogm9CZZM_uPjVSszedOE/edit?usp=sharing

Shoutouts to Hylian Freddy for nice find using DF: youtu.be/Z8FHstgutbY
Also thank you Adarax for checking comparison and some improvement idea.

DF route is faster (and cool imo), but it requires some hard tricks like WESS Escape, Shadow Boatkey Skip, Shadow Trial HESS Hoverslide and so on. Personally the worst thing is the route doesn't have good place to get HC for 5 hearts and you need to do 4 hearts Fire and Fire Trial if you want to go fast. Also bomb count is kinda tight in the second half of the route... so it's faster but just a new option for now I guess.

Btw I ignored some fast tricks for easier comparison. For example, technically DF route side can save more few seconds by superswim from HESS KZ Skip. But the timesave is barely if you do safely for consistently, so it's not worth to use: youtu.be/8v4ZFCGet0Y
The difference number can change if considered like that tricks, but these are only few seconds timesave in max. So it should be fine to ignore for route comparison.
