This is currently the method that would likely be used to beat Dodongo's cavern in an All Dungeons No Doors route. Because getting Iron or Hover Boots is basically out of the question due to having to open doors or needing to beat DC first to BA them, this is what I came up with. This route is pretty complicated but it's very cool in my opinion.
1.) Clip into Kakariko Talon House and set FW
2.) DHWW and play Bolero
3.) Open the SoS grotto and DHWW again
4.) Continue and leave the grotto
5.) Perform a glitchless groundjump to get past the guards and catch a fairy to from the gossip stone
6.) Do an invincibility glitch hookshot jump in the guard house to get on the seam
7.) Void warp to Jabu Jabu Boss
8.) aftering voiding out enough to reach 0 HP, zombie sidehop left after about 2-2.5 seconds from spawning in (when you hear the audio cue)
9.) Navigate on the out of bounds collision without falling and voiding out and without clipping back in. Follow my movement in the video
10.) Megaflip into the Jabu Jabu loading zone
11.) Beat King Dodongo Like normal and enter the Blue Warp
The Goron Ruby CS will play like normal. King Dodongo was already dead on this file which is why I didn't fight him. Coincidentally, this entrance takes you to Hyrule Castle again, so this can be chained to market for other DHWW possibilities if the route permits it.
