Only real mistake was failing lucky 38 clip #3. I got bad damage taken too so i had to spend extra seconds binding healing items.

This is a Fallout: New Vegas speedrun in the Any% category, which means any glitches and exploits (Except console commands and game modifications) are allowed.

The character build is based on getting 100 speech and getting the platinum chip as fast as possible, so we choose a female character for the Black Widow perk, 10 Charisma, tag speech and select Good Natured for maximum speech. We also want to get 45 survival later on for the Travel Light perk (10% extra movement speed).

The glitches/exploits used in the run all involve quicksaving and quickloading (abbreviated as QSQL), and it's used for skipping NPC dialogue (Doc Mitchell notably), clipping through walls and to get a glitch called Speedcripple.

We get Speedcripple using the Mercenary's Grenade Launcher from the Courier's Stash DLC, because it's faster and easier to pull off the glitch with.

When you cripple your leg, your speed is set to 0, then bring back to 60% of your normal speed. By quickloading just before getting crippled, you can confuse the game into giving you 60% without actually being put to 0 ( because we don't actually really get crippled). So you get a huge speedboost, and walk at 160% of your normal speed.

If you want to watch a run without these exploits I recommend checking out the Single Segment category at http://www.speedrun.com/fnv#Single_Segment_Glitchless
