Any% Toorum

Toorum run is double movement speed but quarter combat speed.
Since you have about 50/50 of each in a full run, it is slower than regular Any%

There is a slight audio delay (sorry about that!), it is caused by an option in OBS. I will try and fix it for my next run

Floor 1 : I decided to use the trap in the 2nd Blue Gem room to get rid of some Snails at the loss of exp.
Floor 2 : I thought I could skip a Crowern in the room with the 2nd Brass Key but I got cornered instead, had to fight an extra Herder after the portal
Floor 3 : Got blocked by a Giant Spider after picking up the Tome of Health, fell down the pit in the Crystal room but I luckily didn't lose too much time
Floor 4 : Had to fight an extra Crowern blocking my path after the Catacombs puzzle, lost 35 seconds to the 1st Scroll grab (bad quicksave) and lost 10 seconds to the 2nd one
Floor 5 : Fell in the pit while trying to pick up the Iron key but I meant to go down there anyway for the bombs (I still lost some time trying to resume the switch puzzle), had to stay the entire 30 seconds on the tile for Lurker Vest (thank you Mr. Crab!), I think I saved around 35 seconds picking up this Huntsman Cloak instead of the one on Floor 3
Floor 6 : The Giant Crab was blocking the path before the Fire Blade so I had to bait him out, took a small detour for the Lurker Pants but I think it was worth it, I discovered a shortcut by mistake (yay!) by falling in a pit after the Sword of Nex
Floor 7 : Not the best pattern for Slimes so I had to fight an extra one, I could probably save some time if I get a good pattern in the last Uggardians room instead of using secret entrance to Floor 8 to pick up the Skull
Floor 9 : Pretty lucky Lizard Maze overall - only had to fight 3 Ice Lizards, messed up the Pillared Hallway and lost 7 seconds
Floor 10 : Slept a bit too much after the spectral orb puzzle and had to fight an extra Goromorg which cost me 45 seconds, fell in a pit in the 2nd Ornate Key room and lost about 10 seconds, got blocked by a Goromorg before the portal to the Prison Key
Floor 12 : Very clean
Floor 11 : Very clean
Boss fight : Lost a cycle after removing the 2nd part (forgot to quickload), had to reset since Goromorg blocked the 4th part, first half of the fight was a bit messy with enemy spawn

Overall : I am very happy with this PB! It is a nice improvement over my last run and my sum of best shows I can shave another 4-5 minutes. I kept a Bone Amulet thinking I would need it for a puzzle but it is for 100% and not Any% (muscle memory..), ended up with 2 extra Blooddrop Blossoms which means I should use more in the middle of the run instead of fighting with empty energy
