(Edit) we improved the route:
After Getting Tunic: Start F2, S+Q, Start F1, Save, Activate BiT
After 7x04 RBM: Save [BtT], Go to Spiral, Activate BiT
This saves 13.21s more so 42.07 secs faster in total.

28.86 secs faster but pretty risky. The Extending Blow (6:26) only has 2 chances and basically run over if you fail both (can safety save but waste time, 1 reset is already slower than old route). Also, this route forces 6 hearts horde because you use different files for Skyview and horde.

The route idea is from Azer67:
- No corrupt file and copy the early game file (one for Eldin pillar + tunic, one for 7x04 RBM early).
- 7x04 RBM early and combine it with Eldin OoB RBW.
- Extending Blow after ET to get a scene flag 9x04 from Mogma for Batreaux Door.
- S+Q and Save in ET on file 3 to use a scene flag 0x40 (Boss Door Opened) which triggers 2x08 in Behind The Temple for Rock RBM.
