This saves somewhere around 0.8s over equipping on the bench like normal. Likely not faster with RTA menuing.
Explanation:

The first thing that happens is that I use a trick simply called 'double click' where you select the file you want to load by clicking it with both mouse buttons on the same frame, this gives control immediately upon loading in and skips the time normally spent getting off the bench, it also gives a state called bench storage. This normally saves ~2s over a normal load in but the problem in this case is we still need to equip the dashmaster charm.

Because we have bench storage from the double click we can actually equip the charm anywhere without sitting on a bench but if you ever open inventory with bench storage you lose control and get softlocked. To get around this I perform interaction storage on Iselda's door to open quick map and read the text at the same time. As I navigate the menus to equip dashmaster I mash through the text since the textbox closing gives control avoiding the softlock.

From there it is normal movement to the well with a couple added inputs to remove the bench storage on the way.

Edit: Nevermind I was wrong about being able to get rid of bench storage, this strat isn't usable lol
