Managed to get this level under 1 minute. It still looks a bit sloppy, but it shouldn't be understated how hard it is to speed through the Stone Sentinel Maze as Benkei. Very easy to get stuck at walls. I'll still probably try to improve this later on.

Team: Muneshige Tachibana for doing angled glitch. Benkei for fast navigation. Wang Yuanji for fast character switching and damage dealing.

The wall is very high over the Stone Sentinel Maze gate, so it's better to go under than over it. Therefore I decided to use angled glitch in this route.

For doing angled glitch, you need to be on a ladder when a Samurai-style Musou runs out. I picked up Muneshige Tachibana at lv. 1 for this purpose since not only can he start the angled glitch, he can also breach all types of walls with his sprint attack.

The top three best Samurai-characters for angled glitch are Yukimura Sanada, Muneshige Tachibana and Kiyomori Taira - they all have the ability to quickly start the glitch AND also breach all types of walls. However, since I'm mainly using Yukimura as an infinite jumper he has a massive Musou pool. It would be a bother to reset him to lv. 1 between different run attempts, so I was glad Muneshige turned out to be an apt replacement. Kiyomori isn't bad either, but his animations are a little bit slower than Muneshige's or Yukimura's, so I would say he is strictly the worst of the three in this regard.

I start the level mounted on horse because it's faster to activate a Samurai-style Musou while mounted.

There's nothing stopping you from using Benkei through the entire Maze, other than the difficulty of navigating it.
