    It's already been made quite a bit easier than before

    I should have done it with level select its way easier this way

    It was interesting reading up on how this went from 80 seconds when I did it all the way to 100 seconds now. My thoughts on it are the same as they were 5 years ago in the games forum.

    Really hard but just focus on each section and reference the video. If you get to the rocks with 40s or a bit less to spare, you should be good.

    Tricky, nice.

    Did it after about one million tries! It was impossible for me to follow the exact same route as the video, getting the mushroom at the start. Only when I changed tactics did I have more success.

    Skipping that initial mushroom keeps Mario's early momentum up, no stopping before the bridge. About half way the bonus ? block between the 2 sky islands stops Big Mario so you need to jump over it, but Little Mario can run underneath. That makes the movement to get past the koopa and flying head smoother, and on to the moving platforms.

    Then I got the mushroom from above the cannon, and went from there like the video over the rocks/spikes. My exact route after getting the mushroom was slow (over the first pipe to avoid the 3 runners, under the second to avoid the cannon), but with the seconds saved earlier I found doing it that way easier for me and had just enough time. As marshallward said, when I saw I was at the rocks at about 344 I knew I'd done it.

    I think after this was nerfed this is now a lot easier than 4.1. Here it took me only few tries but on 4.1 it took hours.

    The problem is that you probably will force yourself to do this on hard because you cannot select the easy version.

    I still think these speed run cheevos ruin the set for most people. Why not move them together with the other ones in an own subset?

    This challenge was real agony, finally got it after 40 minutes (as a non-speedrunner) and i got it at 1 second difference... I agree with Sandro, these achievements should be subset for speedrunners, not here. Real, pure, suffering.
    KazeGeemu 27 Jul 2024 23:51
    Agree with this. Separate this cheevos to subset

    This is a proper achevement. Good luck on hard or soft core.
    koxufoxu 3 Aug 2024 19:46
    was grinding for this whole day, pretty hard. Did it last possible second
    Yo12390 4 Aug 2024 10:34
    Finally! Took like 50+ tries lol
    robiwan 23 Aug 2024 07:55
    Beat it after countless tries with 310 on the clock. I hope I never have to revisit this level again.
    Neonsoldaat 27 Aug 2024 15:44
    i cant do it at all so i wont master this gae. and that effing sucks since this one and the other speedrun are the last two i need to aster it but it is impossible for me. i hate this kind of acihevement. Like i dont mind an challenge but this is too TAS like and i lack the skill to do it
    Neonsoldaat 27 Aug 2024 19:04
    Update still no luck after 4 more hours of trying i havent even reach the boulders once so i am going to softcore and give up because these 2 speedrunners achiev are effing impossible. Hate the person who created them (figurely not literally ofc love in real life to all)
    sandro4912 27 Aug 2024 19:48
    What baffels me most with these ones is that there is a bonus set with other speed run cheevos. Really dont get why these 2 levels are not also there
    HylianBrat 15 Sep 2024 13:54
    Holy crap! I did it! Took so many tries and I finish with 5 seconds. Phew good luck guys!
    TamariZ 11 Oct 2024 18:41
    These types of achievements are the worst
    mrstealyoursock 17 Dec 2024 01:10
    This is the hardest one, but keep using the video for reference and you’ll get it
    auds 8 Feb 2025 23:09
    this definitely takes a lot of effort. this is especially true for ppl, like me, who weren't too comfortable w the controls / game. i just picked this up 3 days ago bc a friend recommended me it & went for the achievements. cheered w them too once this finally popped lol.

    i agree w most ppl here though, this should be in the *already existing* bonus subset !!
