Xenoblade DE 1.1.2 Normal Any% Speedrun in

First run of 1.1.2 normal using my new route featuring ch2 mechon farm, sword valley quests, along with many other changes. Record by 15 minutes. While this category is very unoptimized due to the unappealing nature of the length and grinding, the new route goes a long way in making it less of an arduous task to get through.

Major timelosses were a death on the way to believer's paradise, button UM skip in mechonis field costing over 4 minutes, random gadolt glitch losing a minute, and gadolt 2 was very bad. Run was solid and had pretty good rng otherwise (see: M71). Exp route didn't go totally as planned.

For those unaware, version 1.1.2 runs do not feature the tephra cave exploit to reach nearly lv50, which makes the run a lot more demanding.
