You can get [[Dark Beam]] as your first item in Agon, whether you [[Item Loss Skip|skipped item loss]] or not.
One of the first items to be collected in most categories is the [[Dark Beam]]. Speedrunners of Echoes have found increasingly fast ways to collect this item in as little time as possible, leading to the creation of two separate routes. These routes start in two different rooms:
*[[Mining Plaza]]: Utilizes [[Sandigger]] and is overall easier, but slower
*[[Agon Temple]]: Faster, but requires doing a complex SW that is difficult to learn

* Do the [[Sandigger]] SW and wallcrawl all the way to [[Command Center]], and then go left from here. The next room needs to be force loaded, so shoot the first door and walk near it to start the loading process. Be absolutely certain to not hold R when transitioning to this next room, since that crashes the game for some unknown reason.

* From here you have two options: you can fight [[Dark Samus 1|Dark Samus]] before Dark Beam or not fight her.

===Rest of Wallcrawl===
The rest of this wallcrawl is identical to what is done in the above slower method, since at this point the two routes converge.
