Any% Glitchless Route (Echoes Wii)
The Glitchless Any% route is one of the two currently existing Glitchless routes and the only one that has a category. This route has due to some rule changes in July 2017 changed into a more difficult and serious approach then it was before, especially because it is a leaderboard category for Trilogy since August 2017.
In November 2017, a more consistent dark suit skip was found, which makes the run faster and harder due to the faster death.
This route utilizes a lot of slope/bomb jumps and can be made easier depending of the skill level by just leaving all the hard things out and adding them step by step because it doesn´t change anything on the route (except Dark Suit) and it can still be done which makes it a beginner and advanced player friendly category.
The fastest single-segment time anyone has achieved with this route is currently Dragolina´s 2:20.
