Items

Climbing the Room Without Boost/Spider Ball

It is possible to climb to the top level of the room without either Boost Ball or Spider Ball. These items are normally required to get to Tower of Light, but there are multiple ways of circumventing this.

With Space Jump

The following methods are mostly used in any% and 100% runs.

Scan Dash Method

This method entails performing a Scan Dash off of the scan point on the half-pipe. With a good enough dash, it is possible to land on the crumbling ledge and get to Tower of Light early.

Vine Method

One of the vines sticking out of the wall has standable collision. By jumping to it, it is possible to easily make the jump to the ledge.

Without Space Jump

Mostly done in low% or during randomizers. There are two additional rocks sticking out of the wall that have standable collision. Using these, it is possible to get onto the standable vine without Space Jump. From there, it's a matter of using a scan dash to get onto the ledge.

Half Pipe Item

From the platform leading to Tower of Light, it is possible to reach the missile expansion with a scan dash with or without Space Jump.

Escape the Pit without Morph Ball/Space Jump

If you don't have the Space Jump Boots, it is still possible to get out of the pit. This is done by jumping onto the roots and performing a Scan Dash off of the bombable section of the wall.
