Hellfire and splash needle serve the same purpose: they are long range and damaging spells. It can be cast well in advance and hits above and below her so it is super useful in almost every stage. From all my experimenting, I have found the following spells to be the most useful for my purposes: ice needle, splash needle, hellfire, skeleton gunman, and R.fireball. For a speed run, those aren't very useful. Most of the Charlotte users I see online tend to stick with R.Skeleton and R.Fireball. I want to avoid walking up slopes because walking speed is reduced there I always walk down slopes because it looks faster, but I don't think it actually IS faster. I can also gain a bit of time by sliding off the last bit of a ledge so it cancels. The more I can walk straight, the faster I'll be. When I do jump, I want it to last as long as possible and attack as many times as possible to clear away enemies. Therefore, I want to minimize the number of times I land from jumps. As you land, you hesitate for a few frames. The main 'speed tricks' for Charlotte are pretty basic.

As a result, figuring out how to kill each boss was rather tricky. Her spells cost a lot of MP (unlike R.Dagger) and most of the BDC-able spells either have poor range or useless trajectory. Her offensive options are many, but very few of them are actually useful. Her IL table is over 4 minutes slower than Simon for this reason alone. Therefore, she has to do the 'intended route' for every stage. She can't dive kick, which means that any and all speed tricks in this game are not available to her. Also big thanks to Redarremer for letting us use his file while at AGDQ and for helping with brainstorming.Ĭharlotte is the worst character in this game. Also big shoutouts to Zyre for doing the first runs as Charlotte and giving me some really good ideas for routes.
