I have some new ideas but it's not 100% ready
So the safe verm skip was thrown out the window cause of the menu opening causing time loss. Now there are new strats for killing Aquagoth 30 Crush + Call Beads. You only need to buy 2x5 Wax & 6x5 Limstone so that's 720 jewels in total.
I would fit early Blimp Cave buying & Safe Verm skip together like this:
So no Viper kill just 2 Skelesnails. I would not kill a mosquito to level to 66. I would head to Act 2 with 66 health with one kill away from leveling. First go to Nobilia to start timer, then change money and buy 2xnectar, 3xwings, pixie, atlas medallion.
Then head out but keep to the upper section near the whirlpool. One spider will appear kill it to gain a level and then step on to the whirlpool. No more enemies will attack you. Use 2 nectars just before dieing.
Then go back to Nobilia. Fastest way is:
Buy amulet (You don't even have to cheat him just get one for 30 rice if you're in a hurry!)
Buy Beads (You have enough money for 5 if you don't wanna buy 3 + Less dialog boxes)
Buy Chickens
Buy Jade Disk
Sell remaining Rice & Spice
You get just over 1000 jewels if you bought one amulet for 30 rice. Or get just over 1100 if you cheated the poor amulet merchant That's enough money to buy Crush ingredients.
Also this way you open less dialog menus then before I think so no time loss there.
Now head back and buy Crush ingredients. Then do the Atlas glitch and pick up rest of the ingredients nearby. And then wait in Nobilia for the timer to end.
Now there is an issue with this strat. You have less money beginning of Act 2 to get 5 Wings. You can get 2 Wings later when you have enough money but that's more screen transitions and would render the early Blimp buying useless.
There just needs to be about 75 more jewels to buy 2 more Wings. Or you don't buy Pixie Dust. Or you have some nectars or petals from Act 1? Or 2 more Wings.
Is there 1Pixie Dust in a good location to pick up? One Pixie Dust and the strat would work! That would be the easiest solution!
What about Nectars? Or Wings?
Of course you can just buy Crush ingredients during timer but after Atlas glitch for slighty less time gain.
I Think there can be some time saved on early Blimp buying + Safe Verm skip but yeah need to figure out a few more things for the strats to work
Hope what I wrote makes sense, english is not my first language.
