I'm not sure if this qualifies as "early", but I've found that you can skip getting this Missile Tank with the Screw Attack from above if you use this hidden ledge I found:



Again, not sure if this should count as early, but something neat I noticed.

It can also be done by shinesparking, as shown in this video http://www.metroid2002.com/fusion/speed_tricks_aqa_ii.php

I never really knew that you could shinespark through those green things XD  But yes, I have to agree that this is definitely an early missile tank, because otherwise, you'd have to wait until the screw attack.

I always assumed you were supposed to spark through those things, I did so on my first play-through

I didn't actually.  I didn't even know you could destroy them until after I got the Screw Attack, and I always thought that you could not get past them as well :/  Plus, I suck at shinesparking, which can be seen in this video I posted on YouTube:   I am posting this only to demonstrate my suckiness with shinesparking.

I got my fastest time on this game several years ago when I played through this game like three times in a row, and that tank and another annoying Power Bomb Tank were actually surprisingly easy, but now...my god...
it's not early.

Ok, thanks anyways for the confirmation!
Don't cross me, or I will kill you!
You can actually get it SO much earlier. You know the first early one? Well. Go to that room, Morph in the hole (both after lowering the water level, of course!) and go all the way right. Neither the Kago cage nor that infaltable thing is blocking it. Those come in around when you get the Diffusion Missiles.

The Kago is always there
i think maybe he's talking about the first kago cage? because you can't get the one on the right anyway without the gravity suit.

Yes, BioSpark, and I was hoping I'd see a reply from you anyway. And the Kago is there instead of on the right around when you get the Gravity Suit. (BTW, great TASing! I've been begging my parents to get me the Super Metroid emulator so I can try)

Oh right yeah, forgot about that
pretty sure it's in my early items tas. so i guess it's already known or whatever.

Well, nice job anyway. And it's not on here, I checked.

Oh, and Razorflame? I had a LOT of trouble getting that Energy Tank! I failed like 50 times before I finally got it. You've got to have precise timing...That one sucked.

The pencil button in the far upper-right corner of your post allows you to edit it rather than make a new one when you have something to add.

By sheer coincidence, I've used it three times on this post so far.

we don't care how many posts people make. it's not really a big deal, as long as they're not one word posts or something.

I feel the same way, but it's good to be aware of.

Oh. I didn't know that. thanks
