Early Missle Tank: Nofair

2006-01-27 10:31:42 am

There is a way to get the Missle Tank in Nofair that you needed the Power Grip to get. The one I'm talking about is the first Missle Tank you see in the semi-long Lava filled tunnel exactly on the left of Nofairs entrance. You need to infinite Bomb jump to get it.

I was wonder why this so easy to get early Missle Tank wasn't on the "Early Missle Tank" list. I've gotton it early dozens of times!

Maybe because it's faster to get it on your return trip from the power grip?

There's a lot of stuff that normally requires the Power Grip that can be done without the Power Grip (classic example) but most of it is purely academic because the Power Grip is unskippable, and for the most part is quicker to get after getting the power grip instead of infinite bomb jumping.

But I get that missile pack early all the time anyway, unless I'm going for speed.

I believe there used to be a vid of it along with a couple of other missile tanks on the site way back when ZM first came out, and everyone was seeing how easy IBJ was. In the long run, it's much slower to get it with IBJ since power grip is unskippable and you pass it on the way back anyways.
