Say what you want about Corruption being awful, it's seen a completely unexpected amount of breaks over the past couple months and is actually becoming a very interesting speedrun. Since Paraxade's 2:09 segmented run, we've seen huge skips like: Early Elysia Nova Beam wallcrawl Spider Ball skip Phaaze wallcrawl Skyway Sequence wallcrawl Ship Grapple skip MBI Bosses Early Grapple Voltage Screw Attack skip And we're closer than ever before to a legitimate "Norion Skip" which would skip both the Norion Generators and the Ridley fight. Actually, I want to be up-front about this, 90% of the reason I'm making this thread is so I can make that trick a reality. At the moment, this trick is very much like the alternate 21% BSJ in Metroid Prime 1, unbelievably close to possible. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kooyMMasfBM). The theoretical Secret World in this game requires a prefect Spring-Ball-2BSJ-Ghetto-Jump-Instant-Morph, which I'm praying is enough height to land on my target. Trying to optimize this without being able to view addresses is simply not happening, and I don't have enough experience or knowledge to find them on my own. Position and vertical speed are all I should need. Any help would be great, if this is solved, I think we're looking at ~1:10 territory, maybe even sub-hour.

Not a bad idea to bring this up here, as a corruption TAS would look pretty sick with those recent discoveries. I hope you won't run into some desync issues again though, or does dolphin work well for Corruption ? Anyways get those adresses for him !

Are there videos of Ship Grapple skip and Screw Attack skip? Both of them are acquired in the current RTA WR.

Screw attack skip is just a bunch of small things, mostly BSJs and Boost SSJs. It's always been a skippable item but is useful on bosses for killing them quickly, a TAS would just use MBI to one hit kill everything though. Link to video

A demonstration of Boost Farming in Metroid Prime 3. If Boost Ball Aiming is turned on, it's possible to 180 degree pivot without losing any speed, allowing you to build upwards of 48 speed (the boosting cap) in a relatively small space.
Also this is a Prime 1 video, but the same glitch works in Corruption (and Echoes), the interesting thing about the latter two games is that they have speedcaps on Boost Ball, and so this tech actually makes clipping inbounds/through the backside of walls possible in places where it previously wasn't. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V66VFqVxuE Edit: here it is in Corruption https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgzdRumgfrw

It seems someone is making a TAS of this game on the Japanese version. Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRljmsucVWI Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vM8F3j3l9Ys

Infinite Speed is now possible practically anywhere that Samus can get out of bounds. Previously it relied on very very specific collision requirements and only a handful of viable spots existed in game. Now any floor is fair game as long as it's outside the aether box of the previous room Link to video

Thanks for the link! Having watched the whole thing, I was entertained. Granted, I could not sit through all the constant out of boundary activity. Once we get to see the author engage in various battles and obstacles, that is what I truly found to be quite entertaining. The fight versus Gandrayda was absolutely ridiculous. I am curious how this run would differ from an any% run. I assume an any% run would also rely heavily on out of boundary manuevering.

Any% has a fair share of out of bounds sequences too, but the most egregious ones in low% are not shared (as far as I know). The awfully long and boring wallcrawl done to collect Boost Ball early is not in Any% last I heard, it's simply much faster to go collect the Grapple Beam and use the Grapple tracks to traverse the massive rooms of Elysia inbounds. I think this applies to most later wallcrawls in Elysia as well, if you have that item, it's simply better to stay inbounds when possible.
