− | 5. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUqsXuNam6k Silo LTK 2:13] - This is easily the LTK level I've spent longest on. It's one of the hardest LTK levels to complete even with a safer strat and I'd say it's the hardest LTK level to speedrun on because of all the risks you have to take and the knowledge and practise required to learn exactly where all the guards are going to be which can be completely different depending on how quick you are during the level. | + | 5. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Qhw_v6OKeQ Runway 00 Agent 0:36] - This took me 110 hours to get. I had 11 x 0:37s and hundreds of near misses on failed 0:36s. It requires a very underplayed strat that has very little margin for error which takes loads of practise and patience to complete. |

The level is not as difficult to complete as people think because once you're past the first room then the rest isn't that hard if you use a cautious strat but it does get very difficult when you're speedrunning and having to take lots of chances. I remember struggling a bit to beat the 00A 9:30 cheat target time back in 1999 so it was great to beat that on the DLTK setting. | | 3.
