(Former WR) Cuphead DLC 100% Speedrun in

Описание: Finally got the deathless run that I was looking for. Very happy with this run, done with this category.

DLC 100% is a fantastic run that I've been enjoying a lot. Part of getting 100% includes obtaining the Divine Relic, and the fastest way of doing that in this run is to fight 5 DLC bosses on Expert mode with the Cursed Relic, one of which has to be Saltbaker.
The Cursed/Divine Relic is essentially a weapon randomizer. Every time you stop and restart shooting (like after releasing and repressing the Shoot button, dashing, or using an EX move), your current weapon gets rerolled to potentially any weapon in the game, even ones you don't possess.
It also sort of randomizes your charm (in a more predictable way), meaning that every X parries or dashes, you can expect Heart Ring, Whetstone and Smoke bomb to kick in (where X varies depending on the current level of your Relic).
Cursed Relic also brings Cuphead down to 1HP.
The way upgrading the Cursed Relic works is, it has an internal scoring system to it, and every time you beat a boss with the charm equipped, it will add points to the Relic. Once you get to 16 points, your Relic will become Divine. Different bosses give different values. For example, all the DLC bosses give 3 points, except for Saltbaker which gives 4 points. If you do the math, all 5 regular DLC bosses are barely not enough to get the Divine Relic, which is why Saltbaker is a required Cursed Relic boss with this route.

Needless to say, this run is incredibly difficult and chaotic, and I love it. I love the King's leap too, despite how inconsistent it can be. This might honestly be my favorite run to come out of the DLC.

To play on Expert mode on a new file, I used what's called the Fresh Expert Glitch. All you need is to go to a completed file, hover over Expert difficulty on any boss, and then quit to title screen. Once you start a new file, Expert mode will be selected by default, even though it is not supposed to be unlocked yet.
