Resets obstacles: A, B, C, D

Farm cycle drops: 1 Sova

Note that breaking the left bomb blocks and either the crumble blocks or the other bomb blocks could make the Sova go in a loop without ever getting to the door (unless using a Super). Because of this it is advised not to break the bomb blocks. But if breaking them is necessary, it is possible to do so, even with a Power Bomb. Place the Power Bomb while the Sova is in the bottom left section of the room, while it is moving counter-clockwise.

Exit condition:

It takes the Sova about 25 seconds to hit Samus.

Dev note: The Power Bombs will solidify the bomb block, preventing remote acquiring on the right. The Power Bombs are not going to overload many PLMs.

A Blue Suit allows Samus to pass through the morph tunnel bomb blocks without overloading PLMS and be able to collect the right item. With Hi-Jump and SpringBall or IBJ, reach the top left item, quickly roll through it and the morph tunnel to reach the right item. After returning to the door, exiting G-Mode will collect both Items.

After teleporting, hold left and release Grapple to remain in a standing pose (and not be force crouched). X-ray climb a specific distance, performing exactly 15 X-Ray stand-ups. Then morph and roll out to the right. If Bombs, Power Bombs, or Screw Attack are available, this can allow more lenience in how far to climb.

Overload PLMs using the camera scroll blocks in the morph tunnel. Samus can fix the camera after exiting G-mode on the left. It is possible to wait for the Sova to appear on screen before going to the left, in order to ensure Samus won't touch it.

Entrance condition:

Requires:

"h_artificialMorphMovement"

Placing a Power Bomb a 0.5 to 1 tile away from the item plinth to bounce Samus onto it (where the right item usually is) while also overloading PLMs as the explosion hits the left item. Wait for the explosion to completely finish before touching the crumble blocks or they will remain solid. The camera will not scroll to the left side of the room, but it is possible to kill the Sova with the Power Bomb boost.

Dev note: FIXME: It is possible to avoid collecting 3 by using a second Power Bomb to boost through the item after PLMs are overloaded.

Touch both the item and the camera scroll blocks in the morph tunnel before PLMs are overloaded, then use either to finish overloading them. This will make it so that Samus can fix the camera after exiting G-mode on the left. It is possible to wait for the Sova to appear on screen before going to the left, in order to ensure Samus won't touch it. With only a Power Bomb boost to touch the item, it is not possible to fix the camera, but it is possible to kill the Sova.

Dev note: The only loss of access here is the camera fix, but there is another strat that can be used without.

IBJ or SpringBall jump into the morph tunnel and quickly roll thorough to avoid overloading PLMS and making remote acquisition impossible. Touch the item, and continue to the left side of the room before exiting G-mode to collect the item.

Avoid the right item if it is uncollected as it will overload PLMS if touched too many times in G-Mode. Either IBJ or SpringBall jump into the morph tunnel and quickly roll thorough to avoid overloading PLMS. The camera will not follow Samus through the tunnel so the collection is done blind. Due to the effects of Blue Suit, right direction must be pressed after the bomb explodes when returning.
