Chapter3a - Jharkendar  ( 04:58 )
Chapter3b - Circle of the sun  ( 11:04 )

Chapter5 - Secret Library  ( 01:43 )
Chapter6 - Irdorath  ( 03:03 )

A few comments:
In the 1st chapter the thief-guild is killed as fire-lizard (this doesn't waste 2 firerains, but it's not so easy to stay alive Wink), in chapter 2 the speed-bug ist initiated per combination of black ore and animal transformation (transformation seems to be a multiple bug-source), which increases your running-speed, what is quite funny and saves a lot of time, but it's also more difficult to stay in control of the character. Beside the going-through-closed-doors/walls-bug i've used some additional bugs like robbing traders with the freeze-bug (so you don't have to care much about gold&stuff), and killing some dragons per "destroy undead" with the target-bug (yes, you still can kill the undead dragon with "destroy undead", if you want to Wink). In chapter 5 you just need a captain, you don't need a crew, the captain will be at Irdorath anyway..

Great! This game and this run deserve more attention than they have. The speed bug was hilarious and how you ran around edges so quickly sometimes was nice too. At first i wondered why you didn't use the dialogue-strafe-to-skip-guards-trick, especially for the higher quarter of khorinis and lord hagen, but i guess it costs too much time later because you'll have to pass them again.
The best trick in my opinion was that you summoned skeletons against dragons and targeted them, but hit the dragon, making the game think you hit an undead target, to kill the dragon instantly ( think about this twice Wink ).
Maybe i'll challenge you for the next addon/game of Gothic 3.

2 questions:
1. Did you do this run in a single segment again? Imo it's really impressive to do such long, route-intensive runs.
2. When you killed the undead dragon, you targeted an undead orc. How did you hit the dragon? The orc was quite far apart on the left. Is the hitbox of the dragon that big?

Thanks for feedback Wink

No, it's not single-segmented, and why "again"? - All my runs are segmented (i just cut the save&load-screens), because there is too much, that can go wrong and is out of control, so a single-segment-run would take more time and patience i have.
Nevertheless there are rather large segments in this run, because the high-speed is lost if you save&load, so for example the chapters 4,5 and 6 are all part of 1 segment. I've done this segment many times, and sometimes i was killed by the undead dragon, although he was frozen - this bug was not so nice, just imagine this would happen in a single-segment beginning from the start..

The angle between orc and dragon was small enough, and the dragon's hitbox big enough..
