Tips & Tricks

• If the player is choosing to allow the use of BP in HP and FP Only runs, they can use the available 3BP for Danger/Peril badges- or Cheap Move Badges like Power Jump. Danger/Peril badges can be particularly useful in FP Only and BP Only, since Mario only has 10 HP.
• They can also use FP Drain in TTYD to help with the lack of FP in HP and BP only runs.
• Additionally, in PM64 Stat Only runs the player may find it advantageous to use Fright Jars to avoid earning Star Points in some battles. This way they can avoid needing to level another stat due to reaching a stat cap.
