Kihunter Shaft Manipulation from Save Room (Bottom) (Expert)
Red Kihunter Shaft
From: 3
Middle Right Door
To: 7
Junction At Middle Right Door With Bottom KiHunter Cleared

Notable: true

Manipulate the Three KiHunters to avoid all of them when entering the room from the Save room door. Stop on a dime on entry for positioning, because it is precise. Wait 1 second then Morph and roll left, past the swooping kihunter. Quickly jump to the higher level and run into the left wall. Wait there for half a second; it helps to jump into the wall. The 2 KiHunters should be grouped above Samus and out of the way.
