+The simplest way to exit the Ghost Dancers room with the correct RNG is to simply hold right. Alternatively, you can save 0.5s by doing a full backdash followed by a full jump when you reach the edge of the top platform, so that you land on the edge of the platform below and slide off. You should exit the room with RNG index 43 / 0x1A609F0A.
