General Advice
You will have to ascend the tower with Trevor. This is one of the more annoying levels to speedrun as you have to fend off Medusa Heads as you climb the vertical areas. A trick is to try to play the level in whichever way you feel most comfortable with all the time, to try to get similar medusa spawn patterns that you're good at dealing with. Once getting Grant, leaving the tower is generally easier, as descending is far quicker plus you now have Grant's set of movement skills.
Strategies
4-0D
4-0E Boss Fight
- You generally want to have full health entering this boss fight to have more room to improvise during the Cyclops fight.
- Stand on the block to the left of the second coffin and start throwing axes as the ghost enters the left coffin. After throwing 6 of them, step forward a bit and continue throwing. You should be able to deflect one of the bandages with your axe throws.
