14% xGravity is one of the fifteen in-bounds 14% categories that have a known RTA completion. A total of 14 items are picked up during the entire run and focuses on using the X-Ray Scope and Gravity Suit for level progression.

This category is possible due to being able to kill Zebetites with only 10 missiles.

Morphball.png Bombs.png Charge.png Xray.png Gravity.png Varia.png Etank.png Reserver.png Reserver.png Missiles.png Missiles.png Supermissiles.png Supermissiles.png Powerbomb.png
