LowDamage analysis (for PAL and NTSC, inbounds, without SpaceTime-beam): (unfinished)

Lowest amount of damage (to Samus´ health) such that the game can still be beaten (even humanly) is exactly 300 (caused by a single Rainbow-beam by MotherBrain2 if and only if Varia was collected to cut 600 damage down to 300).

Set of all LowDamage-Low% options:

[Core = (Interior, Varia, Charge) = (E2, E-Tank, Varia, Charge)]

[Interior = (E2, E-Tank)]

[E2 = (Ball, 1*M, Bomb, 1*SM, 1*PB)]

Gravity-Ice:

(Core+1*M+1*SM, Gravity, Ice, 2*E-Tank) ;

(Core+2*SM, Gravity, Ice, 2*E-Tank) ;

(Core+1*M+1*SM, Gravity, Ice, 1*E-Tank, R-Tank) ;

(Core+2*SM, Gravity, Ice, 1*E-Tank, R-Tank) ;

(Core+1*M+1*SM, Gravity, Ice, 2*R-Tank) ;

(Core+2*SM, Gravity, Ice, 2*R-Tank).

[Gravity is needed since Samus starts with more than 00 health, and lava in Norfair has to be entered. Ice is necessary for a damage-less Zebetite-Skip (which can be achieved by spinjumping into the first Zebetite in order to gain temporary invincibility without losing health since the Zebetites as solid (non-moving) creatures do 0 contact-damage.]

For humans, currently the lowest amount of items for LowDamage-Low% is 15% (by adding Plasma to make damage-less Norfair-Ridley fight easier).

The unique LowDamage-Max% option consists of all items except (14-5)= 9 E-Tanks (since otherwise MotherBrain2 will add further attacks if Samus´ health is more than 299 after the first Rainbow-beam even if Varia was turned off appropriately right after the Rainbow-beam), hence the maximum is 91%.
