Get home before the waves close
Find out which part of the trip failed
Did the opening stop short of the egg, or did you run out of time on the way home? Those are different problems. Keep the same nearby target for your next attempt so you can tell whether the change helped.
Watch the return, not just the outward trip
Nizar reaches a distant area but can't get back in the 07:38 to 08:13 and 09:43 to 10:24 sections of his October 1 video. He adds speed and tries again. Reaching the area wasn't enough. The video doesn't give a safe speed or timer for your current route.
Leave time for the pickup
Going to another egg and interacting with it both use the opening time. For the next attempt, turn back after the first pickup. Once that trip works, you'll have a better idea of whether another pickup fits.
Try fewer eggs even after a carry upgrade
At 11:33 to 12:05, Nizar upgrades carry and tries taking more eggs, but still doesn't finish every return. Extra capacity won't make the trip shorter. Use fewer pickups or an egg closer to home while you learn the route.
Be careful with escape shortcuts
LukeBlox mentions a side-area escape in his September 22 video, but the exact route hasn't been checked. Whether a Boss-area reset works now is still unclear. Use the ordinary route home rather than depending on that shortcut.
