Somaria doors are a class of powerful glitches performed by pushing a block from the Cane of Somaria into a door transition.

Technique

North and West

North and west doors are easy to glitch as the farthest pixel inside of them is 1 pixel away from the transition. Simply snap as deep as Link can go then push a somaria block.

South and East

South and East doors are slightly more difficult to glitch, as the farthest pixel Link snaps to is 2 pixels away from the door. Instead, Link must be positioned carefully to properly glitch the door:

Normal doors

  1. Door Juke to the snap position 2 pixels past the transition
  2. Pick up a somaria block and face out of the door
  3. Throw the somaria block
  4. While the somaria block is in the air, move 3-5 pixels (East glitching) or 2-4 (South glitching) back out of the door
  5. Tap the direction into the door to push the somaria block and glitch

As a reference when using the practice hack:

Door type Coordinates to look for
Farthest snap Farthest possible Snap after juke Most shallow glitchable Deepest glitchable
East (X coordinate; white number) xE8 xEA xF0 xEB xED
South (Y coordinate; yellow number) xE0 xE3 xE8 xE4 xE6
