this ones the charm

Great run! Manually timed it was 5:11.383 great job!

@Reload can you re-time this I goofed and forgot to start timer. it beats my previous score and I think its one of the quickest mage kills.Fan

Fantastic run! manually timed it and it was 4:33.416!  Keep it up can't wait to see how far you can bring that down!

@Reload I just got a really good time but I don't want to show the strat. Can I show you the video privately and still have it count or does it have to be public on the forum?

I'm not a fan of strat hiding. Removes the fun of speed running and limits the creativity of players. Once the time gets low the small optimizations come out and that's the best part of speed running imo. Also waiting until last moment might leave you behind because others who have faster times might do the same and you wouldn't be able to beat / catch up. if people are posting and competing there is less chance someone can horde a good run because they will be forced to catch up to the others competing openly.

@Reload are keybinds allowed?

mind explaining what you mean by that?

@MrProdigy im coming for ya!

@Reload 

 

sorry bout the music lmao 5:41

awesome run manually timed it as a 5:39.783!

Thanks everyone for posting runs! To encourage others to post runs I will still be giving out 10m's to people who post runs that follow the rules (first run only). Gonna be working with staff to make sure no one is abusing it by making multiple accounts.

Awesome run Retimed it down to the frame and you got 6:53.833!

@Reload

Just a note for future runs you can't use the starter pack. In your future runs be careful of that.

Awesome job mclovin! keep up the good work hope to see you optimize it and get a sick time! Paid 20m. Next 4 people to post a completed run get 20m!

 

Got an instance open in my clan chat "reload"

Just a heads up edited rules to include: No starter kit (must drop it or create a 2nd account cause it wont get one)

Got asked if safespotting was allowed... Updated rules: Safe spotting is allowed!

 

Heading to bed now will answer any questions in the morning!

Giant mole Speed run

 

 

Recently I had an idea of hosting a speed running event. I tried to think of something that wouldn't take forever but would still offer enough time to offer some variation on routing and choices.

 

The goal would be to start a new regular account and as fast as possible level the account and kill the Giant mole.

 

Since this is something I've never done before I've come up with some rules and some requirements.

 

Requirements:

All runs must be recorded fully using recording software of your choice (I would suggest obs)

Must use livesplits to time your run.

Account username must have "ReMole" in it

Rules:

 

 

 

Regular accounts

 

No starter kit (must drop it or create a 2nd account cause it wont get one)

No vote books

No Trading (of any sort including picking up others drops)

Timer starts as soon as you pick your account type (regular account)

Timer ends as soon as loot shows up on ground after killing mole.

 

Safespotting allowed.

 

Autotypers/3rd party assistance not allowed (ex. auto typers to type ::thieve)

You can use guilded altar. (suggest using "altar")

You can set up a private instance on an alt.

You cannot do anything that would benefit you from using another account. Besides having a private instance set up on an alt. (ex. Body blocking, swapping items, using vote books, weakening boss.)

May add more rules in the future if anything stupid happens that obviously shouldn't be allowed. (If i think its not fair i will ban it and runs using those methods will not count)

Use common sense.

When going in to the mole cave pause your timer as soon as you enter and start it back up as soon as you attack the mole.

 

If you try to cheat at all you will be disqualified.
