    Default New Timed Shroud Record!

    So, I got to talking with the crew, and we decided to finally put to rest this whole speed record thing in the Shroud. I mean 14 mins? Really? Pffft, we can beat 14 mins no problem.

    So, screenshots will follow with proof of the new speed record, but first I wanted to go over with everyone the amount of pre-work this type of endeavor entails. We had to send out people to liquor stores throughout the U.S. and perhaps even into Canada. There may be a whiskey shortage throughout North America for the next few days. Also, children may have had to have gone to bed without dinner or bedtime stories for a couple of nights, as their parents worked diligently as part of the Shroud-Record Preparation Team. Many potatoes had to be peeled, and tofu chickens de-feathered. No sacrifice was too great.

    So without further ado... the slide show: (please feel free to click on pictures for a larger image)

    Here, in our first picture, we begin the buffing process. We are fairly sure that we had already beat the measly 14 minute record at this point.


    After buffs, a moment to get ourselves together was necessary before stepping through the portal.


    Part One: There was some difficulty assessing our dps at the first portal, but we were certain we were still on pace for a new record.


    Before part two, we decided a quick siesta was needed to recoup.


    We have been told the most efficient method for a Shroud Time Record in part 2 is to bring all of the Lieutenants into the south central area, and kill them there. I questioned the wisdom of this decision as I saw our dwarven barbarian, Bottles, batted across the screen by the Troll.


    So... the trick to part three in a Shroud Time Record is simple. RUN!


    Part four can be tricky they say, so it is worth taking a quick moment to be sure everyone has ALL THE BUFFS THEY NEED!


    Oh ya, don't forget to prove you got the chests in part 3, or people will think you were cheating on your record setting pace.


    Part four... Everyone to the center! Watch the tail!


    Dance Party!


    Even a "seasoned" crew... or would that be marinated?... anyways... can meet with unexpected hitches in their road to making a record. That's okay though, room for improvement!


    It was nice of Harry to take a pose for our record setting finale!


    And the final time is...



    Good Luck beating that one! Everybody Drink!

    VERY Nice!

    I have a feeling this record will stand for at LEAST a couple of days if not longer!

    Grats!

    This^, in so many words, is how you say time and feedback on Lamannia are wasted.

    Id like to thank Mack and the guys for officially throwing my sleep schedule off. But sleep is overrated

    My family wants to thank you for finally letting me free so I can actually cook. Which making breakfast after a fraidnight like that what are they thinking? I hope its edible. Me about to crash again but had a feeling you were going to put our momentous achievement up for all to see.

    All I can say is that speed runs like this dont happen everyday nor should they but lots of booze and many bathroom breaks were involved ^_^

    The worst part was I had to keep asking Creegan for a freaking barkskin
    Things worthy of Standing Stone going EXTREME PREJUDICE™ on.:
    • Epic and Legendary Mysterious ring upgrades, please.
    • Change the stack size of filigree in the shared bank to 50. The 5 stack makes the shared bank worthless for storing filigree in a human usable manner.
    • Fixing why I don't connect to the chat server for 5 minutes when I log into a game world.
    • Fixing the wonky Lightning Sphere and Tactical Det firing by converting them to use alchemist spell arcing.
    • Redoing the drop rates of tomes in generic and raid loot tables.

    ROFL! That is classic and EPIC! If this doesn't convince TURBINE they waited too long to give us some new content, nothing will!!!!!!!!!

    Rep to the OP on behalf of Lost Legions - just for the sheer audacity of doing something so brilliantly stupid.
