New Timed Shroud Record!

[Lost_Leader]

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!

Grats!

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 ^_^

[uhgungawa]

HA, I could beat that record in my sleep. Literally

[soupertc]

I have to say good man I am very impressed. The best shot is everyone sleeping at the altar!!!! Rep for you!!!

[QuantumFX]

The worst part was I had to keep asking Creegan for a freaking barkskin

[Big-Dex]

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.

[Vivanto]

Gotta hurry and beat this before they fix afk-timeouts in mod 9, better start holding the instance now

[Paleale]

How do we know one person didn't hop in, go afk for 40 + hours then invite the rest of the party? The only way to disprove this is to take a SS with a raid timer in the portal part, then again in the 5th part. Not that I want to dispute your record. This is just what I thought after looking at the SS.

I think we're going to need a fraps video to disprove that!

And a couple of TERABYTES of storage space.

I doubt YOUTUBE would host that one!

PS - I will add that the fact that they dared to bring up the wall in part 3 is hilarious! That looks like a good time!
