It isn't a difficult achievement, but it is humorous in its absurdity. It was also nice to net ~4000 per minute in a quest at level 1.

Kobold still hates you.

Love watching Malandis rip kobolds up.

spectacular

Just posted about this in a raid channel and got everyone talking, then 'accidentally' got your Youtube link wrong and sent them to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfVsfOSbJY0 instead.

Hilarity ensued.

[mystafyi]

wow. I never thought about solo'ing them at level 1! buying time and time is money would be simple to 1 star on epic and level 20. that should net a quick ~80k for 4 quests.

See this just proves that arti's are overpowerd :P

NERF BAT INCOMING!

(Is a joke, not a neg rep farm attempt lol)

[9Crows]

no offense and i certainly could be wrong. but isnt that an exploit since a lvl1 cant normally enter a epic challenge,and again i could be wrong ime not a sage on all things ddo

[Deathdefy]

Exploit is probably a bit harsh for entering stuff below min level. I'd call it a workaround.

so how do you work around it ? have a lvl 20 in the party?

[Deathdefy]

No idea. Just saying whatever he did isn't what I'd classify as an exploit.

[sirgog]

Yeah, how'd you get in the door at all.

The min level is 20.

The door lockout of 19 and unders is a soft lockout, just like Waterworks part 2's lockout of people that have not done part 1 is a soft lockout.

In either case if you are grouped with someone that's flagged (flagged meaning being level 20 in this case) you can go in.

As for whether it is an exploit - is it an exploit to cheat the soft lockout in Waterworks part 2? No. Neither is it an exploit to voluntarily weaken your group by taking in lower level characters than what the content is designed for.

[Osharan_Tregarth]

heh. Nicely done.

[voodoogroves]

Amusing.

These I find the absolute easiest to farm in their simplicity.

I also find it amusing that you're so focused on time, you start to recall before the completion so the completion hits right before the recall ;-)



I am half-tempted to level a toon using JUST the challenges and BTA twink gear - but I fear I'd miss my bank and bag space.

Great work.. Was this the first attempt? I only ask because nearby purples and a 3 minute wait for your first 'incoming' are ideal conditions. A great video and idea nontheless.

you can always eat a kobold cookie by the foreman to generate 1 purple crystal for harvesting.(very long cooldown though)

The incoming may have been luck for sure.

The nearby crystals aren't as uncommon as you may think once you get used to the patterns.

most beautifull lvl 1 run i have ever seen. u got a bit lucky with the purples being places so near the base but man, that was a fantastic run nonetheless. very well done
