TR2 in 18h 42min's

[Chette]

As a fellow speed TRer I have to say I'm impressed! My best to date has been about 25 hours, with a 20% potion and no xp bonus, but I can't bring myself to do it all in one sitting (especially when I know I can't TR again for 7 more days he he).

Anyway, this is quite an accomplishment. Some people may say BAH, BOO, why would you do this? Why to test the limits of course The only thing left to do when you've done something 1000 times already is to try and do it better.

Many congratulations.

When we trio'd it last time, we had a 6 min elite run I believe and 5 min's on the other difficulties. I think you can squeeze it down to 4 min's, maybe. We just zerged to the end. Killing optional bosses on the way and picking up one shard if there was time. Splitting up a bit (one spearheading for the end). Shrining once, mostly because it's not much of a loss due to getting sprintboost back and full sp is naturally handy to be able to blast away more.

We used invis a bit at the end and just killed groups for the 100 needed, but mostly just killed most everything to avoid too much alert.

Also remember that the 3900 XP/minute was during the +25% weekend ...

Yeah I get it, will see about that tear, is prolly rly faster zerging to end than wasting time with shards unless a full party. And the xp/min ofc withtou scaling it's gonna be less, but with that barb idea you rly made my day :-D looking at my TR plan now I think from lvl 6 up I'll be able to do 3800/min even without the 25% scaling, we'll see, my biggest problem is getting reliable partners for this that will arrange that free day and join

Well the 3900 xp/min the worst you'd do a quest at (the filter) and then moving onwards to a new quest in the schedule. During the Xp +25% the average looking at the XP-potion was over 5000 XP/minute. If you discount running in areas etc it was higher still.

I gotta ask this one as well, is tear that good rly? I can believe the 2nd normal run was aboe 3900 per min??? DO you do spluit up all optionals in 3 ppl? Or just all zerg to end? I ran this so many timewith differne tgroups, and yeha in a full group doign all optionals on norm it was nice xp, but in 2man-3man I just never could get so much out of it, usually rna just EH...

we are only rushing for the end in tear, only grabbing named mob optionals and 1 tear on the way, also splitting up on the way to optimize speed,

Actually I was corrected here by one in our group. He was sure it was quicker than 6 minutes elite. Since we did 4 minute runs on all difficulties zerging for end today in a TR I guess he was right.

Gonna post a few screenshots from fast completions in good quests, these images is not from the record run though as we didnt take the time to take screenshots then.

These are just a taste on what sorc builds with barb lvl are capable of when tring.

On this completion we had all 3 towers done allmost at the same time, all runs completed on 4-6 mins, exept for the elite run ofc, think thats close to 9 mins.

We also get 3 min completions in Shadow Crypt, dont have a screenshot for that, but also think you can get that without sprint boost, hard to get the use of sprint boost in there.

The trick is to use the optimized 2 man split to get all 8 gears and end up in final room at about the same time, realy awesome xp that way

wow 4 min tear then i bet its worth farming :-D never seen bette rthan 7 min I think, tho didnt have barb lvl then :-D sounds nice the monastery I rly gotta learn to zerg that quick, it's th eone quest i wasnt able to farm so well, xorian im surpised you didn't ge tin under 2 min shado wknight well thats wha ti was saying in a 4 mna that can be done in 1 min for sure, who know sif 3 or 4 is better, tho I scalignis a factor that you feel even when youre an uber sorc, mainly quicker DA...
