Competition: The Amazing Race in Dark Agartha

Concept: Show us your build and record your run through Dark Agartha. Event ends 30 June and 3 winners will be selected based on the categories below. Each winner will be awarded 100k MoF! For simplicity, I will be the judge of all entries. Enter as many categories as you like. You can enter multiple categories in one video, or separately. Good luck and happy racing!

Last minute change: ALL ENTRY WILL RECEIVE 50k MoF if not chosen as one of the winners

1. Speed-Master: Fastest time to arrival at Gate Keeper's platform. Run it at your max Elite level or 3 levels below your max (i.e. if your max is E9, you can run it at E6)

2. Fearless: Run DA at your most challenging Elite level, kill the Gate Keeper before time runs out!

3. Guide-Master: Make the best video with text/talk commentary to guide players for the best chance to succeed in DA runs

I need 10-12 min to do e10. OTZ Depends on having long branch day and some bosses being, uh, harder, like this oni two days ago. No 5 min runs for me in any near future.
I'm curious how are you going to judge Fearless. 🤔 Check who had it worse yet managed to finish? :D

I can't give out all my judging criteria as they're in development and rather fluid...but you got the right idea!

Hopefully you remember to turn on your recorder each run until you achieve your goal. You have until the end of the month so you have multiple tries.

I consider this to be a fearless run, as I'm finishing E10 with slightly below 1k IP, with one death and a few minutes left on the clock. :lol: The character sheet was taken a few days later, but I don't think there were any changes compared to the time of the run before our living room redoing project. I changed the anima allocation to 85% Damage 15% Survivability at the start of the run, which is reflected in the character sheet.

I want to do a guide but not really sure I'll be able to do it in time. And I hoped to get more fights with certain abilities but in these three weeks there weren't many somehow. :| Then I'm sure OK not having any prizes for this and just do OK guide. 🤔

Since there's no entry yet for guides, you could get it started and post what you have by 30Jun, collect the prize for 1 and only entry, and update it later :D

1. When I watched it last night on youtube it had 2 views :shock: - and mine was probably one of them - so I single-handedly doubled your ratings! (You're welcome...)
2. It must be so long since I heard you on voice chat I barely recognized your voice - were you using your special posh broadcast voice ? ;)
I know the voices in my head aren't real..... but sometimes their ideas are just too good...

1. Thank you. I will never forget my fans <3

2. It was my real voice. I was reading what to say though - so perhaps that's why it sounds like a broadcaster voice and not my Nottingham / Norwich mixed up accent :p I also didn't swear in it I think.. so I agree.. totally doesn't sound like potty mouthed me.
