LUUUUL so what you're saying is, if you DON'T pull an all-nighter and start a few hours late you'll never be able to complete the campaign in 7 days?

Nah man, I just wanna do it quickly in 1 session. And starting at 1 AM is just a horrible time for that, it would be exhausting.

I have other games to play and things to do, I don't care enough to play more than 1 day.

I can't believe this is getting funnier and funnier, but what's stopping you from STARTING A FEW HOURS LATE LIKE IN THE AFTERNOON if you can finish the campaign in less than a day? Getting genuinely curious :P

Nothing? I just wanna get it over and done with ASAP. I'm only playing in 1 session on the launch, its either complete campaign or quit after dying randomly in the middle. Again, I'm not interested in actually playing the event. I'm only here for the free box, and my OCD won't allow me to do it any other way.

Starts in the middle of the week at 1:00 am, April 9th 2026 GMT+03:00

Yea...who made a decision and based on what???
Why can't we all have a golden middle somewhere in-between?

It's always late or late night sad

My first Gauntlet.

Can't stand these EU crybabies anymore whew

It's HCSSF and boss-killing competition. The starting time doesn't matter at all unless you're both a no-lifer and good enough to directly compete with Ben/Jungroan and the like for at least semi-full clear (GL on that lul)

For non-racers and people with jobs, the gauntlet is about not dying and gearing up as best as you can for 4-6 days, and then attempting bosses (and most likely die in the processs). D'you seriously think a few hours of head start will change that outcome?

U r 100% right. Ppl who r crying about that event must be omega delusional to think that they would have a chance to win if only starting time would be different.

Personally, im just a noob who enjoys POE and im super happy for an extra free MTX and a Mystery Box, that in my opinion is one of the best.

Very cool initiative made by a Zizaran.

Tbf the streamers aren't going to level all classes in 7days and theres rewards for the top spots not just the first so in theory ppl have the right to be upset if the start time is bad for them just like the regular league where ppl "cry" About how a little headstart is "ruining" The economy for them.

Ain't no way it starts Thursday at 00:00 :(
Killing Hillock seems a smaller challenge than playing that event at all

Small checklist for the acts during this gauntlet:

Monsters have elemental penetration -> getting resistances capped is important early on and the only thing this really counters is max resistances so if u die a lot don't give up yet, the marauder has good resistances scaling meaning besides chaos he reaches the cap easily and can reach 80% max elental resistancesjust in his corner of the tree alone.

Monsters in act 6 onwards gain 30% extra physical as chaos damage which means after the first kitava fight u will need to get some chaos resistance either from the tree and/or ur gear. i recommend amethyst rings as a start because they have it as an implicit mod.

The rest like more projectiles and damage can be solved through gameplay but these 2 are very important to know about I feel.

it starts in the middle of the week in the middle of the night? so everyone in eu is effectively™ 1 day behind... I just wanted to watch streamers do the campaign and now there is no way to do that :(

I've died to hillock 10 times already
