While i get your point, people get past level 9 in 8 minute races.

While I get your point, not all people do.

With a bit of practice, it can be done easily. :)

When played my first 12 min bursts few seasons ago, i was unable to reach level 5!

Now i can reach 7-8 levels in 12 min.

Yet some are able to get 8-10 levels in 12 min.

For bursts, a lot of it is just knowing where to spend your time to make it most efficient. 12min burst = ledge or rush prison.

I overslept and missed these awesome races. What a shame :(

Double post ftw :X

Silly time travellers.

thanks for having this conversation + i'm farely new to racing and I suck. Dead at Brutus, Dead at Merveil, i've survived enough now to win Brutus kill one time and Merveil Kill one time. Each time i had to be 2 levels over to barely avoid being one-shot killed. I've watched some twitch racers and have learned enough to run through mobs but I can't seem to survive unless i level up each zone.

Point= I have a lot of work to do to on these races and wouldn't even bother if the timer was 8 minutes.

Huh, I actually expected these to award Demis, since the Merveil race does.

Oh well, hopefully I'll win all the Cybil's Paws instead.

I wouldn't say easily done O_o
You yourself said you're not hitting 9 in 12mins, and you're in the top 50 for this race season!

Opps, I'm guessing you meant 9 in 24 mins, which yes I generally agree if the player farms a zone should not be too problematic.
But then I think it comes back to where the average player base is reaching. There are plenty of people who could well need all that time to get level 9 because they don't know the strats - then the question is really does GGG want those people to also make it to the top reward points. It seems for this race they do.

Ahh well, no need to run all of them. It does seem a little like a chore probably after the second run ;)

I think I prefer the 12-minute bursts, but a change-up is probably fine.
