Brutus dropped this for me. I have to thank the RNG gods, as these drops from brutus really made a difference in my racing performance.

>18'8"
>71st ladder
>10th Duelist


Had a breakthrough in this race. Hailrake dropped me a dream 2H mace but I only realised after selling my sword that cleave doesn't work with maces and I was left with just double strike. That actually made me progress faster because I only stopped for blues rather than getting distracted by white packs.

I also learnt that strongbox = wrong way go back.

Lost at least 90 seconds porting to town to buy groundslam, backtracking in upper prison etc, but now have a much better idea of how to rush more efficiently. Going 2x AEL talents also saved my ass from being oneshot. Feelsgoodman.

i hate when i get lost in upper >.< ...
