A summary of Time based events:

Time based events are designed to create a competitive environment where players compete not by character experience, but by their ability to progress through the game and complete specific objectives, such as killing bosses.

The boss required to be defeated for this race is: Merveil, located in The Cavern of Anger.

  • The time recorded is based from the beginning of the race, not when your character is created.
  • Characters will not appear on the ladder until they have completed the objective.
  • Characters are not required to have completed the time based objective in order to receive points for the other objectives, such as points awarded for reaching certain levels.
  • Characters who die after completing the objective will still be counted for receiving reward points.
  • Points are awarded at the end of the race, do not delete your characters until they have been moved to the permanent leagues.

>28mins 29sec
>43rd ladder
>6th Duelist


Best gear/path/vendor RNG I've had in a while. Lost about 2mins total in running around but that wouldn't have made a difference to my position by class. Got to Merv bang on Lv11 with a cold ring ready, it blows my mind that melee classes can face her without one and underlevelled to boot. It just makes such a huge difference, hats off to you hardcore mufuggaz


dat sword

Spoiler
i thought it would be fun to do a race for the first time in what feels like a year
im so lost on layouts but still ended with a pretty good time, 23minutes and second duelist

looking at the other duelist it looks as if people are now doing merveil with two one-handed swords so i guess im gonna have to adapt to that, im used to the sweet jade chopper + double strike
