Irritating-as-fk lower/upper prison as usual, 19minute Brutus kill when I median 16 and best is 14. Came back thanks to multiple strongboxes in ship gy area and just got 12 with firetrap 2 seconds before finish. Several transmute drops as well.
GGG fix your detection of maphacks for the races. its really lame.

Really bummed! Every darn time I'm like within 10% of the next level tier. Thanks GGG! RIP 2 points I need desperately for the 1000 point Soulthirst Belt. Ranked 45th on the race and the 12th Witch. Glad to have made top 20 in my class for 1 lotto point.



Really wish the point tiers were reworked for the 30 and 45 minute races, and not just copy and pasted from the 1 hour solo races. Only 41 people made level 12+.

I, on the other hand, think that GGG is really generous with points now. Getting top tier level threshold(10 points) in your generic race this season is quite easy if you play FotM class. Also, you don't lose points you gained at the moment of your death. If you look at the ladder and compare it to previous seasons, there was never a season with so many people getting 1k reward, and it's not even that good, so you can't really argue there is special incentive for it, it's not headhunter. Even staying in top 20 is quite hard if you don't play every race unless you can consistently rank 1-2 in your class.

But you are right that this certain race doesn't have 10 points threshold in line with other races, I think lv 13 would be more appropriate than 15 (considering 1st ranger got lv 13).

My statement is being taken a little out of context. As you later agree, the point structure is a little harsh for this 30 minute race as same level requirements as the 1 hour race. Just reworking the point tiers for the 30 and 45 minute races. That was all.

If you look earlier in the season races I praised GGG for giving us the opportunity to achieve 1000 points with the improvements such as: additional races (155 instead of 120 to be like the first race seasons), keeping points for deaths, reworking endless ledge to not have harder mobs (such as from act 4) until later maps, etc. Like you mentioned these are great improvements! Just small things here and there, but I think more attention is being payed to racing than in the past few seasons. Overall I'm very happy with all the updates, and I of course upgraded to Vaal supporter to help support the game. :)

Good Luck to all those that have raced, and will in the future!
