Standard rules for league events apply. Please click this link if this is your first race event.
A guide has been posted here which covers general aspects and strategies of racing.

Dead characters will still receive reward points.

A summary of Alternate Start events:

Unlike regular races, Alternate Start events do not begin in Act 1, Normal. They can begin in any act or difficulty after that. These areas are the same level as they appear in the regular game, and are not scaled down for these events.

To compensate, Alternate Start Events provide pre-levelled characters with unallocated skill trees, who start with basic gear and skill gems appropriate to their level. These race types are also voided.

This event begins in Act 2, Normal, in The Forest Encampment.

Characters start at Level 12, with 13 unallocated passives

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: Dominus, located in The Upper Sceptre of God.

  • 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.

Boss Kill Prizes:
The following are awarded to all players to complete them, not just the first.
  • Kill The Vaal Oversoul in Normal difficulty: 1 Reward Points.
  • Kill Piety in Normal difficulty: 1 Reward Points.
  • Kill Dominus in Normal difficulty: 4 Reward Points.

Top Prizes:

The overall top player by time will receive 3 Reward Points.

The top 20 players of each class by time will receive:
  • #1 player of each class: Demigod's Dominance (Unique Golden Mantle) and 10 Reward Points.
  • #2 player of each class: 6 Reward Points.
  • #3 player of each class: 5 Reward Points.

  • Level 26-29: 4 Reward Points.
  • Level 22-25: 2 Reward Points.

Lost 3 minutes when i was 30s ahead of deadanddoom because i lost my battlefront tp, managed to win because of 2qs + tp scrolls
100 #1 - PA Rank 1 Flashback | 100 #2 - Cyclone Standard | 100 #3 - Support top 50 Talisman | 100 #4 - Support Rank 5 PHC | 100 #5 - Earthquake Rank 51 PHC | 100 #6 - Vaal Spark Rank 5 PHFB2W
Majorly lost my way in some zones, but I didnt see any kills even entering the tower. I was like did everyone die? /ladder showed nothing too.

Then /ladder a minute later all the names pop up. Had a few failed to enter zone message along the way too. I guess the servers are a little fucky?
So what was this seed? Corrupted area in every zone really messed me up.
10 tileset errors and poe crash when portaling during dom fight, going back in now with a 5+ min startup time, fun times
Died at like 15th minute to explosive arrows on Kraityn, went from 60% to 0 in 0.01sec with vigilant strike buff on.

Remade and done it with 57min /played while over-farming end zones because I wasn't going to get 1st anyway.

Still got 2nd marauder. Kek


Spoiler
Playing with 70-80ms ping, which is causing long loading between zones,
resulting in 2-4 minutes disadvantage in 1 hour races.
(I was wrong, it wasn't a ping issue but something else on GGG side)
