I don't think I've ever finished act3 in 3h. OTOH beta is supposed to be started by then; so I'll probably be ignoring most of the short races by that point.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
Great chance to check out Twitch for some tips n tricks. This race is way out of my league.
I test run this and.... i died at daresso at 2h34min, haha. Even if I could finish this, I won't be in top 30 though. Probably need to be under 2 hour to get in top 30, it's tough.

Edit: I tried again, beat malachai in 2h38m29s, kind of lucky though. Might give it a shot later just for fun.

World record is 1h30-ish, so probably somewhere in the 1:30-1:40 range should be a top 30 time

Edit: WR is 1:26:37 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTaDlm_iwf0

Top 30 will definitely be over 2 hours. There are only a few malachai speedrunners out there. Good luck @everyone.
