Leader-Legion of Avalon [LoA] Alliance-Recruiting PM for info!

09 Mar 2008 at 07:11 - 1

Recent conversations have lead me to believe that a more formal format is desirable to make this more into the friendly compitition that I originally wanted it to be. So here's the "official" rules:

1) Either post a screen or a link to a screen showing the time.

2) This is primarily about fun and bragging rights-I'm not in a position to offer any prizes.

3) For multipart areas, I will be segregating it into it's seperate parts. The definition of multipart is any Elite area that is not connected within a single instance. This inlcudes areas like Tomb of Primeval Kings, Sorrow's Furnace, and Slaver's Exile. Domain of Anguish will be seperated into the full area and Mallyx.

4) Have fun!

I'll be segregating this into two broad categories-Normal Mode Records and Hard Mode Records. Each one will be broken down into two seperate sub-categories-using PvE skills, and not using PvE skills. I'll try to link to the seperate post that has the screen showing the time. That way, someone can just look at this post, see the time, and then see the screen. I'll be updating the list as I get the time (seeing as this thread got bigger than I had originally thought possible :P).

In a similar vein to the fastest Urgoz time thread, I was wondering what's the fastest time other guilds have completed other Elite areas?

So if you have times, post 'em!

FoW in 55.

DoA in 2:04, non-Ursan, non-OBSFlesh warrior if that counts for anything.

Both times for FoW and Urgoz are in HM. Urgoz could be a few minutes faster if we didn't have 'an incident' at the end.

Very nice times indeed,its seems as though PVP has turned into a timed record setting state nowadays. So as a avid gamer and competitor I love to see this kind of emotion and energy put into such a over done game...lets face it GW has embraced us all,and after the economy crash,whats left but time trial.
So with that said lets make this the Thread for all time trials...
Much records are out there,we (LoD) have Urgoz at the time being.....still I doubt for long. We all need to respect sportmanship,and let the true time trials begin.....comeon GW community, lets impress each other:P
LOD record Urgoz 39 min
Lets get the Screens started..................
Screen shot removed. Please resize and then you can repost.

Screen shot removed. Please resize and then you can repost.

So a new record for us was set last night, it was 1:47 min in UW HM. If anyone else has a faster time there plz share.

Err I wasn't talking about lag. It it bigger then the screen so it makes viewing the whole picture harder. And stretches out the guru window.

Does anyone ever not use Consumables?

These times are fast n all but, but consumables kinda kill the "impressive" part.

i can beat factions, start to finish from lvl 1 in under 4 hours if that counts for anything

as for fastest elite times, i thought our 45 minute deep clear wa good, but you guys are scary. uw personal best 1h 52m, fow best 1h 54m...

i guess we need speed lessons :P

except.. idk what you guys are using.. but none of that is with consumes or ursanjunk...

FoW - 1:15

No consumable, because this was well before EoTN. Still wouldn't use them anyway.

That's a good time for all of them.

Personally, I want to see a SMS group do something with no consumables and no pve skills. I have no doubt that you'll be able to do it, but I'm interested in seeing how fast you can with normal characters.

That would be impressive. Not sure if I believe it, but impressive nevertheless.
I don't know if I like 40min runs compared to 3 hour runs I did just last year....but w/e that is the way it goes

Now if only I made it to that Urgoz run with the guild....considering the SCAR leader went as Rit....

Whats not to believe?

FoW isn't hard. You just need a decent leader, and a group who know what to target, and where to go. As long as you don't over aggro most groups can be taken down in a matter of seconds.

Too many people pile on the defense, when it's not needed. High offense and minimal defense = win

Hybrid heal/prot+bonder+motivation para = slow time
1 decent monk+decent aggro control = fast time
