Countdown to Start

Countdown to Finish


Subject of the contest:

Form a party of at least two members and run the selected elite maps as fast as possible. You will be awarded points for each run, documented by a screenshot in this thread.

The Maps:

• Forest Breach
• Forest of Shades
• The Wilds
• Jagged Trail
• Caves of Tarewa

Rules for points assignment:

Each map has been assigned a standard elite time for both pure and enhanced (Elixir run) categories. For each whole minute above the standard time, one point will be deducted. Currently the basis is set at 10 points, however, this may be subject to change before the contest starts.

For each warrior in the party, the party gets an extra point.

For each missing member in the party, all members get and extra point (i.e. trio => 1, duo => 2). Solo runs are not counted in.




Prize pool:

There will be categories for each class and pure or elixir run, that is, 6 categories in total.

Prizes in 1000s of gold:



I want to express our thanks to our semi-retired old member, Raymonddr, who is the sponsor of this prize pool!!!

Furthemore, runners with the highest number of completed runs (all maps must be finished in pure or enhanced mode) will be also awarded:



And last but not least a special prize, donation of Killarrow (Jay):

We add all ranks from all three categories together - Pure, Enhanced and total number of runs. And the player with the lowest result wins....

The officers may run with you (max. 1 officer in the party) but their result will be excluded from the final rankings.

Rules for posting screenshots:

• All names of participants must be visible in the screenshot.
• In the chat box you must say NO TIME (this is to eliminate possible head start shots )
• The time must be clearly visible in the screenshot.
• The screenshot must be made in the boss area. Loot and/or the boss' corpse must be visible in screenshot.
• Post ONE screenshot per post only (we use post ID as Run ID for later reference)
• Don't delete posts. If you made a mistake, post a new post and mention which post is invalid.
• As the game tends to be very laggy lately, we accept a disconnected player as long as his name is still visible.
