A summary of Time based events:

The boss required to be defeated for this race is: Merveil, located in The Cavern of Anger.

  • The time recorded is based from the beginning of the race, not when your character is created.

HOW
Damn leap slam hacks, thought I had chance for 1st overall. :x
Straight from the first visit to Tarkhleigh:
Spoiler
ProjectPT was right.
what a load of bullcrap... my caverns of anger was the size of 3 prisoners gate... and maze mode
After having no shortbow til 8 and no ms race-wide, I finally stumbled into merveil's lair and promptly got crit ice spear'd to death. A shit end to a shit season, didn't even bother getting the 40 points for the belt.

*shrug*

Had all the necessary basics drop and hit 10 on Brutus due to a humongous upper prison.
Last race for the season for me and did OK by my standards. Multiple QS flasks but do you think I could find an Aug orb... of course not. Not until I reached the Southern Forest and finally crafted my 10% MS boots. No vendor sales again as usual.

Then RNG trolls my fire trapper by giving me a nice bronze sceptre with +1 fire gems... and all blue sockets. Thanks again you fickle minx! :) Only managed to Chrome this after I hit my max level.

Still, that Quartz Sceptre was a nice find and almost made up for it. Certainly made it easier to get those last few levels for max points.

Won't even get my 100 points this season due to real life and an awful schedule for Aussies. Fingers crossed for a bonus prize in the raffle :) Edit: alas, no last minute RNG bounty but I'm sure others will be delighted instead.

See you all in 1.4

Brutus dropped a nice sword, which I forgot about while fighting Merviel. Merviel dropped RRG gauntlets, and I was able to kill vaal with about a minute left. Took a couple vaal smashes to the face, and wished I had brought 3 mana flasks ( one tp found in all act2 and I had used it to speed up the act a little ). Had Vaal's minions not recharged my flasks, I don't know if I would have made it in the time.
