To see your points in the current season (and its prizes), go to this page.

You are also able to view your season and events history on your profile page, under the Seasons & Events section.

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.

Implicit "Every Area contains a Vaal Side Area"?
Was lvl 26 at piety, lol super overleveled. Dont know why I did that.
Got twice "Lost contact with the server" (had to go Piety twice from begin to end)
so much lag, never had this before....
what up cuzz
got disconnected while going to lunaris temple. had to rerun from warehouse
I'm trying hard not to be overleveled but lack of portals and there I'm 2 levels above planned :/

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)
I found so many vaal areas, was getting frustrated how many times they mislead me :P

Died in the first 20minutes because I'm a bit of a shitnoob with these pre-geared races. Funnily enough it wouldn't have made a difference for points because I would have been 6th at best, which is the same bracket for bonus points. NEVAR GIVE UP ^_^

MVP Gilded Axe drop made piety and dom faceroll as fuark.

Dominus kill gear Lv29
Now that was really unlucky encounter in docks, double ghost at pier with blue pack and rare that got possessed, didnt react in time, one of them was Alchemist and they do those chaos spikes or w/e they are on possessing, it did INSANE damage, I was bursted down instantly.
ProjectPT was right.
