Prizes have been awarded! 560 of them :P

So this "Level 14-15: 5 random currency items", A friend of mine did successfully stay alive at the end of the event, did not receive any items what so ever.

Any idea what to do? He have tried to relog and such, but nothing appeared. D:

They appear on a new character in the account with the nearly the same name.

Thanks!

Now that was fun !!

I joined a group and managed to stay alive until the end ! We all helped eachother and it felt really nice :D
I feared Merveil as I only had +28% cold resist but thanks to some kewl teamwork, we got her surpinsingly easily !

We had a little less under one hour left before the end of the race when we reached "Felshire Ruins". We grinded there with QRFT "Unknown-Ranger", Hellskin "Raging" and Misza2909 "MocarnyKomandos".

Anyways, a big thank you to all of those who played with me yesterday. I forgot some names unfortunatly. Some cool guy just logged back near the end of the race to wish us good luck (Xishem I think) !

Also, congratz Notniat "RoughOldMan" ! That is an impressive 1st place :D

This is what I got :

First time seeing a blessed orb !

I'll be back for the next event without a doubt :D

It was quite fun! :) Teamplay made it a lot easier. We managed to get past merveil pretty easily. Last weekend I died at lvl 9 in the prison, so it was definitely an improvement (got 3rd Ranger and 11th overall ;) ).

I got 2 Fusings, Chromatics, GPC, Chance and Regret each and 1 Blessed, Divine and Glassblower. I'm pretty happy with it. Maybe next time I'll even make it past lvl 20, looking forward to it.

Teamed with dyslexic for this one, me on ranger + him on witch. We were leading until early act 2 when an archer pack 1-shot him. Had to slow down from there but held #1 ranger np (that or someone temporarily passed me then died), then spent the last 3-4 mins in town as i couldnt level from 23-24 in that time and didnt want to risk a pointless death. In hindsight i might have had time to clear thicket, but id seen someone enter as i was halfway through vaal and just moved on. No one did get that thicket clear in the end.

Drops were generally bad again; 3 useable rares total, the best of which was a boots early a2 whos only mod of worth was 15% run. Couldnt even use the chaos orb i found.

Most exciting moment was taking ghost damage in weaver, wondering wtf was going on then suddenly getting teleported into a room id never entered, surrounded by 15 or so flicker spiders. Saved out with less than 20% life; only the fact that there was no room for the outer 10 or so spiders to flicker or move in allowed me to save out at all.

The new loot mechanics were/are annoying in a party that actually plays as a team; distracting and time wasting. If this mechanic or something similar is here to stay (and i strongly hope that its not), a toggle for whoever creates the party is essential.

Good fun as always. Looking forward to the increased event frequency in the near future!

I agree - it was great! Thank you guys, you were awesome. You had really good idea with creating a public party. In a team we were able to stay alive and reach so good levels.

Thanks again, I can't wait for the next party with you :)

And here's what I got (2 GCPs, 3 Chaos... far over my expectations!):

Alrighty, stats are up, I wanted to get them up sooner but I had some UI tweaks to do, I hope it'll make things easier.

I've put a table of the final scores in and you can click the names to add them to the form. It's a bit lazy but I'll make it better soon, including class filtering.

Top 10

Edit:

20798 entries for this race - compared with:

11468 for the June 10th race last week and

21295 for the June 3rd race.


Sorry I hadn't accounted for the last 3 minutes of stats on that table but the results are accurate now.

20k entries means 20k characters ?
It would be quite a lot.

Had a nice safe race, however RIP to my 3 teammates.

Here is my marauder gear, nothing special, a lot of life regen.

Should have explained that better sorry, they are database entries (one for each player for each minute they were in the race). I'm going to get some stats up around the player numbers soon.
