Feb 15: 4h Solo HC (Calibration - no prizes)

http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/129563/page/13


Who is still doubting me? Without the rip in Lunaris level 3 it certainly would have been level 36 ledge cruel.


I still would prefer to see wipe raceformats that start in Act2 3 or another difficulty start.


Too many skills are just bad at the beginning.

I finished 103rd/23rd Marauder. First time I've been anywhere near top 300.


I need to learn what to ALCH/TRANSMUTE and at what levels certain Mauls drop.




These are the "highlights" of my gear. If anyone wants to PM me some race tips, I'd appreciate it.

gg :)
well that was fun, #29 and third templar :P
Not sure what I did but it sorta worked..

Sweet holy mother of movement speed, that's definitely the sickest gear I've ever seen on a race char. Grats for 1st place and for raising the bar.

My second race ever, the first one being the one hour calibration race. Finished #100.

I consider myself to be an average player and the result reflects this I think. Playing in a race situation is so different from building a character with all the time in the world, really gets the adrenaline pumping.

It also shows to me that opening every chest and crate is wasted time. The top players have so much more exp after just a few hours, it's not even funny.

All in all though it's great fun: so kudos to GGG for the mechanic of those races in the first place. Though four hours is probably the limit of what I'd be prepared to do in a single session playing hardcore.

Congratulations to the winners. Awesome that you managed to get to cruel in the allotted time.

Hailrake proved to required a rematch!

But in all seriousness great race alot of fun!

We deffo need prizes to be granted on progression as well, not have people doing the whole of act 3 would be a shame.

Here is my gear:

close call and more close calls at piety later, was fun to watch!

My first race, ended up at place 36.



Stuck with this mace all the way from act 2 to 3.

Congratulation to the winner and those who beat normal.

That loot is absurd.

I was #3 Templar before my ISP decided to screw me over and I got some insane lag and died in City of Sarn. Very disappointing, but I'm proud of how well I did regardless for not having done these much.

I think we should petition for progression-focused races. Not wanting to take anything from Dodeface for winning, but I feel being as manmode as ssnodgrass1283 was should deserve more recognition. Also kudos to nugiyen, and myapeli is so good it's scary, he would have progressed and probably also won levelling on top of it if it wasn't for that death.
