In Between Season Event 9: 24 Hour Open Descent
I full cleared every zone & killed the last boss.
I ended up level 30 at the end, I didnt reset any maps yet. I think I may have been 1 level under 100% experience one or 2 times during the final levels, but for the majority I was in 100% experience range. If I level past 30 it will be because I ran the last zone again.. @Kotao, the events are shorter duration for a reason, which is why this is not really an issue yet. The only issue with this is that you dont know initially if the reset timer is set @ 8 mins or 15 mins because you cant see it. (or is there a quick way to reset zones that I am unaware of?) I think the event would have to be at least 2 hours before resetting could be used as a strategy (so at this length I think there should be some kind of fundamental change to descent so that it isnt such an issue, which is probably why the events only lasted an hour in the first place) |

" As soon as people start clearing descent in 60/90 minutes, with more than 15 minutes to spare for the reset, and enough time to do more mobs after that, then it's an issue. But the best players to date make it to the last zone with only a few minutes left in 60 minute runs, so at best if they cleared the entire last zone in 10 minutes on a 90 minute race, they would gain an extra 5 minutes of farming. Besides that, who the hell would have thought to test this? It wont be an issue unless they did descents with no mods that were more than 90 minute, which was never the plan. If they do extend it, it's because other mods slow you down. IGN = Dellusions_Duelist

Is it 15 mins for a descent reset? Zones with fewer than 3 exits usually reset in 8 mins.
And ya, no one would have thought to do it during the main season (though it likely happened by accident a few times due to crashes), considering no one even managed to finish descent in the first place. IGN: KoTao

I hope next week will see a repetition of this. Unfortunately due to computer problems I didn't bother, and spent my limited time relevelling in ONS, hopefully will be able to try again in the future.
