Our First Two Week Charity Race Event

Excellent! I will have to make room in the budget for the $5 mask.

Sounds like fun! Especially like the part where you keep your rank even if you die. :)


Also i predict that more people will die from strongboxes than be killed by invaders. Looking forward to seeing if i'm right. ;)

This is pretty cool, and I'll make sure to participate.

How considerate of GGG!

I thought I was done with Invasion, but I'll gladly help out a good cause. Plus I want to how they rebalanced Invasion.

Any word on what graphics cards are being given away? I play PoE on a 4-year old laptop with mostly low settings. I'm hoping to build my first PC this fall, mostly for PoE matters :D

Good stuff, guys. I'm looking forward to next HC season as well.

Awesome event, you can count on my contribution :).

Very Nice.

I love the Charity race idea. Hopefully, we will see more of these in the future.

The hardware prizes being available at lower levels is great. Good, devoted, and sincere fans are often passed up for stuff like this simply due to time constraints. I hope everyone enjoys that they can win something, even with just a little time and effort.

Sadly, the timing for myself could not be worse. I have my birthday, my anniversary, Mother's Day (fuck you, Hallmark), and out of town family coming for a stay. But I will partake here and there, regardless. As well as purchase the helmet for all my wife, my son, and myself.

I am curious as to the specific hardware being given away. I hope we can get more details as they are available.

Lastly, I can see this also serving a dual purpose of testing the Invasion and Ambush mechanics paired together for when the Challenge leagues end. Nice touch.

I am curious, however, as to how this will work with dead chars. Say I have three chars die at level 35. Will all three count towards a chance to win the same prize?

Other Rules:

The single highest level character in this league on your account will be considered.

Lastly, since this is a direct purchase for the helmet, if we wish to contribute more --- can we buy multiple helmets on the same account?

Only the character with the most exp counts.

This event looks awesome (and I'm pumped that it's coupled with a great cause). I'm pretty excited for this.

Note to Self: Don't forget to call mother on Sunday for Mother's Day...

Really cool!

I like how the majority of the prizes are at such low levels.
I play invasion by full clearing all areas including corruptions, my characters hit 35 in the middle of act 3 normal.
I hope all players will give it a try.
