Season Ten, Event 21: 90 Min Rogue Party

Some weird RNG this race. No ms until level 20. But got a 2nd qs after brutus and unique helm in southern forest. Also alched a nice two-stone ring for docks.



Also almost died to them extra proj dogs a few times :p

Started like 1min late cause potato pc takes 5min to restart.



Nice drops


Too bad templar has shit int had to grab 3 int nodes. Was constantly almost dying at docks.

My intentions for this race were:
-Get a first look and feel of turbo mod mobs
-Try out Static Strike as a main attack
-Scout Crypt 2 EXP farming to compare against the usual storymode A2 to Sarn mod.

2 misclicked talent points and 3 "oh-shit" logouts later (including a very long run for Caverns of Wrath WP back up to Merveil), I somehow still managed to survive entirely and take 4th place as duelist, all the while having only run River and Crypt 1/2 in A2. With so many mistake I'll have to shoot for the data of farming Crypt 1/2 vs A2/Sarn another time when I have a solid run up to at least Felshrine.


Findings
- Bosses are SCARY in this league. Brutal mode had rougher packs, Turbo mode has painful bosses who do not mess around instead.
- Didn't like the feel of Static Strike. It seemed more like heavy strike with a built-in, delayed Sweep.
- 2H cleave felt more streamlined than SS or leapslam/Molten striking.
- Crypt 2 still inconclusive. I didn't have a "good" run up to crypt zone so can't say for sure if it's viable to farm in a future race.
