Dead characters will still receive reward points.

A summary of Alternate Start events:

Unlike regular races, Alternate Start events do not begin in Act 1, Normal. They can begin in any act or difficulty after that. These areas are the same level as they appear in the regular game, and are not scaled down for these events.

To compensate, Alternate Start Events provide pre-levelled characters with unallocated skill trees, who start with basic gear and skill gems appropriate to their level. These race types are also voided.

This event begins in Act 3, Normal, in The Sarn Encampment.

Characters start at Level 22, with 25 unallocated passives. They have allied with Eramir when dealing with the bandits.

A summary of Time based events:

Time based events are designed to create a competitive environment where players compete not by character experience, but by their ability to progress through the game and complete specific objectives, such as killing bosses.

The boss required to be defeated for this race is: Malachai, The Nightmare, located in The Harvest.

• The time recorded is based from the beginning of the race, not when your character is created.
• Characters will not appear on the ladder until they have completed the objective.
• Characters are not required to have completed the time based objective in order to receive points for the other objectives, such as points awarded for reaching certain levels.
• Characters who die after completing the objective will still be counted for receiving reward points.
• Points are awarded at the end of the race, do not delete your characters until they have been moved to the permanent leagues.
