I’ve just completed my first speedrun of the story with a solo character as a total speedrunning novice and I’ve realised I have absolutely no frame of reference to tell me if my time is good or bad! Does anyone else speedrun the story and if so could you let me know what sort of times you’re getting? I did it in 3:03:53 from hitting ‘create character’ to killing Lagon. I made a load of mistakes and easily cost myself 10-15 minutes just from being dumb, with scope to improve the time further with more practice, better routing and good luck so I would like to get a feel for whether it’s worth working on or whether there are people breezing through in like an hour or so that will just laugh at my time…
I used one of Boardman21’s Acolyte builds (I love your builds!) and my completely arbitrary rules allowed me to use a pre-created loot filter to make things a bit easier while I’m practicing. Obviously for a serious run there would need to be rules agreed but I’ve never been involved in that process so don’t really know how they’re decided ¯_(ツ)_/¯
There is a speedrun.com page with a couple of runs from a few years ago that are completely out of date and the rest of the page is a total ghost town so it would be cool to try and get a bit of activity going on there again. I also don’t really know how to go about getting things updated over there so any help or guidance would be appreciated!
