They removed a lot of the longer races. There is an absurd amount of 1 hour races this season. Competetive races got up as well but only because Descent:Champions is now a competetive race.

My favorite races are probably 1h solo, 1-3h party, 12 min burst, BLAMT, and D:Champs. There's a lot of 12 min burst this season.

Least favorite race is probably EL and then anything Turbo asides from BLAMT.

Good riddance. Worst idea ever ^_^

Now if fractured mobs gave exp then I might enjoy it a little more.

FBLAMT was hilarious. Wouldn't want to do it often but it was an absolute gas when it happened.

I'd log in just to watch the death messages.

Well, isn't that a good variation from the main game to have a small mode here and there that takes a lot of patience? And it isn't mandatory to participate in any way, so what's the problem?

BLAMT is actually the only time I play races. Adding a mod that makes a bunch of enemies that give you no experience does not actually add anything to the experience at all.

Well, I agree that the fractured mobs should give XP. Not as much but maybe 10% of the original mob would be fine.

Evo, Lag; I found a Maelstrom of Chaos map if you guys want in on it since you let me join yours.

Also Evo, did you stop playing completely? because I want that exalted you borrowed back at some point

I love BLAMT because one reason: It completely changes the way that you have to play the game.

Anyone in invasion got like 1-2 ex or a Rearguard quiver?

Wisdom teeth and Dark Souls 2 too strong compared to PoE. :3

Just shoot me a PM when you need it like naow, I could only throw equivalent small shit at you without selling something and I know you hate that. <3

If I could get another season of signature turbo, even if it has to be fixed seed turbo, I'd be a happy camper. I miss people actually dying.

I hate turbo a lot. The actual mod doesnt bother me, but personally it shoots my desync through the roof. Im constantly waiting for the 10 second oos cooldown

People complain about desync way to much, I map with a guy who spams oos every 30 seconds and it drives me insane.

I use /oos maybe once or twice a day, don't do stupid things and you wont get stuck out of sync all the time.

I rarely use oos outside of races, skipping mobs is what procs it most of the time.

Sure, I'll let you know when I need it.

Agreed, but Turbo is different for me too, it just happens all the time.

I probably use /oos more than I need to, but some days 10 seconds isn't enough because the desync is pretty bad. Though I don't avoid things that cause desync because I can just /oos and I'm a softcore guy anyway.

9 points for my first race this season, not bad given I did not play last season. I was pretty lazy though. Just leveled in Sins 1, so I only reached lvl 24 but I think it was the right choice. I cought up there quite a bit, I was just too slow before. My Merveil was horribly slow, like 38 min or so. ^^

Rank was #34 and #5 Mara.

But I think I liked it like this. I can't win like that, but it was safe and without all the hassle to rush to Act 3. :D Plus... I think my best was reaching act 3 in like 1h 15 min, so I would need to improve.

I had 2nd Shadow locked in, but punted really hard (deequipped item giving me Int, broke build, spent 15 minutes to get Int to reequip, wasting 15 minutes.) and finished 4th shadow 47th overall. Still got 10 points thought, so I guess thats decent for my first race as Shadow.

Lol, I was wasting so much time searching vendor for a Dex amu. After two tries I found one and it was blue (so I would've needed a chance orb). The fourth time, when I was in act 2 already, was the charm. It sucked, because I had 3 amazing dex requiring items. One was boots with 15% ms and double res. Others were also rare, not that good but still. I was using basically only grey equip until Act 2 haha (except for weapons!).
