run just got approved. WR. I hope someone breaks it soon and introduces a new strat. EDIT: record was beaten by curly780: www.speedrun.com/V_Rising/runs/y8w7ejdy nice!
This is very cool, I hope in the future if you do full playthroughs or future act 1 speedruns you do go to brutal though. I think it would be a more fun category to run and watch.
Hello Nova, you know that many people we started on the server at the same time are making rapid progress. To give an example, I am aware that they do this by doing the important and necessary bosses first, and not by killing all the bosses in order, like a new player like me. If you can prepare a content like this, it would be great. Please show us how we, as gear, can progress faster and get ahead of other players and gain an advantage when we start a newly wiped server.
hmmm there's gonna be a lot of variables for that. Is it duo/squads, whats the loot rate, normal/brutal, etc. In most servers I join, I just focus on getting my gear score high and keep knocking out primary bosses. Once I get to 74, that's time for styx, winged, solarus. If ping is good, we can go for adam or just farm schems to upgrade gear again. My clan helps me farm, they do the base, they do the secondary bosses, they make gear for me while I'm out, they swap when I'm low at bosses. etc. I can probably make a video but it's in no way optimized.
How much time would you save doing Unstuck in some spots to skip travel time? E.g. Clive > Polora could save maybe 1-2mins or whatever. Great video though keep it up Nova
idk. havent tried it but probably minimal gain. horse is fast and unstucking has a lot of timers and animations then you also have to wolf to run to polora.
@@nova_nova_nova problem is that u wont have that waypoint explored so by the time you do that & other things mentioned it might not be a time save. Could be worth testing tho
quite the impresive run, im going to talk without really knowing, but maybe trying to get nicholaus sooner could be a good strat? you dont get an ultimate until quincy at 40, but nicholaus is available sooner, sure, the ultimate is not as good, but lets say you are to get it after kelly or so at around 30. that is 10 minutes of ultimate, or 5 ultimates you can use in bosses, it could be 10-15% of the hp of 3 bosses or so
ye this is a good idea. the order would be: keely -> rat -> nicholaus -> waygate -> bear -> finn -> quincey -> errol -> lidia -> grayson -> clive -> polora I can fight bear, finn, and quincey with spider ult. I havent figured out which set of skills are the best but condemn spells feels good to use. Also if I get unlucky with grave dusts, I can kill nicholaus then farm grave dust then rat -> bear -> ...
Unstuck, you can use it either by going into the menu and pressing the button or binding it to a hotkey in the console. he has another video explaining tips like that in further detail
