DXP WEEKEND

A double xp weekend surprised us all midway through the challenge window. Due to the majority of players playing on the weekend and the boost affecting all players equally I decided to allow it to be utilised for the challenge.

What kind of challenge would this be if there weren't prizes?

1st place: 64 LE

Time for gaming

 

first banger videos now banger challenges lfg

 

wtfrick recommended to me so ocol

 

I like this one. . .

 

My first attempt might do more for better spikecap rolls and try not dying in the sewers..... A lot of fun looking for good lower level heath equipment.

Had to replace some parts of the link because I can't post links. 3 = : 2 = .

This looks cool
I want to do it but idk how to get the video up and I don’t think my computer will run at more than 2 fps if I record and play :(

 

Is hunted mode allowed?

 

I can help you out if you wanna increase the prize pool :>

 

I fully understand, gotta have 10 forum posts to properly post links, so that is perfectly fine.

________________________________

Hunted mode is allowed, it's just riskier, Dr Drago told me he would do his attempt(s) in hardcore. So if you wanna challenge yourself further you are more than welcome to. :)

________________________________

If you have a really slow computer that might be possible, which is a shame. Try downloading OBS to record with and see how well your computer can handle it. The video doesn't have to be high quality and buttery smooth, it could be 480p and 15-20 fps and as long as it is clear that no cheating was done and you can still read everything I'll still count it.

________________________________

Perhaps for future challenges, I don't want to go bigger than this on the first challenge I give the community and have the ones that follow either consistently be smaller prizes or force me to find means of funding the higher prize pool. I appreciate the offer though :)

 

...with a loan >:D

 

I fully expected to be paying back the contribution, but if I took even just a 64 LE loan to boost the prize with then every challenge after this would either be smaller or would require me to get another 64 LE to match this one. Which depending on how frequently I end up doing these might require me to constantly be in debt to half the server

Got pretty lucky on the spiketop and profs are a nice boost

 

Are pets allowed to help in combat?

 

Does health from consumables count?
(nvm the other guy used it so id assume they're allowed)

 

Pets are allowed as the benefit they provide for this particular challenge is minimal.

If the challenge didn't rely on luck with chest loot as much as it does they might have had a bigger impact.

________________________________

Health from consumables does count yes.

 

this is so cool wtf

 

IGN: SynthesisCT
It's the second run I do in this VOD: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1130607755 if link doesnt work just copy last half videos/1130607755
Final HP: 699

 

I found a better run with less rng but can't do BB without wybels, even with a twice as good a weapon ;-;
gg though your run is clean

 

Link works just fine.

If you wouldn't mind it would be very helpful if you use the built in video producer on twitch and create a highlight of the run to prevent it from being deleted and to allow it to both be found more easily. You could also opt to export that highlight to youtube if you wish, without ever needing to download the file to your computer.

Edit: Also it's a damn shame you didn't take the time to level up once in the 9 minutes you had left before using your buffs.
