  • Speed Run: Hellfire Ramparts
    • ]]>     Speed Run: Hellfire Ramparts #2It had been such a long time since my first Speed Run attempt through Hellfire Ramparts that I thought I’d take another crack at it today. My last run was in January and, needless to say, my gear has seen considerable improvement since then. I had high hopes that I could finish the entire Hellfire Ramparts instance in under 20 minutes but, as the image above shows, I ran just a bit too long.

    I’ve put together a short list of “rules” that I follow when I make my own Speed Runs if you’re curious. For the record, I skin everything as I go. I’m curious what my time would be if I didn’t do that. I bet it would fall in the 18-19 minute range.

    Rules and Guidelines

    • Start the timer the second you walk inside.
    • You have to kill everything inside.
    • You have to loot everything inside. Skinning is optional.
    • Stop the timer the second you walk outside.

    If you want to give it a shot on your own and post your times in the comments of this post that would be great.

About halfway through I realized it might be kind of fun to time myself and post my run here on the site.

    So this morning I woke up and ran it solo again, but this time I used the in-game /stopwatch to track my time. As you can see from the screenshot above, my time was 24 minutes and 22 seconds. I also came up with a small set of rules, or guidelines, I would follow for this and any future runs I make.

    Rules and Guidelines

    • Start the timer the second you walk inside.
    • You have to kill everything inside.
    • You have to loot everything inside. Skinning is optional.
    • Stop the timer the second you walk outside.

    If anyone who reads this blog wants to make their own run and post their time in the comments please go right ahead. We’re working on the honor system here and there’s no cash or prizes for the lowest time.
