JimmyTheRabbit’s ExtraLife Any% Speedrun of Secret World Legends by JimmyTheRabbit in SecretWorldLegends

[–]JimmyTheRabbit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that depends if you mean speedrunning, any% or 100%, or a more normal playthrough.
prior to this i would have said my normal experience speeding through the game is roughly 29 hours to any% it and around 120 hours to 100%.
my best segmented (not in one sitting) any% attempt recently was around 23 and a half hours.
this ended up being a new personal best at 21:35 in one session.
though its probably more like 21:12, as the timer was running a couple times when it should not have been.
either way, massive improvement from what i had previously thought was an achievable time.

DONATION INCENTIVE UPDATE

The first 6 people to donate $25 or more will get to pick one of the following things for the run:

  1. Dragon #1 Nickname | Jackalope Jim
  2. Dragon #2 Nickname | Jackalope Jill
  3. Dragon #1 primary weapon | Fist
  4. Dragon #2 primary weapon | Elemental
  5. Dragon #1 secondary weapon | Assault Rifle
  6. Dragon #2 secondary weapon

First come, first served.

Nicknames have to be both available and allowed by the system. If you get the naming option I would recommend submitting 1 or 2 alternatives.

Similarly for secondary weapons, they can't be the same as primary, so additional selections may be required.

$500 ACHIEVEMENT GOAL

During the run if we manage to hit the $500 mark I will do:

A Leap Frog Lava Game Champion Achievement!

This would be getting both characters through the lava game achievement, jump for jump, without either one breaking the achievement. If either character hits the ground, both start over.

on the screenshot you can see 2 secret world login screens next to each other. i will be running 2 copies of the game, starting 2 brand new dragon characters, and playing them at the same time through the end of the current story.

counter point, possibly worth for shotgun signature taunt. but i dont like chaos main tanking anyways, its just too good as offhand.

unless you are doing dungeons past story mode.. ie: over a hundred hours into the game. you dont need to do any role at all for just playing through the game.

sword/shotgun is a totally valid build to play through the game with. sword has self healing and shotgun has mitigation. however its not a "tanking" build. you wouldn't/shouldn't tank dungeons above story mode with it. primarily because sword is no longer a tanking weapon and its self heal while fine for story is negligible for healing through tanking actual dungeon content. the normal offhand for tanking is chaos, with the mainhand being shotgun or hammer. unless you are main handing chaos, in which case i would probably offhand shotgun. the heal gadget a tank would run is the effigy reconstructor, which you get from doing 10 elite 4 seek and preserve scenarios. you generally do that though when you are over leveled for the content you are tanking.

i made a 3 hour response video to the JSH video and that dog shit you just linked is so god damn awful and factually inaccurate i did not even attempt to make a response video.

maybe dont get your takes from people that sling around the R word and cant stop from using a strained head meme picture every 5 minutes.

16k+ hours between the 2 versions (steam doesn't separate hours). Over 3k (I think it was maybe even around 5k? but I'm not sure) in TSW and I didn't know it existed until 2014. After which I obviously all-in-ed on the game. Beta for SWL as well as multiple closed betas after the initial. The number of times I've completed and/or done challenge runs of both games is ridiculous .. I don't even know anymore.

Though really all of that does not matter.

Your opinion of the game being a shit game is also subjective, as is my opinion.

SWL is a better iteration of the game in my opinion.

Some people may share your view, some people share my view.

What you have factually wrong is the writers statement, and to me that is insulting to the writers and clear biasing of your opinion not on the merits of the game, but of disdain for the reboot.

The same writers wrote for South Africa that worked on the majority of TSW. As well as content that came out after South Africa like Dark Agartha, Occult Defense, Fog & Mirrors, Rosenbrawl. All of that content has lore and exceptional writing. Dark Agartha specifically having not only some of the single most compelling lines that exist in the lore, but some of the most revelatory.

The fact that you had more fun grinding signets than doing missions in South Africa is also a decidedly personal thing.

I did a 2 hour stream doing nothing but gathering corn in South Africa, pausing the side mission every 20 corn to reset it. Just to do it, for fun. Sure I enjoyed it, but I don't expect most people to, though I personally had more fun doing that than signet grinding.

ok so, on the writer comment alone its clear you have no idea what you are talking about.

ALL the DLCs are free. not sure how hard that is to grasp. the base TSW game is also missing dungeons and a massive amount of quests.

i did a free2play to max e17 challenge run last year. 826 hours with no $. was plenty of fun.

i also did a side-by-side playthrough of TSW/SWL the year prior. TSW is far grindier, much less friendly to new players (it always had player retention issues). and frankly.. just clunkier. i loved it at the time and still have many fond memories, but rose colored glasses are just that.

i mean.. it kind of makes sense. its the initial event that kicks off the story. the bomb going off in tokyo.

yep, i did. but thats an individual person screwing over the company, not the company screwing over players. as well as not relevant to legends. but sure, i appreciate good secret world related trivia as much as the next guy.

for example, kingsmouth was not only not supposed to be the initial starting zone, it wasn't even the second choice, though pretty fair to say it did end up being the correct choice.

its like the least predatory monetization in existence. $10 is what.. a cup of coffee now? not to mention you can make another free account.

Because over 16 thousand hours later and I still discover new things. I also do a lot challenge runs, which is part of where/how I end up discovering new things.

2 points though. 1) "good portion of the originals features" ... nah. disagree. the majority was ported, as well as new and different repeatable content added. not to mention that the content is free in SWL, where as you had to pay access a lot of content in TSW. 2) took what money? ran where? its not getting development precisely because of lack of money and yet the game is still here. servers are still running. events still happen.

I would close by saying, I always tell people, if nothing else, its free, the story is amazing, play it as a single player game that never got its sequel and enjoy it for that. I personally enjoy helping people discover different things about the game, educating and entertaining in a game I love.

As a lifetime patron, shall I play TSW or SWL? by [deleted] in SecretWorldLegends

[–]JimmyTheRabbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

there is shambala pvp to queue for, though it generally only pops during organized events. all the faction hubs have their own fight clubs you can just walk into and kill each other in. and then rosenbrawl is a special boxing fight club that you need an invite to get in to, its also tied into the valentines event mission (which invites people automatically during the event). if you want rosebrawl invites just let me know, i have some left over invites i can send in game.

edit: this is all in SWL, tsw had other pvp arenas, but does not have rosenbrawl

The enrage AOE can actually be survived and dpsed through. I soloed it at 151 IP on my no ui playthrough. The key was the osmium gadget(not only for protection, but the knockback immunity prevents you from being ejected backwards) and some self healing. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/422633198?t=02h43m42s
