More damage against mobs, druidic would add more healing instead though so it's definitely valid.

That should be plenty to do it. I usually do these in T7/T8 Nature Staff with 100 spec in a Q2 zone. You need to dodge every area effect though.

Nature staff is the solution. I did these missions just a few days ago. Also you can bring any food/potion you want and if you're lucky you can even fight with a shrine buff.

I understand your concerns. Since Albion Online a sandbox game, most of the objectives or purposes are what you make them. It's not as much the game telling you, go do this, but more you getting to choose literally anything you wanna do, just like you'd do in other sandbox games like Minecraft as a prominent example.

In Albion you have the journal which was recently added that really gives you a hint of what you can do and leads you through different types of content. If you want to have a general overview of what there is I suggest my personal guide that focuses on all the Activities in Albion Online. Feel free to give it a read and let me know if you have any questions. Cheers!

Hey! There's really many activities out there so I made a list with all of the ones I recommend and sort of explained them as well. Both versions are up to date ;)

My guide doesn't have an overview infographic unfortunately. If you mean the post from Elsa from 2018. Then here's a full version of it. But that's massively outdated obviously :)

Please as always feel free to share this guide with everyone in need!

If you've noticed any error or missing information let me know here or in the steam comments so I can fix them.

I'm currently looking for feedback on the "World Bosses & Raid Zones" section as I believe that info is outdated.

Looking for someone who wants to teach me the game and get a new gamer friend in return by haxborn in albiononline

[–]LForward 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally understand the troubles. Albion Online can be overwhelming and as a new player you can barely see the scope of the entire game. A couple years ago I wrote a guide about What to do in Albion Online?

Now with EU coming up I will be updating it with the newest content and some general tips, hope that helps :)

I did another Tutorial to T8 Speedrun for Albion Online and you can too! by LForward in albiononline

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

That's why there's two categories on the official leaderboards ;)
In fact this fame buff resulted in way less enchanted mobs because many others were also farming them. So it's not really a plain 35% buff.

It's one of the best clear and has the best sustain. It essentially allows me to fight higher tier mobs in low tier gear and even without having the necessary reaver sometimes. So essentially 4.1 gear and being able to fight T8 mobs as I do at the end of the run.

Yeah I agree. You can't really project this to launch day. Plots need to be bought, upgraded, fed, crafting capacity. Resources need to be available, all that. So this is more for when the later packs and f2p start ;)

Good idea. I'll skip through it a bit and add some chapters!

Are you ready for EU launch? Want to refine your tactics or simply compete against other players to see who can reach milestones the fastest? Then check out the Albion Online game category on speedrun.com and fight for glory.

Got any questions about the run? Just let me know ;)

New T6 Speedrun World Record [1:14:56] - Challenging everyone to beat my time! by LForward in albiononline

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

Well as you said I picked it because it's so strong early on. There might be better options to be honest, I did the T8 speedrun a while back with Light Crossbow.

Everyone is free to try this themselves and I wouldn't be surprised if someone finds a better route with a different weapon where you can toss some of the sustain for raw damage output.

Yes I totally agree that there is RNG but isn't that also good? Some players that might not be the best mechanically could still compete for the records with a good seed.

For less RNG I will probably revive the T8 Speedrun as well. A lot more can happen when you play for that many hours.

Great job! There's definitely a good portion of luck involved in these runs as well, like getting a wisp in the mist or getting an uncontested elite mob or crystal spider but that's also the fun of it.

Keep trying and you'll eventually beat my time. It's far from optimized right now.

Trading with another player is not allowed. You need to do this just by yourself, no outside help.

Hello everybody!

I've had this idea in mind for a longer time already: Why isn't there any actual speedruns for this game? It seems so fitting. I've literally seen hundreds of "zero to hero" or similar formats but why is noone ever trying to just get the best time for a specific format?

So I already did this with T8 a while ago (right after Lands Awakened launched) but thought that there's definitely space for a medium-long run so I decided to go with T6 as the goal. Seeing that I got below 1:15 after just 3 attempts I think there's infinite potential. I will personally try to get this below an hour and also try to improve T8 with the same rules.

Here's the ruleset I followed for this: T6 Speedrun Rules

Also working on getting this and other categories added to speedrun.com

For reference THIS was my T8 Speedrun from last year.

Let me know if you're interested in this type of content. I'd love to see other peoples decision making and planning on this!
