Intermipants

Apologies for hijacking the thread but I’d like to announce that I’ve decided to take my appetite to the Outback Steakhouse.

Thanks for the tip with the open gift! I got a 19:29 with my stalker. Used SG buffs on run speed and flight speed to move things along a bit. Also experimented with the invisibility buff on the warshade but was killed in Perez. Perez is so good though, that cluster of 6 badges - I just can't leave it alone. I also sold all my salvage for the Wentworth badges while I was flying around Cap, which saved a bit of time. Need to change my route a bit though because I'm still wasting time.

loved that run! The ski runs were inspired and when you told me you were doing it with a ws the other night I was blown away, great to see it in action. Quick question - what’s with all the Christmas packages? im still stuck at 20:25 with my stalker approach. I think I can get a minute off that but now im tempted to go warshade. also how do you get the timer on your screen? again, well done! That was brilliant.

Brutally dull conference call at work almost interrupted a blistering 22:45 run! My friend on the same call ran a 27 even.

Couldn't resist another go and I smashed it: 25:57. Sub 25 is possible.

This sounds great to me. I’d be up for it. I can definitely help with the first 100! 😉

So I gave it one last go and got it down to 28:06 thanks to Blarf and his nutrient rich goodness. 101 badges: 58 explorer, 20 AE badges, 11 achievement, 7 accolades, 1 day job, 1 ouro, 1 event, 2 gladiator. (Forgot to do the Wentworths ones which would probably have shaved off 30 seconds). That'll be my last go, I don't think I can go much faster. But where one door closes another opens - I now have a level 1 character with 101 badges which is the perfect starting point for the Snarky inspired how many badges can a lvl 1 toon get challenge. I'll be doing a few zones a day with this little fella if anyone's interested in joining. I spent a lot of time working on the build for it in mids and I'm pretty satisfied where things ended up but if anyone has any build advice or guidance it'd be much appreciated. Thanks again everyone for the great tips on blarfing, stalking etc. (it's not every day I get to say that).

Done! 28:48. Trick is to get explorations near to trains and SG bases, sell salvage, do AE badge arcs, and flip to red side as a vigilante. Echo explores are great and being a stalker is a must.

I’ve seen plenty of 50s with 30 badges. I’m laughing at the idea of seeing a level 1 join a DFB with 800 badges! Badge run?

Blimey, the lowest level for 1000 badges, and this sound so good. I’m gonna go for my sub 30min century of badges and then start thinking about the marathon challenges!

Fair point. I’ve been doing it solo. I alt invite to my SG, and then I drop an ouro, log on my level 1 and go for it. It’d be fun to get a few people trying it for a cannonball run type race - a prize to whoever makes it back first to the top of Atlas with 100 badges.

Also sewer badges are great because they’re super close to the entrance

I got it to 32 mins earlier today and was killed going for a cheeky echo rwz badge grab which cost me about a minute. I’m gonna give it a go tonight, got it planned out with consignment badges in the mix and the paragon dance party featuring. I gotta break 30 mins.

Cool idea, but unfortunately they're 100 merits each and so unattainable for a new toon.

37 mins 27 seconds. I made a mistake going to Kings Row - badges are too spread out - and didn't think to go to the Night Ward for the 3 badges you get in the Midnighter club until the very end. Sub 30 mins is possible. Love the advice about going stalker! Got it to 35:25. No multi-boxing, and I invited my cannonballer toon to the SG before beginning the run. It's tricky.
