3. Ancestral Warchief - Faster Attacks - Leap Slam - Fortify ? Does AW+Fort buff the totem or yourself?

I dont think totems can be fortified, but the logic says both get the support

If I go blood magic with ngamahu life cyclone raider, what should my 4-links be? I'm thinking:

It buffs the totem since the totem is the one attacking.

I was gonna say that this seems like very little gain for who knows how much effort, but then I remembered just how many stash tabs some of you lot have

More importantly, how many the guild has. skyl3lazer has to login and manually setup all 30someodd tabs in normal and hc temp leagues.

Is trade/Guild Stash gonna be allowed or do these races also count as self-found?

You git gud. Also the 24 hour fixed seed races tend to have something abusable in them.

Yeah it's both in that case. Totem from its own attacks, you from your leapslams.

How crazy are the people who win these sorts of races?

Those modifiers make it sound impossible in general, not just for a timed event.

So no more linking NPC item for elreon 6 rota huh. Hope they add some other method of seeing what the master level of someone is so you don't end up with a level 1 guy in 6s and ending up losing half of your xp

And rip they didn't make a randomized portal effect yet

I would actually be shocked if anyone can do this. I think the current record in 5h BLAMT races was Western Forest or something hilariously low level like that.

To update my previous post, there was previously another 24h Malachai kill race

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1464003

13 people managed to do it. So, good news, if you kill him you will 100% get both microtransactions and a key!

Helmann has a video of his flame totems marauder

Apparently that time there was an Arcanist's box very early on (fixed seed) that people farmed to chaos spam gear.

Yeah, like the bird.
BLAMT races are the ultimate in face smashing, good luck reaching level 2. Seriously if you don't find a bow in the first barrel or chest on twilight strand you probably won't even kill hillock.

They try to hype up these events with these new fun sounding race types but then clog up the opening weekend with a 24 hour BLAMT race, run that poo poo later you fuckers :argh:

I hope they find a way to add asynchronous racing because I really want to try these uber beyond/breach but uhh there aren't that many of them and most of them will be when I'm at work. I kinda don't even give much of a poo poo about the racing part I just want to try some ridiculous mechanics that they'd never be able to do in a normal league.

How are awards distributed? Are they distributed instantaneously after the league is over, an hour later, a day later? Do you get a message on the forum, is there a thread with a list of who's been awarded?

20 Invaders doesn't seem like a big number until you actually run into them :derp:

Yeah the invaders thing is totally insane. I found it got a lot easier once I'd gained a few levels and got some rare gear, but by then the race was ending.

Same. I entered a bit late and got to level 8. Getting over the initial cliff face of difficulty seems to be the main issue. The race leaders likely got good drops from the first few invaders.

shadow is pretty good, traps and elemental skills combine portty well (unless you play ledge, then they fall off p fast unless you get godlike gear)
