With this logic we should allow these to make game EZ MODEEEE!!!

- Plugy
- Drop mod
- Hero editor
- Other stupid mods

/p8 all the way or you are just lazy/bad player who can't handle some extra seconds to farm X monster.

P8 walk is not a p8 walk if you change player settings. For example you play lk on /p5 and take hits from monsters it can totally save your life because you take less damage (there is no reason to run lk on any other than p7-8 anyway)

Only except to change p1 is tower cellar level 5 for the rune drops chance. But previous levels should always be played on p8 (you can change from p8 to p1 with 2buttons so you don't need write command anyway)



Why make the exception for Countess, then? If you’re so bent on being an elitist P8er then why make the exception for arguably the toughest part of the walk (early Hell)? This is something that always bothered me. “But Countess is more efficient to run on P1!”...and so are a multitude of other MF targets...

Pindle, Pits, AT are all more efficient to run at P1 if you want set/uniques, and almost every rune target is more efficient at P7 than P8. Multiple bosses are more efficient to farm for set/uniques at a player setting other than P8 and multiple bosses have hard XP caps essentially making P8 stupid as hell if you want XP.
It all differes based on your goal, but for the most part P8 is just a novelty lmao.

Countess P1 is solely about maximizing her special drop’s potential.

Yes, lots of farming areas is, ofc, more inefficient on p8. But if you don't care about time spent, p1 countess is still more efficient than p1>. That's why people do it on p1.

I agree countess should be run on p8 though, but I can understand why almost everyone goes scrub mode when rerunning countess

Thankfully, this doesn't have to be an issue because the rule is p8 at all times. even countess runs.

Prize pool went up 300.00 fg!

This should be a lot of fun. I'm sure I won't get very high on the leader boards, but can't wait to enjoy regardless.

So the one who gets to a1 nightmare due to lack of playing can win? I think it should be top 3 levels. Or first 3 to 95? Last time if you died you could remake your character you’re just that much time behind.
