Getting 17,777 cR in Style
Nak3d Eli is back with another run to help you through the Weekly Challenge - an 18-minute dash through Pillar of Autumn on LASO (minus Blind). Some of his tricks might be tough to pull off - if you find yourself having trouble, swing by High Speed Halo, where a number of runs at different difficulties (including a 28 minute LASO run from RC Master) can show you alternatives. (And don't forget Tyrant's Mythic Guide - still MORE choices!) (Louis Wu 21:16:07 UTC) (permalink)
