In 1.19, people stacked LNCs when there was no time-based reward at all. 1.20 brought more ARC stacking, and again no time-based reward. Am I really supposed to believe now that 1.21 class stacking and cookie cutter setups are because of the 5 chest time condition, which you've just told me most people can't accomplish anyway?
I'm telling you the speed run is built for the easiest route. Why try anything other than easiest way if it pays out the best?
I see you Raikki, do you tank AV/CC with warrior or paladin? I'd venture a guess of warrior.
You, and everyone else, should not be rewarded for doing it the easy way. It should be just the opposite, high risk high reward, NOT low risk high reward.
Not a personal attack against you or any other person, it's just speed run is done the easy way and the easy way should not be the most rewarding.
