RE: Congratulations to our 4 winners; you ran a fantastic race.
Thanks a lot for hosting these @mattclarke, really enjoyed it again. Also, special thanks to @linnyplant for adding that 20 Steem for the Witch! :)
First time I chose to go for a duelist, but sadly I had my first death in the history of poecomps. I was using the legion mechanic (it was crazy rewarding, lots of uniques and currencies), when suddenly i met a rare with Extra Projectiles, which proceeded to kill me from full health in less then a millisecond. I was really surprised because bladestorm was ripping through everything without anything special on the gear, and I had like 1,200 hp with capped resistances at LvL 36. :/
After I basically played ED Witch and Perforate on other chars, its really strong for leveling if you have some gear, I would definitely recommend checking it out. In the end I was a bit worried about @enjar catching up in levels, luckily I was in Act 6 already, so I could level up at a faster pace.
Congrats to all the contenders, and thanks again for hosting these, it's always a pleasure to compete! :)
Always a pleasure to have you involved. Ratticus mentioned he's befriended many of the other players in-game, making it easier for you all to watch each other. I'm contemplating making it an entry requirement in future leagues.
Did you have any preferences on that, or can you envisage any drawbacks?
I think it would make everyone's job easier and I think it would be nice to build the community by having each other on the friendlists anyways so I think it'd be a great idea. I don't really see any downsides to it in terms of the race, so I'll probably add everyone at the start next time! :)
