44***Fastest Speed Run Ever

Floor 10!

Second Boss Found! (2/5)

MOUNT 1 - ZELBRE!!! LVL33

"I don't care what you say," Angus started while we stared into the room we'll be fighting Zelbre in, "you're crazy if you think I'll believe for even a moment that this plan will actually work, let alone get us out of her without a scratch!" She finished, giving me a very skeptical look which insinuated the disdain in her voice.

"Relax, Angus. It will work." I reassured her. In fact, I was so sure of this myself, I could bet my mother on our chances of getting out of here with at least 80% of our hp. intact! There is just no way it will fail unless we want it to!!!

And why am I, a man who has never played this game before - disposing the fact that I've done so much research I might as well have -, so confident? Easy, because it's not my idea!

"The fastest speedrun ever..." I started to myself as I signaled for us to move out.

If you asked anyone who knows anything about BMO what did the fastest speedrun ever, you'd get at least 99% of them saying the same thing... The Mystic Jungle Guild. These guys are a guild that mostly consists rogues of all different types! They are the only guild of their kind in existence. This is because unlike other guilds with mostly one type of player, these guys don't section it off and say 'only rogues may enter'! Instead, they are an 'open to all' guild just like many others! As to why mostly rogues are there, more on that later. What is important right now, is that this guild is the second most powerful guild in the game, second only to The Church of Axis! And it is the current record holder for what is officially known as the fastest time in the games history!

They cleared the Freezing Mist Coves, a dungeon infamous for being the hardest speed run dungeon in all 5 years of its existence, both for its length (It's the 5th longest dungeon in the game) and for the terrain that makes it difficult to find anything in there! And Mystic Jungle completed it so fast, they not only broke the speed run record for this dungeon, but for at least 10 other speed run records for different dungeons in the process!!!

But I'm not talking about that one.

Very few know about this run, and even fewer acknowledge it as more than a bunch of no-bodies preparing to do a run that can only result in a disaster, but the few that do can see what that run truly was, or rather, what it could be!

There are certain communities - small in both size and number - that focus all of their time and effort into going through every single strategy for every single situation in every single game one could get their hands on, and cannibalize them with one another while slapping in a few ideas of their own, and that's where I got this crazy tactic!

It requires a three man team, one high level player of any type with at least one wide area type attack, and a defender and dp dealer combo of any level. It has to be exactly three however, as any more will run into severe complications after ten floors, and less will be straight out suicide, and this formation will only work for 3 boss floors before it starts falling apart as all the resources needed to continue will be diminished fast at that point so it is widely avoided by most people.

But for those 3 floors, you'll be able to clear the boss floors, and all the floors in between, within 5 minutes!!!

"Now!!!" I shouted out, Iron Shield out and up front as as I charged in with a Shield Bash!!!

*RIVER SMASH!!!*

Eleora opened for us as soon as we got to Zelbre, canceling the attack that was coming for us!!!

I rammed into him head on, getting all the agro on me and leaving Angus and Eleora room to breath! With his attack getting cancelled, then getting slammed in the head by a shield, Zelbre was left stunned for quite a bit! I took the chance and started raining blows on the underside of his neck, with Angus and Eleora cleaning up the little guys!!!

He prepared to swipe his claw at us, only to have Eleora intersect and cancel the attack with a turbulent round house!!!

*REVERSE WHIRLPOOL!!!*

"Ahhh!!!!" Angus was at Zelbre's legs and going crazy! Every dagger in her belt was out and in the air, too busy getting rapidly yanked out of and dropping into tender wolf underside! Angus' maneuver ended with her getting agro, and I dropped a Shield Jab into his now exposed leg, stopping whatever he was going to do!

Zelbre - who I'm now realizing amongst the craziness is a very large Beta Wolf, only purple signifying a poison essence nature instead of the trademark blue and black signifying wind and shadow essence - turned right back around, jaw open to unleash a devastating howl....

...or at least, he would have had Eleora not come in at that moment and kicked his mouth shut!

*RISING CURRENT!!!*

We proceeded like that at a good pace and within 30 seconds, the we got his hp to half!!!!

"Get down!!!" I shouted, and in near unison, we all had shields out and over us like blankets as Zelbre's fur rose and a huge cloud of gas exploded out of him!!! I peeped out from underneath the shield and observed the gas, and got it's area of effect, then a second later, the cloud dispersed and we were up and out like lightning, Eleora leading the charge with Angus right behind her and they both rained damage on him while I held agro!!!

10 seconds later, we we retreating like mad as his fur frizzed back up and the deadly gas came flying!!!

'So, ten second intervals, eh?' I thought to myself as I drank up a Strength and a Stamina Potion, then proceeded to hit him hard and fast to hold agro and down his life quicker! In and out we bobbed and weaved as we worked our way around his Berserk Mode, until finally, 1 minute and 23 seconds in, we downed him with a concerted effort of our best attacks!

*WATERFALL BARRAGE!!!*

*REVOLVER SHOT!!!*

*SHIELD THRUST!!!*

Zelbre, The First Mount Of The Goblin King, Defeated!

Tenth Floor Cleared!
