WoW WotLK Classic: Speedrun/Progress Rules for Ulduar from Warcraftlogs
If you want your guild to compete with the rest of the World of Warcraft: Classic speedrun/progress community, you’ve always had to follow the rules of Warcraftlogs. Now the makers of the website have released a first rules update for Ulduar based on the PTR experiences.
Just recently we had about the youngest Speed run record of none of the above in Naxxramas reported by WoW: Wrath of the Lich King Classic. It didn’t take 42 minutes until Kel’Thuzad was defeated on the ground. And as soon as the upcoming raid instance Ulduar opens with phase 2, the popular titan fortress in the Storm Peaks will also be on the to-do list of the professional guilds in order to set the fastest time at the end. But how do you actually qualify with your speed run/progress time? After all, there are umpteen optional bosses and hardmodes in Ulduar.
Warcraft logs with rules update for Ulduar
As in previous Classic phases, the Warcraftlogs website will set the rules for progress/speedrun guilds in phase 2 of WotLK Classic – with those rules being determined in cooperation with the community. There Ulduar on the Public Test Server this week landed was now from Warcraftlogs a first rules update for Ulduar . Note that some of the rules are still up for discussion and may change accordingly.
Here is a summary of the rules so far:
- The optional bosses Ignis, Razorscale, and Auriaya do not need to be defeated for valid World First attempts.
- The World First race will have three categories: Yogg-0 Firstkill, Algalon Firstkill, and Yogg-0 plus Algalon
- For speedrun attempts to be valid, certain trash groups must be defeated.
- Open: Previously, optional bosses were not required for speedruns. So it may not be necessary to place Ignis, Razorscale and Auriaya for speedruns either.
- Anyone who successfully masters the various hard modes in their speed runs should be rewarded. Time penalties of five minutes are currently being considered if guilds defeat bosses without hardmode.
- The speed run starts when the Flame Leviathan is pulled.
