Currently the No Artifacts category is restricted to Monsoon only, with the idea of it replicating a "vanilla" run you might do casually or see most content creators play.

The opinions on this among the mod team are fairly split, so we figured the best way forward would be to ask the community, what do you think? Should it be kept to Monsoon? Should we allow Drizzle? Maybe have both as a subcategory?

I would prefer both being available if we're going to have an arbitrary restriction on the category. If people want to run one or the other I say let them decide for themselves

Both as subcategory if possible, but if it's one or the other then Monsoon only

Honestly would prefer if it stayed monsoon only

The gap between "any%, 10% damage taken, 200% damage dealt, artifacts on, drizzle" and "no artifacts, 100/100, monsoon" is really wide, would love to see a category somewhere inbetween if I'm being honest.

Would prefer any difficulty to be allowed

id prefer if Lach wasn't allowed

omg hi furon big fan

subcategories is always the way to go as i allows different playstyles

I think it's weird to allow drizzle and monsoon runs to be shown in the same leaderboard, one is definitely more impressive and a better testament to one's skill at speed running.

Maybe for now just have Monsoon no artifacts, and a anything goes category.

If enough people do monsoon runs then it would make sense to create subcategories for both difficulties, but for now since there are so few runs in total its fine to combine them
