I feel like the Co-Op bosses category should be split based on if the players are all fighting the same boss together, or they split up, as if only one person in four has a pc to record on, they just cant compete with runs where they split up, because they can only do one boss at a time, vs 4 at a time
Hello. This might be a bad suggestion because I am not a speed runner so I apologize. I often watch speed runners to see if I can incorporate anything into my own game play for time saving purposes.
I think a daily, or semi-daily activity related speedrun might be something you would want to consider. This might not be a traditional category within SRing but has a lot of potential for competition because of how many players have been doing this daily, or semi-daily. It would be a good opportunity to showcase the SR community maybe as well.
They fall under 2 categories: investigation (artifact) exploration routes, as well as crystal chunk routes.
These are highly repeatable but can essentially be attempted only once per day per account for (investigations), and 2-3 days for crystal chunks, depending on the 'route' as there is RNG involved in non Chasm specific routes IIRC.
I think at the very least, a investigation category would be amazing and something that laymen/non SRs would enjoy watching if visibility is something to be considered and has potential for a lot of different variations in format
please give it some consideration and maybe a response
three ideas:
-
I don't know if this exists already, but speed run for each domain challenge at every level
-
max level up for each character
-
completion of each group of achievements, like completing the entire "Chasmlighter" or "Meetings In Outrealm: Series I". Also, this could be edited to have all the achievements in a series, so all the ones in Meetings In Outrealm would be combined. (I think this would be a good idea as an alternative to possibly having a "Max Exploration" leaderboard)
I'm not a speedrunner and probably never will be, but I would love to see actual speedrunners try some of these :)
Daily commissions. There could be a split between regions or just any region. I'll be speedrunning this regardless, though
