Been mulling over a Daily Commissions Speedrun. Noticed Galactiknight's post and found our rules to be somewhat similar.

I've run this several times on my stream to get a better handle of the rules and stomp out any particular cheese. This is what I've been doing so far.

RULES:

PLANNING PHASE: -Players can plan their route, apply food buffs and organize their team/s.

TIMER: -Timer begins once the first loading screen after teleporting to the first quest ends. -Timer is paused during load times IF you are between quests. Opting to teleport while in the middle of a quest is considered part of the quest and will require the timer to continue running. -Timer ends once the fourth (final) Green "Commission Complete" appears at the top of your screen. -If you elect to finish a quest and run to the next (no teleport) then the timer does NOT stop. This is considered travel time to quest. (Similar to teleporter to quest travel) -If you need to change your team, then the timer will continue to run during this process.

OTHER RULES: -Runs must begin from the Paimon Menu, this is a check that World Level is maxed for the current Adventure Rank. -From the Paimon Menu, teleport to your first location through the 'Map' option. -No custom teleporters are allowed. -There are no banned characters/weapon/artifacts.

Answers to Galactiknight's concerns/questions in regard to how they are treated within my own rule set. -(Looking at map) Yes, this is part of the planning phase.

-(Bursts) I normally do Dailies as the first thing so whether my characters have burst depends on their condition when I last played. The teams that I run generally have good Burst recharge so i'll get multiple within the 4 daily commissions. I do not see a problem with it as I've found travel time to be a big factor in achieving a good time.

-(Level) Yes. This is why we start at the Paimon menu as a way to ensure that World Level is maxed for the current Adventure Rank. (Each 'World Level' would require it's own category; alternatively only the current highest World Level would be legal '8')

-(Banned Characters/Items) No, it's a free for all. Could possibly have F2P and Whale as their own sub category. (I am F2P, outside of a few banner characters I'm only missing 2 from my roster.)

-(Liyue Base) I would say the opposite city of the daily commisions. [Eg. Mondstadt Dailies - Start in Liyue; Liyue Dailies - Start in Mondstadt] - As an example, today I had Mondstadt dailies but visited a Liyue Statue of Seven before run to heal up. I then teleported to Liyue to prepare for the run.

I explain the rules on my recent Youtube Daily Commissions Speedrun video and go over some of the different aspects relating to the timer and traveling between quests.
