a run is possible to clear an Ancient Vault, for example, any% focus only on getting the chest of ancient tributes and 100% clearing all treasures from the vault
so like, how fast can you get just the tributes chest out from opening it vs how fast to get all the treasure out? How would the mods know its all the treasure? And wouldnt it be a less than two minute run? Does time end when you drop it outside the vault, or when you walk it out the vault. Or does time start from starting the quest?
Actually 100% would be a little more difficult to verify, but I imagine that for the run to have a higher degree of competitiveness, time would start when placing the key in the safe door and end when holding the chest of the old tributes
is there a way to ensure you get silver/stone or whatever keys? Because those who are higher level (most runners are pirate legend) will probably only get gold keys. Lower level keys create a smaller vault and therefore would make it easier to find the 3 vault coins. You cant even make a new character for this because vault quests unlock at level 25. Im just curious to know if its possible for a pirate legend to get a lower value key
the level of the key only influences the run in the idea of 100% of the clean vault, but as for solving the puzzle the type of the key interferes little, because there are several ways to solve, just find the fastest
but you have to find the 3 coins to solve the puzzle, better quality vaults have more floors above where the coins can be hidden
4th pillar contains the design of the first 3 pillars, just look at the 4 pillar to solve the puzzle, there are 4 possible solutions, the perfect RNG would be the 4th pillar to have the correct solution, as in this clip
ah i understand how it works, thats smart. When you said the coins are optional i did think this could be an okay run. But i think now that ive seen this clip, from the door opening it only would've taken 16 seconds to grab the chest there and it wouldn't result in much of a run, its a lot of work to get to whats literally one bit of RNG. That being said, its really cool to see you dont need the coins
