What's interesting is, I clearly made several mistakes and I've found some faster lines since (although several of them are much more risky). This time can definitely be improved upon.

Hi, so I left SWTOR back near the start of 7.0 due to me being tired of the game's class balance and lack of end-game content. Since then I've gotten into speed-running to the point I'm actually recording and submitting times. Back in the day, I often "speed-ran" heroics and dailies for conquest, but never seriously and never with any video proof. I had played the game for many years and was quite good at it, and still have a lot of knowledge around it's mechanics.

I think a way for me to come back to this game may be through speed running. However, I did have some questions/thoughts before re-subbing to the game.

I noticed that for the none of the categories had any rules or subcategories around combat class. This means that stealth classes will always dominate the leader-boards since skipping mobs is always faster than not. Now, I can kind of understand it for the group runs since it's hard to dictate things there. But for all the solo stuff, I think it makes sense. (Well maybe not 1-10 leveling since I don't think you get stealth until after 10). Just a thought I had there.

For Legacy stuff, I was a little confused, since I have an account where I've maxed out my legacy and unlocked all my legacy perks. Does that mean I can't do any LG runs? I understand I can't use my legacy bank, mail, GTN, Cartel Market (or unlocks thereof), or join a guild.

Final thought: Has there ever been any thought about adding categories for finishing the Weekly missions for daily areas (i.e. Black Hole, CZ-198, Oricon, etc.)? What about completing all Heroics on a planet (you'd need to have separate categories for Empire and Republic sides (For example: complete all Republic Tatooine Heroics)? Maybe even subcategories for with/without all bonus missions? Yes, I know there can be some RNG around the open-world ones, but that's part of the struggle and part of the fun.

Anyways, it would be cool to speed-run SWTOR. It doesn't seem like there's a lot of people doing it, which is surprising given how large the game is, so there seems like there's room for me to set some records.

As Gamebuster pointed out, this run does not qualify for this category.

This run was done in "Excite" mode, and this category requires the runs to be done in either "Super Excite" or "Mirror Excite" mode.

Evidence:

  1. If you look at the top of the screen where the score and time limit are listed, you'll see the background color is green. This color changes based on mode: Green - Excite Red - Super Excite Blue - Mirror Excite

  2. His total score was 168, but his rank was given as an S. Excite and Super Excite have different thresholds for S Rank: Excite S-Rank Threshold: 150 Super/Mirror Excite S-Rank Threshold: 170

Had his score of 168 been achieved in Super Excite, he would have received a rank of "A", not S.

I definitely agree there should at least be deciseconds (since the in-game timer gives those to you. I have no problem with milliseconds for if/when re-times are needed.
