2015 Spring RFO Results

maareek · Jun 8, 2015

Well the two entrants with outstanding final results seem to have not been around since the RFO started, so I elected to not make everyone wait for them. If you two have results, you can still feel free to send them and I'll add them to the list and make a post and all that jazz.

In the spirit of the event I will troll you just a little further, but believe me it is in your best interest. Clicking the following spoiler has been shown to cause heart attacks, strokes and mind-blowage, so enter at your own risk.

I mean it, you alone are responsible for any injuries suffered beyond this point.

I, for one, welcome our new Croatian overlord.

Well, remember when we all trolled Grip about how easily he'd crush everybody and how he was guaranteed to win? Yeah, maybe we should not have done that. On the plus side, last year after an inhuman performance in the MFO he put in a remarkably human showing in the RFO (at least comparing it to the current lot, in which my winning score from last year would rank 9th) so perhaps everyone should pile in on the next MFO in hopes of defeating the Croatian Juggernaut?

For anyone having troubles with the spoiler inside a spoiler above, I've also posted the results in a code box later on.

Thanks to Gripphon for coming up with the tournament and providing the rules and all. Thanks to all the participants for your hard work, and for getting your results in so quickly. I've left off those who reported having no qualifiers, either by PM or forum post, so please let me know if I'm in error on that.

This was a cool event and I'm glad to have been part of it, and especially glad to have had the behind the scenes view of events as they unfolded (it was really cool as we neared the end seeing the top spot get passed around and having to shuffle the list around). Congratulations to everyone not only on your finds, but on just hanging in there for some runs and, hopefully, having some fun.

See you all next RFO!

Rune totals:

Mal: 33
Um: 47
Gul: 36
Ist: 18
Ohm: 22 (no one who found an Ohm found only 1)
Vex: 24
Sur: 13
Lo: 16
Jah: 13
Ber: 6
Cham: 10

Plus a single Mal from 1.07 (only scrcrw and pharphis ran 1.07, and scr split his time).

We can compare those to last year's totals:

Runes from whole RFO:

Um 18 (2)
Mal 27 (1)
Ist 16
Gul 5
Vex 14 (1)
Ohm 4
Lo 4
Sur 3
Ber 3
Jah 6
Cham 3

Inside brackets are number of runes from 1.07.

And see that Ber is trying very hard to make a case as the rarest rune from Travincal.

Most repetition on a single rune: 8x, Gul
Highest-end sequence in a set: Ber, Jah, Cham
Longest contiguous sequence: Mal-Sur

Based on the numbers reported to me I estimate roughly 470 total hours run in the RFO (I don't have complete confidence in that number, but I think it's representative enough based on feeling pretty sure about most people's times, though it does assume two people did not run at all) which works out to a little over 18 hours per entrant. An impressive effort, all around.

Zylo · Jun 8, 2015

Great work everyone. Thanks for helping out with this maareek, and thanks for putting this on Gripphon. Two people rockin' three sets? You guys are animals, that's crazy.

maareek · Jun 8, 2015

I was very pleased to see how many people ran, and how high the results were pushed this time. Was a pleasure and congrats to all.

Gripphon1 · Jun 8, 2015

Here are few comics I made for this occasion. Some of them needed to finish after results, but everything is ready! Sorry that I didn't do comic for everyone, don't have that much time nor imagination to do it. Please consider those comics as joke, I didn't want to offend anyone with them.

pharphis · Jun 8, 2015

I think you mixed up the order of ohm and vex in your rune count list

No qualifiers. Not surprised ;(
I don't know if this is a worse feeling than 3x templar's and scoring worse than Thyiad in previous MFO...

Uniques and sets: nothing worth mentioning

P Gems: 1007

I ran pretty slowly tbh. First set was with Zealot (fail). I noticed about halfway through that he had a Prayer merc, as he was born years ago as a Hammerdin. Too lazy to change it and reroll map, so I dealt with it. Switched to Barb for 2nd and 3rd set, and qualifiers started to appear more frequently. My goal going in was 2x Jah to make a couple of dreams... fail. I can barely cube up to 1x Jah. :| I just used the timer on my iPhone and didn't do run times, knowing they'd be ugly and discouraging. Still, would've liked to have seen at least 1 qualifier above Sur in 60 hours...

I picked up gems, jewels, charms, rare claws, and assorted other stuff. I also cubed as I went, not stopping the timer until it was time to mule. Also, Grip cheats.

Wow. Great work everyone. And it's uncanny: I've never seen a picture of maareek until Grip posted those, but he looks exactly how I've always pictured.

frozzzen1 · Jun 8, 2015

Man, this event reminds me of old MFOs when forums were brimming with activity :')
Glad we had so many players and so much tryhards.

I'm ok with placing third behind One True God. Not shame in being beaten by God, alright? Kinda surprised that I managed to place so high without Cham or Ber found, but I guess quantity > quality for RFO.
Gratz on insane performance/luck/paint skillz grip. Well deserved.

2 x BKWB were only notable uniques, and 12max/12allress jewel was only decent one.

I think moral of the story is that Blizzard sorc are best build at running trav. Barbs are outdated! Sorcs are very safe characters when built properly and I encourage everyone to try them. No clogging with items on ground, very safe, very fast and very easy to play once you get basics of character.
No deaths, NDEs, one merc death due to no BO in 3500 runs.

Tnx Grip for hosting this event and maareek for doing the dirty work. It has been fun, frustrating and I hope to see you next time at Nulio Rocks.

Thyiad1 · Jun 8, 2015

Congrats to all.

Could we restart now for an evening? I've got nothing to do except sit here at work so I could run ...

Grape1 · Jun 8, 2015

Gongrats on your finds everyone! Expect to see some new shiny runewords in the IFT soon.

Gripphon just set a record that will be very hard to beat in the future RFO(s). Absolutely incredible score there!

Fabian · Jun 8, 2015

Congrats Grip. No surprise of course!

Gripphon1 · Jun 8, 2015

Allow me to tell you my story of this RFO.

Set 1:
Well it was ordinary set overall, with slight annoyance at one part, I had between 900 and 1000 runs without qualifier in this set. That is very unlucky streak and it took me almost 5 hours to get out of it. I was very annoyed since last RFO I had even worse, 7 hours without qualifier. To connect that unlucky streak to this sorc of mine, that would be like near 1200 runs without qualifier. Luckily rest of the set was kind enough to drop me a total of 15 qualifiers which is slightly below expectations as is my final score of the set. Didn't find top 3 high qualifiers, but oh well. Overall quite good set, found fine of good luck and fine of vita here so I had horses for race at non-qualifiers stuff at least.

Set 2:
This is where fun began. Got Sur and Ohm first day of starting set, which was nice start. Second day was first highlight of RFO. Started with Vex dropping, 1 hour later first Cham and finally Lo dropped as last high rune of the day. I was very happy to find my first Cham on RFO ever and thought this could be first set where I might actually have at least average luck, and not below average like last 3 sets provided. I also experienced my first RFO death in second day of second set. Next day started with a bang, second Cham dropped inside first half hour of playing for that day. I thought to myself WOW, another Cham, am I lucky or what. This set is looking better and better. Can I aim for some epic score? This all happened inside first 2k runs of second set. Naturally other stuff dropped too, but who will memorize all the Ums and Guls and stuff.

Then came another shocker. OK, day started quietly, I think here was the point of approximately 500 runs without qualifier, and then Vex dropped. Nice. 1 hour later came that shocker aka best screenshot of RFO. Double event, as people from Pacific Rim would say.

This was also my last high rune of second set that ended as pleasant surprise. As interesting information, on half point of this set my score was in ~120 range already, so second part of the set got me 80 score worth to get to 200+. I finally had set above expectations aka lucky set for me. And 2 Chams too, great! I'm very happy, let's end this RFO at once.

But nooooooooo. 8k runs was done till that point, and 10k seemed like beautiful target. 3 days till the end, to go for it or not? I will go for it I decided, don't know will I do this again during RFO and lets use this opportunity to do it! And so it began...

Set 3
Set I call freak of the nature, or set on steroids if you like. Second set was on high lucky side, but nothing extremely overpowered. But this third set... it defies logic, math and statistics. Not de facto, but this set was obviously ridiculous and honestly I had slight dilemma whether or not to report it because how monstrous it looks. But decided with some thinking and suggestions (ty guys) it would be stupid not to report such thing, even if it seems ridiculous, hardly believable and overpowered beyond measure.

Set started kind of quiet actually. Ok, not THAT quiet, first qualifier Mal dropped inside 60 runs, but until 450 runs I found nothing else. And then magic started. From 450th run till 2000th run is one of most ridiculous things I've seen in diablo career. Let us go step by step now. Unfortunately I didn't memorize drops of Vex- runes, but they did drop along with high runes naturally, but I can only guess when something dropped since I didn't write it on paper.

13:32 Lo dropped

13:49 Vex made appearance

Talking about great start, already 30+ points and not even 500 runs done. Here I took slight pause since I started running before 11. And then before 500th run tick:

14:26 Jah dropped

It was first mentioning of god with this drop. After having that second set, it was quite pleasant surprise to get another one of big boys. Also having quite high score below 500 runs meant one thing, I must finish this set and hope for the best. Set didn't disappoint me.

14:41 Ohm

Ok, this set is looking really good, got 3 good runes quite quickly and I have even more reason to go all out and finish this set! What I didn't know is beast waited for me next.

15:02 Cham, third on RFO!

Holy jesus god! That was my reaction on this drop. Third Cham this RFO, what a the odds? That's it, this set is going full 20 hours, no excuses. I play for the rest of the day to use all my luck while it lasts.

There was no quiet period yet, this set was on fire and lower qualifiers dropped all the time as I ran. Until another drop happened that made my jar drop. Second Cham of the set, fourth of RFO. How, what, why?! Is this for real?!

17:42 Cham no. 2

This is just insane. I thought it is perhaps map thing, don't know. Chams are dropping like Mals lol. At this point I had more Chams than Ists on whole RFO. Ridiculous. This are not done just yet!

18:34 Ohm made appearance

Now it followed slightly quiet period. Not deaf quiet, but not period on steroids like it was until that point. And then toward the end of the day and I think it was at ~1700th run of the day, another big boy dropped.

23:16 Jah no 2.

Another mentioning of gods name. I mentioned his name enough time to become a believer! Second Jah?! Two Chams?! Seriously?! WTF. That was my reaction. I must keep going, my luck is obviously insane right now and must use all of it. I played till like 2 am with pauses until I finally stopped.

First day of third set: finished 2000 runs, played for 11 hours, had 13 qualifiers drop of which 8 were Vex+. That equals my previous record where I also found 8 Vex+ runes in 24 hour period, also in Travincal. But this was freak of the nature of the set so far, nothing I've seen before. My score at halfway point was... 166.9 if I remember correctly. Yes, freaking 166.9 after 11 hours of playing.

Amusing this was, this set looked a lot like second set, like a twin brother, until second Jah dropped. I thought I could have exactly same set twice! Yeah right, but it would be amusing for sure.

Second day was quiet one and I also experienced second most unluckiest streak this RFO here, it was ~650 runs without a qualifier. But like I care with drops from first day, I'm already super happy and will finish the set satisfied. Ok, I did want to get another 200+ score set and this one was meant to be. During second day I did 950 runs and found 3 qualifiers in it.

Third and last day of third set and also of RFO. This set obviously took rest day and now it was ready to explode again! I still battled to get 200+ score and hoped I will make it. Well, it didn't take too long for nice qualifier to show its face yet again:

12:20 Vex

Talking about nice start and crossing of 200 points! Hell yeah, I did it and still have like 900 runs left till the end of the set!

And then, Harry Potter stuff happened yet again. It was like 3300 runs into the set and like 600 runs before the end. BAM!

14:27 Cham no. 3

My reaction? I stood up from the chair and asked out loud "How is this possible?". I was shocked, me who sold more runes than I used in my diablo career, I was shocked with rune drop. Lol. Third Cham? Fifth this RFO? Sixth inside 12k runs if we include that Cham before RFO that I tossed on ground? I took calculator and wanted to know what a the odds to find 5 Chams in 12k runs. It so happens to be ~1.8%. If we seek to know what is probability to find at least 5 Chams instead of exactly 5, it could be 2% or more. So, this even happens once in 50 RFOs to someone who does 12k runs. Insane. I thought probability will be less than that since this kind of probability actually rivals the one to not find qualifier in 1000 runs, which is interesting.

Also at this point I felt really ridiculous for having that kind of luck. I almost feared to find yet another Cham in next 600 runs because they obviously drop at insane rate these days. What would people think when they see one set with 2 Chams and one set with 3 Chams? Should I report this freak of set to scores or not? Well, I asked myself stupid questions, I'm just sharing my thoughts process here.

I didn't yet know this set didn't produce everything it had in store for me. Let us continue, shall we?

It was now quiet period with runes in general... Until last 300 runs. Freakshow started yet again there!

18:09 Lo rune

Wow, yet another high rune. Amazing. Will this set finally end? No, it won't, in fact now it will produce insanity in number of qualifiers in short amount of runs. It didn't take long to find big boy yet again.

18:33 Jah rune no. 3

I think at that point I still had like 200 runs till the end. I don't have to mention I again called gods name when Jah dropped, right? I felt incredibly ridiculous. This set is on freaking steroids and it doesn't end. What is next, Cham and Ber on same run? How this set looked like, I wouldn't be surprised if I saw that. Nothing could surprise me anymore. Another Cham in 200 runs? NP. Ber? Why not. Let us continue and see what will happen.

What happened is I didn't find any of big boys yet again (luckily lol), but number of qualifers along with Lo and Jah in 300 runs? Man. Insanity. I think total count of qualifiers in that period was 6, which means I found qualifier once per 50 runs. What in the world. Statistics, math, they are all wrong.

Set ended, I lost count of qualifiers I found, I didn't know how my score looked like, I just had idea where I am. And then when I looked in stash... holy lord, what is this? 1..2...3... 26 freaking qualifiers in this set. 26! Expectation for my sorc is in range of 16, but 26! Insanity. I don't know what to think. Hey, lets finally count score. 292 points. WHAT! I thought I'm in 280 region, but not at reach of freaking 300 points. ROFL. Talking about set on drugs.

Superman of sets indeed. It won't happen again. Ever. I mean that thing is a monster, I'm losing words to describe it. You thought "WTF is this even possible?" when you saw my third set? Exactly that I thought after finishing it, and I did whole running. How is this possible? What if I continued running in fourth set, would I found another 5 Chams this time? Or 5 Jahs? I mean I felt ridiculous and this set was ridiculous.

I died with sorc during that set too, but who cares. I was tired as hell, and those insane drops kept me going and going without stopping. Would you stop? Neither would I and didn't, went till the end.

Also started fourth set just to do 55 runs to complete 12k runs for RFO since my time was worse in this third set due to exhaustion and unplayable atmosphere around with hot days and such.

This is my whole RFO with sorc:

Don't let total playing time fool you, I didn't overreach 20 hours, simply do number of runs * avg time. Total time included cubing gems and stuff when I didn't do running at all. I will upload haulpics etc, don't worry.

Gripphon1 · Jun 8, 2015

It is time for haulpics and general drops during RFO. Everything that dropped on RFO I already mentioned and listed here

Total amount of some stuff farmed:

2008 pgems of which 315 are amethysts, 314 rubies and 206 skulls
1223 jewels total of which 30 are rainbow facets, 198 are rare jewels and 995 are magic jewels
262 Ral runes, 208 Sol runes and only 6! Pul runes

To add to that, this RFO farmed total of 60 qualifiers of which 28 are Vex+ runes.

Set 1

Set 2

Monster Set 3

Haulpic of Gul- qualifiers:

Haulpic of Vex+ qualifiers:

Facets. First, I apologize for messy haulpic, I forgot too many times that I had facet in inventory and went to ID it with other stuff. 30 facets and only 2 are 5/5? tssss

tc3 and stuff:

Some rings and amulets:

Shakos and Wizardspikes cause I love them

All runes I have, SC and HC combined, after RFO:

Top effort in my best period of playing when starting second set:

1 day of Travincal (first day of third set)

That day farmed 332 pgems, 13 qualifiers, 2 Jah and 2 Cham runes. Recordbreaking day of d2 for me.

Only thing left to do is to find Ber rune. Ber doesn't exist confirmed. Actually Ber is true Cham of RFO!

Nice effort everyone and very good scores out there. Tons of runes were farmed this RFO indeed. Runes confirmed lol once again! Also you don't need LK to find runes, Travi works too!

srrw · Jun 8, 2015

Grip, that third set of yours is just... wow. I can't... I'm speechless.

Huge congratulations!

At some point I though if I had actually finished the 20 hours I'd be somewhere in the top three, lol silly me.

GooberGrape1 · Jun 9, 2015

@Gripphon this RFO will be SPF legend. You took the game to a whole new level.

As for me I'm just happy I finally got my Enigma and Grief! Now comes the hard part, where to use that Cham...

pharphis · Jun 9, 2015

the answer is ALWAYS zod god if it is a cham+ rune

Kitteh1 · Jun 9, 2015

Congratulations! Gripphon and LQ beat me twice xD

Thanks to Gripphon for getting the wheels turning and thanks to Maareek for supervising!

Cyrax1 · Jun 9, 2015

Did i mention my score was just a late entry from last year?

Astonishing that beating last years winning score only got me to 8th place. Didn't think it was enough to win, but i did think i'd end up higher than this.

The story of my RFO:

Set 1:
Rough start. About 4,5 hrs in before the first qualifier dropped. Q2 was much better. Horked a sur and also found ber. Started to think this could turn out well after all. That hope got crushed quickly by another dry streak during Q3. The last quarter made up for it a bit, by horking a ber in the last 15 mins of the set. At that point i wasn't that hapy with it. I thought it might've been better if that dropped early on in the second session. Still after counting score i found out i beat last years winner. So not as bad as i thought it was.

Set 2:
Started out great. After first 7,5 hrs my score was like 70. Now i really wished that ber had waited to drop in second set. After that i hit a dry streak. And it was much bigger than either of them during the first 20 hrs. Didn't find a single qualifier for somewhere close to 900 runs. Which meant any hope i had of having a good score totally disappeared. Near the end i horked a ber (yes i horked sur and 2 ber) and found a few lower qualifiers. That at least made the score bearable.

Overall running started out rough. Didn't practise beforehand and it showed during first half hour or so. Also had my first and only death there. Despite having died (no recovery) i did gain like half a lvl (@94). First set ended with 1589 runs (average of 45,3s). Second set shaved off a good 3 seconds on average. After about 12 hrs i rerolled maps to try and get councils in the first area. This shaved off another ~0,3s. I think i did 130 or 140 runs more than first set (i'd have to check, but at work now). Average of second set was sub 42s. Didn't help though. More runs, lesser score.

With better map and a bit of gear switching i think i could improve on second set.

Funny to see that i single handedly got half the bers that dropped during RFO. Bers however do seem to be a bad omen in this RFO because with 8th place i'm the highest ber finder. None of the first 7 found even 1! Still i'm happy with them because they were the rune i needed the most.

Sure, with those drops everyone would do 3 sets.

Gripphon said:
Should I report this freak of set to scores or not?

Should've asked me. I would've told you not to report this.

For next RFO i was planning on looking to improve my barb some. But after Griph's showing i may need to see how my sorc does (and i bet i'm not the only one that's gonna try that

). Probably won't be doing another one this year though as we still have MFO upcoming and this RFO thing means my 98 necro doesn't move for a whole 2 weeks.

Screenshots will have to wait till i get home.

Gripphon and Maareek thanks for hosting and keeping track of scores. Hope to see all runners again next time.

Grape1 · Jun 9, 2015

The next question is how many Tyrael's Mights will Grip find in the MFO?

I had my hot streak in the beginning: Cham after 30 minutes and Ber at 45 minutes. Made me change my equipment from gold finding to killing speed. Then it was a downhill for the rest of the time. Long dry streaks and no big runes.
