Playing good and having the right gear simply did not cut it for us in the first attempt sadly. With a combination of finding the optimal party composition and theorycrafting, not only we managed to clear, but with an amazing sub 55 mins timing. We crafted our own strategies for this boss throughout the months (controlling the boss position, smoke timings, fast ressing, using partyinvites to def on bishops, and ofc most recently - bombing and using se to get a head start on b1). We reached the point where every move we made was intended and calculated, and it was truly a beautiful sight seeing our group so committed to our strategy. Combining that all together, we managed to shave some very respectable time off the clock. I want to thank the people who are responsible for this and for our success as a group in general: - Our organizers @autismax @Barte @CodGhost @nut (and our semi retired @midwinter ofc who helped us at the start) - for having full faith in me and letting me execute my ideas, as well as offering ideas and improvements of your own and keeping this group rolling. - @lxlx that despite not being an organizer, always helped me with fresh ideas and perspectives and directed me in the right path. Also being the #1 warrior in all aspects doesn't hurt your clear chances ofc - @Elie @Ras @caselead @ZJZJ who were a part of the first attempt, but sat this one out due to the shift to 5 shadowers. You guys are incredible players and it might have aswell been you there, this achievement is yours just as much as it is ours. - The rest of Finland VL group, for always being there with us and improving together - you guys are the best I'm sorry for a long post, this achievement meant a lot to us as a group, and proved to be way harder than we initially thought.

Or just hide in the corner I guess, but that goes against the spirit of the challenge. I realized it was theoretically possible as long as I avoided 1/1s and really wanted to run for the meme, however I'd never run this in a 12 man due to the large chance of me throwing hard. This was an unusual week where I didn't run bish in only 12 mans, so it gave me an opportunity to attempt it! I'm honestly surprised that I managed this first try, with only getting 1/1'd twice - once during ress at the start from a bird, and once near the end by a laser. Screenshots and Videos:

Inducted! Please let me know if you wish to change anything. I feel like this is more of RNG-based rather than skill-based so I am leaning toward not including this.. Inducted! It was the fastest run before today, so I've shifted your accomplishment to the previous speedrunner section!
Thanks! Also do you think it's a good idea to move this to Community section and pin it for visibility? I think it would be nicer
