The Adventure Fallen Masks, is a challenge to get 25 waypoints, in 3 Minutes and 15 seconds. This generally, even if you do it perfectly isn't possible.

The first mask is always in the same place, and takes 2.5 seconds to get to.

The second mask can spawn in 5 places, and will take 5-6.5 seconds to get to from the first.

The third through twenty-fifth can spawn in 15 different locations that can take between 3 seconds at minimum (rarely) and up to 19 seconds to get to, with an average of around 9 seconds to get from check mark to check mark.

That means an average RNG run, with the best possible skill will take you 3 minutes, 27 seconds to beat. The time limit is 3 minutes and 15 seconds

A bad RNG run, even if done perfectly, has a minimum completion time of 5 minutes and 34 seconds (about)

The odds of getting a RNG run that is even possible is LESS THAN 2% Unfortunately, I'm not perfect at this. So in a bit over three hours (60 attempts) I've only had maybe one possible run, that I messed up.

If you assume average RNG per player, and that they will mess up about half of the time, at 18 runs an hour, you have an average completion time of 5 hours and 25 minutes, with it not being unreasonable for it to take over 12 hours if you're unlucky.

  • Is a single mastery point and achivement worth 1 AP worth 5 and a half hours?

  • This needs to be fixed, make it set possible rotations instead of random.
