Mythos Speed Runs

The latest update to Mythos Europe went live today and introduced the new Dungeon Master system, which gives the title of Dungeon Master to players who are able to clear out dungeons in record time. The new system works on all dungeons except for Ruins Dungeons.

This is definitely an interesting feature to add to a MMORPG, which I don’t think has been done before. Speed run videos have been popular for quite some time now and if you go to Youtube you’ll find thousands of them for various games, although the vast majority of those games are single players game. If you have players who are constantly in dungeons doing speed runs and you have a quest in that dungeon, it’s going to get annoying.

Once activated, a timer will appear anytime a player enters a dungeon so they can keep track of their time and if a player beats the current record, they will be rewarded with in-game currency, items and travel stones and of course having their name listed in the record books.
