24h Challenge: From Rags to Riches

[bcbrown]

I spent an 1:20 in RunnyEye and came away with a haul: Blackened Alloy Longsword, Blackened Alloy Bastard Sword, Blackened Alloy Coif, Grotesque Alloy Mask, Blackened Alloy Armplates, Onyx Ring. Then I ran to N Ro and took the boat to Iceclad and ran to the EW orc fort where I got a four Orc Fang Earrings and no Rygorr Chain drops after 2:30. I decided to give up that hope and traveled to Warsliks Woods. 2:30 more in travel time and camping time and I had a pair of Iksar Scaled Gloves and ran back to OT. I have to travel for the next few days and my corpse was in danger of rotting so I decided to pause it there. I got a port back to WC, corpsed my progress, and looted my original corpse.

If I come back to finish the time, I'd go to Faydwer for:
Bloodstained Mantle or Crested Spaulders
Hooded Black Cloak
Jagged Band

Then Antonica for Ivy Etched Sleeves and Mithril Breastplate, then finish out my time looking for a Swiftclaw Sash and a Wakizashi of the Frozen Skies. I bet I'd be left with about 6 hours in Stonebrunt.

This has been a really fun challenge! Travel time is really not bad at all with the ranger buffs. I got really lucky with a lot of drops, but also wasted a lot of time in Mistmoore and the Eastern Wastes. I've got a lot of ideas on how to be more efficient and more ambitious on the next attempt.
