I started my guise camp on Saturday at 10pm and got it on Monday at 2am. I started the list at #8 and was #2 after approx. 12 hours. One person below me wasn't paying attention and got agro by being too close to the ladder and died, then died a second time spending too much time away from the camp. Another person failed when their internet went out. He came back much later (with better luck I hope). The person who won the final guise in the first 12 hours camped out with out clicking the mask which doomed the rest of us to a 14hr ish dry spell. The shaman at #1 had at least a 40 hour wait to get his mask (shiver). I then got my mask 2 hours later so 28 hours total.
What I noticed at the guise camp, if any are curious, is that you don't need a stack of IVU potions. You just need enough to get to the camp and when you leave. You'll be hanging out up the ladder in the room killing 3 mobs every 28 minutes unless you pull more from below. The six lowest on the list will be in a group and they will be active most of the time. When #1 get his/her/they/it's mask the new #6 will get invited to the group. Those not in the group can be active or not, doesn't really matter but it does get the mobs deader faster when they do help. I chose to be active all 28 hours except for a 20 minute break at the 23 hour mark. That 10 minute popup is annoying by the way. There will be plenty of Supplier bags dropping with some daggers as well thrown in by the not-so-helpful Assassin but don't expect to see a thick banded belt drop. And don't bring a abu box with you I saw I think 4 drop there. I met some nice peeps there which helped a bunch along with plenty of caffeine drinks and a marathon of bad Rifftrax movies.

Goodluck on your attempt. Also running into the wall just before Assassin spawns and turning around in barrels seemed to help.

I was on the first list with Frog and fell asleep after 17 hours was at position 3(i know weak sauce) But im glad i did because for me to get my mask it would of taken me 19 hours more to get it in that list. So then i joined on Monday at 3am and got it after 19 hours. Which is pretty close to even as far as total time. But 40+ hours straight compared to two 17-19 hour is a MUCH different camp.

This weekends crew got 2 HUGE droughts of 15+ hours between drops. The one on monday never had more than a 3 hour drought. So it went pretty quick.

I'm alone and if i die nobody will find me for awhile.
Also you really dont need to eat any food for a few weeks if you aren't underweight so just have liquid on hand and a toilet nearby? Lol

Well honestly the Corona Virus helps with this. My wife and I have been stuck with each other in our house for 3 weeks 24/7. We are fine of course but when you spend THAT much time together some alone time is not only welcomed but appreciated.

Did she roll her eyes when i played all night? SURE. Did she say you are 41 years old and playing a game all night? SURE. Did she go off and do her own thing immediately afterwards? SURE [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I had to take some ego/maturity shots to the gut of course. But beyond that in this type of quarentine its cool if either of us want to spend a few hours doing our own thing without having to engage each other at all hours of the day.

Looks like WIKI was updated and MAY was crossed out for legacy drops and June 2020 put in? Looks like June is correct then?

If that's true, that would be great! Would do much to calm those lists down I think.

Could any of the staff quickly confirm what the date will actually be?; just a quick official post would be great!
