Equipment

• Full Survivors Insignia
• Martial weapon with an 'of Enchanting' mod

Usage

• Use Shadow of Haste immediately after spawning in Riven Earth, and get to the first shrine next to the town for the blessing. Cancel to warp back and save some time.
• Maintain Dwarven Stability except when about to aggro the Destroyers en route to the third shrine (they use Shatter Enchantment).
• Chain Dash->Escape, canceling Escape with Dash only when Escape will be recharged by the time Dash runs out (differs depending on Delver rank).
• Use Ebon Escape to shadow step to NPCs along the path. Or catch up to the other runners if you suck.
• If your farmer is a Mist/Shadow Form farmer, after reaching the first shrine, continue past towards the third shrine and activate Shadow of Haste once you reach the end of the bridge. Be sure not to cancel it and run back to the second shrine. Once 25 kills are reached, grab the bonus and cancel Shadow of Haste. Continue running.
• Use "I Am Unstoppable!" when running past the spiders and destroyers.
• Death's Charge at enemies directly on your path.

Counters

• Bodyblock/Lag
• Farmer dying
• Simians copying snare skills because the people following you forgot to take them off.
• People aggroing Cloudtouched Simians because they're terrible.
• W/N farmers

Notes

• Sliver-form Farmers: 2-5 extra shrines. Depends upon how many buffs they have.
• Hundred Blades Farmers: 1 extra shrine.
• Each extra shrine is only 30 points. More fun than standing around though.
• Keep in mind that this run is done in Hard Mode. You cannot afford to take many hits.
