I cba updating this image since the route is perfectly good enough, but I've revised my strategy to get the best time I've ever achieved (1 minute 34 seconds - top 150 place):

  • Pre-charge Roller Beetle (map icon).pngRollerbeetle endurance.
  • Start the mission.
  • Rollerbeetle floor it up the hill, skipping the first cooler.
  • Switch to Springer (map icon).pngSpringer after rounding the corner/the Branded Dredge.
  • Scale the cliff. Avoid the Dredge and jump up into the high-up cooler (#1). While in midair, dismount with  Bond of Faith.png Bond of Faith and switch to Griffon (map icon).pngGriffon.
  • Dive down and land as soon as possible.
  • When you hit the ground, switch back to Rollerbeetle switch to Jackal (map icon).pngJackal. Spam Blink. Use  Bond of Vigor.png Bond of Vigor to recharge endurance and floor it up the hill towards the cooler at the top of Hundar Pike. If you lose speed, swap to Jackal (map icon).pngJackal.
  • Grab the cooler (#2) and jump up the cliff with Springer. Jump at the top as high as possible, use  Bond of Faith.png Bond of Faith.
  • Switch to Griffon, dive down into the abyss to pick up speed, heading north-north-east.
  • Pull up out of the abyss to land on the cooler and whilst maintaining height aim for the finish line.
  • Switch to Raptor (map icon).pngRaptor when you have to land and leap through the finish line back to Rollerbeetle. If Bond of Vigor recharges, use it.

Dunno if Jackal is much better on the slope than the beetle, but cutting out the third cooler after the griffon dive really saves a load of time (you'll be at the far end of the blinky red bit though...) -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 23:44, 25 May 2019 (UTC)
