Closest call...Hydra

    So people always come in here with 'first', 'fastest', 'best' or 'highest' posts. I wanted to put one up for 'closest'. Doing Hydra the other night and it was not going well...looking like it was going to be a fail, but we pulled it out and somehow she died at the last second. Now I've been in a lot of runs where it was down to the buzzer...under 10 seconds when she died, but this was WAY less. So as the PS4 holds a 15 min cache of video, I went back and saved the screen cap. Reviewed it and indeed it was close....0.4 seconds to be exact.

    It was quite nerve wracking to be honest, but a pretty good feeling to have pulled it out. It was a rando group and everyone poured it on at the end, so a weird satisfaction seeing as we had pretty much biffed it early on (or we'd have had her done at the 1 min mark).

    I'll try to get the video up later (it was made on an alt account that doesn't have YouTube/Twitch rights), but yeah....anyone else know that they came in lower than 0.4 seconds?

    And I thought the 16 seconds til a fail was close...

    To be fair the 1 second win I was in was just a day after 255 skip happened so i think alot of the ppl there were skipped alts or 1st timers that used the skip.

    I’m wondering if that was the one I was in. I was fighting Hydra around that same time and I must have been lagging because there was definitely still a visible sliver of health there when the shot clock hit “0”. But a second later that sliver ticked off, the on screen messaging appeared and Wonder Wonder was once again double-dogg daring PETA to “Say Sum’in!!

    Ok, the video is up there. Before you click on it and tell me it sucks, I put it together at work on free software that didn't have (or I couldn't find) the black bar on. So...there is a watermark and 2 wonky badges covering the alt name and chat channels, it's one of my kid's accounts that I use for farming stuff so I didn't need any hassle.

    That crap aside, the important part is there...at around 3:30 is the last 10 seconds of the fight. If you can watch around the other stuff.



    Oh...and now that I've got a video posted am I required by law to tell everyone I meet that I'm a 'Youtuber'? Or that you need to 'Click that button and ring that bell"....if so I guess I'm breaking the law...cause I'm not doing it.
