Time Attack: After clearing Table Mountain and defeating the Tainted Insect the time attack mode is unlocked from the main menu. Time attack mode has the player starting from the Warehouses in Canyon Hamlet and trying to clear Table Mountain as fast as possible while a timer in the bottom right corner keeps track of time.

Time Attack penalizes the player with a 10 minute addition to their time if they don't have at least 10,000 Gitan upon completing the time attack. This will not be taken into consideration when times are submitted and only the players actual time will be listed.

Item Carry In

The game allows you to carry in an item with you. You can carry in a Holding Jar [5] and inside of it, 5 of the following items on your journey. For the purposes of this challenge, any and all items are allowed and encouraged as the goal is to clear the game with the quickest possible time.

Anything Goes Strategy

There aren't any village stops or rest areas allowed along the way. The player is penalized by the game (10 minutes) if they don't collect 10,000 Gitan along the way. We ignored this in the community, instead choosing to base our times on our actual play time and not some arbitrary penalty the devs made up.

The game allows you to bring a single item into Table Mountain. This can be abused by readying up a Holding Jar +5 with powerful gear inside. A weapon and Shield are the minimum suggestions. As well as items such as an Armband of Sight and a Postpone Staff.

The "seals" (also called Runes in this series) used on this weapon and shield are inefficient. For Example, the Kigny Shield which occasionally passes off damage to other monsters, (similar to the pass scarf in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon) can really slow down gameplay. Another shield seal that's arguably negative is the Spiked Ward, which occasionally returns damage taken to monsters. This just displays additional dialogue, slowing things down.
