Here's our rank 1 score from the Blade & Soul Brood Chamber dungeon challenge mode. This score gave us the rank 1 spot in the season 1 and 2. In the season 3 we did not try pushing for rank 1 as two of our players quit the game and didn't want to use time on this and i also wanted the Top 10 Achievement. Season 4 rank 1 will be done by the same group with new members but it is slightly lower than this.

We used 4 marks and did 14 coins each phase. This attempt was actually supposed to be 14-13-13 to guarantee the win over any other 13-13-13 teams but we felt it was more consistent with 14-14-14 so we just went for that mid pull :)

This pull was done 7.4.2019 so way before BM 3rd spec and some gear upgrades like ET.

Group:
FM (Fire) - Leitna - Driver
BM (Fire) - synde - Driver + Tank (POV) https://youtu.be/LVBkvSx1pyo
WL (Shadow) - Abria - Driver
BD (Wind) - Liyan - Driver
SIN - Ninjaaaah - Afk
DES - Fashira - Afk

All of us were using 25pts in movement speed to keep up with the driving speed. We also used HM block as movement speed buff at the beginning of the driving and BD's movement speed buff at the middle section of the driving phase.


Quick explanation on point calculation:
Yellow coins:
- First 4 yellow coins are worth 0 points each. Anything after that is 600 points each
- We did 14-14-14 but 15-15-15 is the absolute maximum. This strat atleast used to required some gunners. I dont know if 3rd specs made it possible with other classes. I've seen only 1 KR video doing this and even they missed 1 coin at last phase (Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EF5_5...)

Phase timer (Green bar):
- Phase timer starts at 2min 30sec (150 seconds)
- You will start losing points when the timer has 1min 52 sec left ( 112sec). Untill that the phase timer DOES NOT affect your phase-by-phase score.
- 1min 52sec in phase timer is the exact time when 6 marks would be ready if you choose to create 6 marks
- You will lose 10 points every second after 1min 52sec is left in phase timer. The game will round the second up or down depending on whether it is at the upper or lower spectrum of the second..
- The lower amount of marks you create the more points you can gain from phase-by-phase timer.
- Do NOT confuse phase timer to overall timer. Creating less marks will affect positively in your phase timer AND your overall kill timer. They are different things.
- You can obviously end the driving phase with 1 or even 2 seconds left in the boss debuff which will grant you those seconds in phase-by-phase bonus points (10 per second). This is why the phase score can be 10-20pts lower or higher sometimes

Damage taken:
- Did not bother to calculate how it works but overall it does actually matter whether or not you take damage incase another team uses the same driving and mark strats and pushes the boss to phase after the same attack as you. In our attempt one player took damage from one attack.

Stars:
- Each phase gives stars. Obviously 1 star is worth 1k points. You gain more stars the more yellow coins you collect. 3 is maximum per phase.

Battle time:
- Did not bother calculating the effect here either. The general consensus was that you need to push to 90% as fast as possible to gain some extra points. If you cannot gain more yellow coins then the only way to get a better score is to reduce marks. For example for our team it would've probably been impossible to get 15 coins but it would've probably been possible to reduce marks to 3 instead of 4.
- You should be able to push the boss to next phase instantly after driving starts. If it doesn't go to next phase after the 5-hit attack you will lose lots of points in battle time.
- Each extra mark you create loses you 5 seconds per phase (15sec total). This will lose you about 500 points which you should gain back from collecting more coins when driving.
For example 2 marks each phase, pushing to 90% after cross attack will end your kill at 3:45 battle time giving you 16300 points while 4 marks and pushing to 90% after 3rd attack (31 second difference) will give you 15279 points.

Any other questions? Feel free to ask :D
