Yeah, my first attempt at beating the record went bad when I realised I got unlucky and had no AK scrolls at all so had to start again. Restarted a gaem where I knew I had 6

Kite your way to Elon, get 1-2 dragon eggs in the process, do the free quests for XP and leadership, get Moro as your companion, free him in the first 50-60 battles (can be done sooner), dismiss him and get Elenhel. He should be freed by the time you reach Verona (or halfway through Verona fights).
Takes very little game time, I think it may be done in less than 2 days. If you're fast and have a map of Verona on Scarlet, it'll take even less. Debir-Scarlet-Verona-Elon-Sheterra-Debir is the loop you need "
Nice idea. Don't know why you;d need to goto to Sheterra though? Doesn't rusty have a quest that you need to go to Elon for anyway? You could pick up the princess in Verona I guess.
It won't cost you any time kiting a place if you *have* to return to it anyway, but it will cost you if you return to the same place more than you optimally have to.
So...
Kite debir..
Kite Scarlet..
Kite Rusty .. get bird and anti-drinking quest that leads to elon
Kite Verona .. get princess
Kite Elon .. Get dragon eggs - get drink for return to rusty - get undead companion
Maybe goto Dersu
kite nameless - get quest that you have to go back to scarlet for.
clear BOLO - you have to get the stone before returning to debir - shouldn't be a problem with dragons
clear debir - drop off princess - drop off stone
clear scarlet - do parrot quest - is there anyhting else you need to return here for?
clear Rusty
clear verona - get elenel
kite/ clear monterro as it doesn't cost you time to walk over the bridge?
then goblin place etc.
Yeah that could be an awesome plan, maybe not the most optimal, but the most "doable".
Also, you could start doing the chest trick in debir too for maximum chance of AK scrolls/ runes.
