Please show an video of you doing them all in 35, with an base build so no steak or warder or dk pull to character.

They do say you can do it as a team. Get 4 friends, grab the quest then each of you run to a different torch. EASY...

Loads of responses..so thank you…But
I was only wondering if the timer was resetting for everyone else?

I paid particular attention to this when I did the quest today. Each time I clicked on the 2nd and 3rd brazier the silly lady said begin, and the displayed timer reset to 55.

It is clear that the timer that is actually used to award/deny the achievement is not resetting though. I have had 2 successes, and 3 failed attempts due to getting lost or moving away from the braziers too quickly, just as I would have expected.

Sorc boundless storm or rapids and pop a potion. Also hatve to it in a good sequence.

But it was Designed as group activity so why suffer?

Completely agree with Taesear and others that have mentioned it--it seems like the main point to remember is to have Major Expedition + Sprint makes good time (Minor expedition might also work).
Also, be sure to check your inventory, as the gift boxes can drop Roguish Escape Draughts (which restore stamina and give major expedition).

How's that I don't even count, or sometimes I even get the route confused and would always get the achievements unlocked on all of my toons (even those below 15 - dunmer mag dk)?
Next time I will.......walk and we'll see. haha

Dracofyre

if you got 20 lvl orc, you can do dark brotherhood kill task, you get speed buff potions

Cazzy

Yeah the timer does reset. Doesn't unlock the achievement, but does reset, yeah

This is the character I completed the achievement on.

She's a Mag build, with no attribute points in Stam. After I fed her on Lava Foot Stomp soup her stats looked like this.

The only speed buff I used was Rapids - as a loyal Altmer she has already done her Alliance War basic training.

I didn't use a stam replenishing potion on her during the race. I just didn't think of it til afterwards.

I play the game 100% solo, so no group assist.

Will try later today. Also check the achievements on main who did all.
And the quest itself is trivial easy, failed first time as I got lost

re: getting lost - I would certainly advise if doing it solo to not click any of the braziers until you have run around where the quest markers are for them a few times if necessary, so you don't find yourself in an "argh, where do I go now" situation with the timer ticking down

I just had to take it again, I did not know they was all up on top, the first time I managed to ride up there, probably an bug because of too many players.
And I got the achievement even if using far more than 35 seconds total, so it looks bugged.

It can be solo'd. I equipped Rapid Maneuvers, planned my path before started, and got it done in one shot. Another approach is to just ask in chat for help. On one character I got two other people into a group and got it done in about 15 seconds.

@zaria

It did take me a few attempts last year to finally get this one.

The order you go in helps, IIRC, you want to start on the first one near the event giver, which would be behind you as your facing him. then move clockwise. I don't think I could ever do it Counterclockwise.

Also, a Speed Boost Potion makes this event super easy to complete. Don't even need a high end one. If you have Rapid Manevours, you can use that instead of the potion. Never tried to stack them, but never needed to. Anyway, wait until you get to the first brazier, apply the speed boost, activate the first brazier and then sprint.

Did it counter clock, started with the one at skyshard, then the one you passed and the two northern one. Should not matter as you has to pass them all in an line.

And 35 seconds give you 11.3 between them, lighting them take multiple seconds unless you can animation cancel. Rapid Manevours take all stamina from an magic build so you can not sprint, you can not ride up there.
Now you can have a friend give RM and resources but that is kind of overkill for an causal quest.

I zig zag from the sky shard: SE, SW, NE, NW. I have to double back slightly after the brazier closest to the quest giver, but I stay up on the walkways and I don't lose speed on the stairs.

On my stamblade I hit rapids then sprint between the braziers, popping a trash stamina potion halfway through.
