My apologies to the poster of the 11:45. It’s a really long thread and I must have forgot it was there. Very sorry for the error. I just saw it was you Hanster2. Please forgive my error.
Not my longest, but my most recent since I saw this thread (it’s my current voyage). I’ve had a few just over 11hrs 30 and multiple around 11hrs 20.
You’re in a whole other league! Multiple 11:30’s is is amazing!
I think it’s really down to having a massive list of ENG immortals that blend with other skills. But then there’s RNG. I’ve had some voyages I was certain would be over 11hr 30 and they barely made 10hrs. I’ll see if I can muster another big one to share over the next couple of weeks. What’s the record? I’m thinking 12hrs is impossible at this point
That would be great! I would love to see a screenshot. The longest I have seen a screenshot of is 11:36. Others have claimed longer but without a screenshot it’s just a claim
Damn, 11:36 is longer than mine, whenever I’ve made 1130, I’ve literally scraped it. I just looked back a bit on this thread and I have noticed that lots of you guys tend to go with a different system to me. I usually only sacrifice one skill, but most of the other big scores seem to promote the gold and silver, then a random skill would be just below them, and then the other three skills would be pretty low, or what I’d consider a sacrificial skill. And my longest voyages are usually based around ENG, most of the other high scores here seem to be amongst other skills. I will experiment with the 3 high three low system, since it seems popular.
That’s what I go with. My longest voyages are always 13k+ for the gold and silver, 11k+ for a third skill (provided it can be done) and the other three fall where they may
The high third skill does add to the volatility of the voyage which is good if you want a record time. My issue is on the ones I’m going for 12 on is that I’m putting the primary and secondary at 15k/14.5k so not much control over the other stats.

Yeah I can definitely see that. If you’re going for 11 you need the gold and silver to be able to take you there (13k) or you’ll never make it. Going for 12, with how high you have to get the gold and silver you’re pretty much at the mercy of the other stats falling where they may. You could get there with a good trio though, such as a combination of SEC/DIP/COM.
My first beyond 11 hours. Unimpressed by the loot though.

Not a personal best time, but this is my best time to date on the dreaded Com/Med voyage, which honestly felt like more of an accomplishment than my 10:48 voyage.
Looks like RNG was my friend, with SEC and SCI hazards each showing up four percent more than expected (39 and 29 vs. 35 and 25) and a higher than expected success rate for both COM and MED (55.6% and 40.6% passed, versus 16.7% passed for DIP and 20.5% passed for ENG).
Not long after my 11h 9m 20s voyage, I got this one (with a Voyage Funnies inside, 8472 SEC value). 10h 58m 40s (death point), but with a chroniton record for a voyage without recharge ... 900 chronitons! My second longest voyage, but with a really nice appetizer.

You da man!
Still though. It’s the accomplishment that is the reward. Congrats!

Judging by the initial numbers, however, this was basically dumb luck.

Holy $?!& that was a great voyage!
Yeah @=j= Grey Earl 'o' That really was! I ran a voyage with pretty similar numbers and only made it to 10h. Nice job on that voyage!!
