Welcome to the Hall of Records![]
This is a collection of records for the greatest achievements that have been accomplished in L4W games. All members should feel free to update as new records exceed old ones.
To enter a new record, insert a link to where it happened and include the involved monsters, characters, players, and/or whatever is relevant to the event. Please use standard formats such as Bob (Human Fighter 9), Bloodbite the Vile (Elite Brute 11), etc. If there is any doubt whether an old record has been surpassed, please bring it up for discussion at the L4W forum before replacing the old entry.
Challenge[]
Note: Some of these records are expressed relative to level. This means a level 3 party defeating a level 8 monster is a greater challenge than a level 7 party defeating a level 11 monster (the former is party level +5, the latter party level +4). When there is a tie, consider solo monsters > elite > standard > minion. Most powerful foe defeated relative to level of party:
- Algarezh Hoofchew (Elite Controller Leader 5), by a level 1 party. The killing blow was delivered by Kilbeth Serral, played by LightRailCoyote. The rest of the party consisted of:
- Les Ghentel,Merenwen Galanodel,Vashik One Eye,Raiyek Meliam,Cross,Larinza Tsani,Balth,Kruk
Most foes defeated in one encounter relative to party size:
- 2.75-to-1:11 enemies (4 goblin warriors, 5 goblin cutters and 2 goblin sharpshooters) vs. 4 PC's. Who personally defeated most? Girth, Hrav, and Quagmire dropped 3, 1 surrendered. The MMC consisted of:

- Most traps and hazards deactivated in one encounter: (insert number of trap and hazards, PC, and player)
- Most challenging encounter won, by ratio of (XP of encounter / XP budget of party): (insert PCs, players, and other relevant information) At level 2, the Mostly Monstrous Crew (Quagmire Weaselcrust, Hrav Kortaga, Alexander Duran, and Girth Snowbird) defeated Kartharath, a young black dragon, at a ratio of 1.75.
- Most powerful PC defeated relative to level of encounter: Tander and Palindrome (both level 2) were killed by griefmotes in the Closed Eye (Part 2), DM'd by covaithe.
- Who dealt the "killing blow"? A griefmote in both cases

- ... turn: Tenchuu rolled 3 1s in a row for Jin here in Land Ho! Two Twin Strikes, using an action point for the second, and finally connecting on the 4th roll.
- ... round: Guess Tenchuu gets this one too.
- ... encounter: Oh, by the way. Tenchuu's previous attack in the same encounter also resulted in rolling a natural 1, which he elegantly posted as "1d20+8-2=1" for a grand total of 4 1s in the encounter (consecutively I might add), and this is only the 4th round of combat with all enemies still alive. I'm likely to update this one.
