Dungeon Hub Race

The Dungeon Hub Races are three races that take place in the Dungeon Hub, and all are started at Guildford. The three races are the Crystal Core Race, the Giant Mushroom Race, and the Precursor Ruins Race. Each race has 4 settings, each with their own restrictions. There is also the option to enable Runback, which turns the endpoint into a checkpoint and requires the player to go back to the start in order to finish the race.

The coordinates of the starting point and the three destinations are as follows:

Starting Point:

Crystal Core:

Giant Mushrooms:

Precursor Ruins:

Race Settings
Anything: Abilities, Ender Pearls and Grappling Hooks are allowed.

No Pearls: Ender Pearls are disabled. Abilities and Grappling Hooks are allowed.

No Abilities: Abilities and Ender Pearls are disabled. Grappling Hooks are allowed.

Nothing at all: Abilities, Ender Pearls and Grappling Hooks are disabled. Walk speed is capped at 130%.

For each race setting, there are 4 available time trials (and another 4 when Runback is enabled). These times vary for each race.

Rewards
Completing each time trial rewards the player with Wither Essence unless they qualify for a Talisman. Level 1 gives 3, level 2 gives 4, level 3 gives 5 and level 4 gives 6. In total (1 way & runback), you can get up to 432 wither essences just by racing. (18 wither essence per setting, 4 settings per race, 3 races and plus runback. So 18 x 4 x 3 x 2 = 432)

The reward for completing 4/4 for the same race on a particular setting is the Cat Talisman.

Completing 4/4 for another race rewards the player with the Cat Talisman's upgraded form, the Lynx Talisman.

Completing 4/4 for a third race will reward the player with the Lynx Talisman's upgraded form, the Cheetah Talisman.

Tips and Strategies
When people reach the end of an one way it teleports them back, allowing for a glitch to happen with the Anything mode. Just right before a player finish a race they can throw a ender pearl up, they quickly finish the race then start another race. The ender pearl teleports them to the end pad, allowing for the player to finish the race in mere seconds.

For "Nothing at all" races, despite the walking speed being limited to 130%, the jump height is not affected. This means we can do these race with jump boost given by Rabbit Potion effect. This comes useful when coming across with ladders and vines (e.g. Climbing back up the cliff when returning to the start point for Precursor Ruins race), that can be skipped by boosted jumps.

Race Times
Race times in seconds needed for each goal in the exact order in which they show up in the Quest menu.
