The mystery of how Elon Musk has so much time to become a world-ranked Diablo 4 player continues, and despite his recent appointment to run the Department of Government Efficiency by Donald Trump, he is demonstrating that efficiency in the form of speed clearing Pit 150 in Diablo 4. It appears he also may have just set a world record, becoming the #1 player in the game. Seriously.

I would find this hard to believe had he not posted his sub-2:00 run on Twitter. When he finishes, there is 13:04 left on the clock, and subtracting that from the 15:00 start time, that’s a 1:56 run. That would put him three seconds below current record holder Resistance at 1:59, and those two are the only (tracked) players in the world to get under two minutes for this run.

I remain somewhat baffled as to how this is happening. Yes, Elon is a known Diablo grinder, but to this level? Not only how does he have time, but just…how is he doing it? He has essentially the same Quill Volley Spirtborn build everyone else is using, but does he just have different tactics? Is his gear that much more perfect? Is he somehow getting lucky with enemy behavior?
