Finishing the game with 0 deaths

Hi everyone =) After the third attempt, I was finally able to do it. The original idea came from that thread, where I was setting up a deaths farming record, and once a player named Thy Guardian has reached one million of deaths, I decided to establish a new record that would be the opposite to this. The first two times I have failed on a Droknar's run, though I've beaten all of the missions up to Aurora Glade with two neverdying characters, I was desperate to finish the game quickly so I tried to sneak unkilled on a Droknar's run. Ironically, the Log Out button didn't help me twice to avoid a double patrol near Res shine upon entering Dreadnought's Drift, and since both of my characters were around level 10, it was a matter of two seconds to get them killed. So after these two attempts, I began to think that the ascension is the only way to do it and created a Warrior/Monk instead of my Mesmer/Monk character. Additionally, I had a guildmate in SoT who said that he'll buy me 15k armor if I'll actually finish the game with 0 deaths, yet according to him, it was impossible. I don't know what lead him to that conclusion, but it definitely seemed possible to me, as playing Guild Wars for 2,5 years can give you enough inspiration to achieve things that look very difficult on the first sight =) Beating the Mirror wasn't a problem as I simply used Riposte and Deadly Riposte skills against him. The Henchies have also been very helpful and proven themselves to be wholesome allies when I was playing alone. Upon reaching the desert, I've also been helped by some folks from Russian Invasion guild, so I'd like to thank them all here. The credit goes to: Joe Free Wind [RusI], Alien Rus W [RusI], Sloner Immortal [RusI], Amun Khealer [RusI], Fowler Protogonist [HeaD] and Dunkan Aidaho [RusI]. Also I'd like to thank S K A P S T E R [SoT] & Great Skeeve [SoT] from Soldiers of Thunderstorm, my guild. In addition to the screenshots attached, I've also recorded a video of our 0 deaths celebration that took place in Hell's Precipice Int D1.

The movie is located here, have fun watching it:

Meh, lvl19 in Abbadon's Mouth. You were obviously run through the game. Not exactly impressive.

Very impressive. But do you fear that in Hell Mission, if a lag happened, you would die first time and must do all again from pre searing ?

Actually it was happening, 2 times on a Droknar's run and I also had that "you've been dropped due to a lag" error on the final mission. The second attempt to finish it was all right though =)

Nice work, and Glacius, he had to kill at least the lich to beat the game, if nothing else, he did that

It would have been more of an achievement if he wasn't run through everything. Only 43 hours of play time and a few noob quests still not done?

Big deal. Anyone can not die when they just sit at the very beginning.
