A level 1 noklateo rush?

Played a game as revenant the other night. Wylder and Raider teammates. Church start, so no early level. They rush Noklateo after landing and I think to myself this run is gone and these dudes are....hopeless.

We get in the City, and hanging Astel snipes the raider. I stand there for a moment, weighing whether to save him or to be a lame and leave. After the volley, we get him up, they run on, I follow. Right side path. I'm following these two blindly. Eventually they find a chest I didnt know existed, dropping some good loot (Well, for them, I got a big axe with less likely to be targetted, decent but never getting swung).

OK, so maybe they do know what they're doing. We rushed for an early power spike, but levels are hurting. They continue on, I follow.

You know that saying, if your friends jump off a bridge, would you follow? Turns out I would. They jump off a ledge, I follow thinking we are going deeper. While I am still mid-air, they die and once I once again get that sinking feeling that the run is doomed; I also die. Now, I think these guys are just trolling. We leave our level and runes in Noklateo and the rest of day 1 is some overworld leveling, I think we finished day 1 fairly decently even with the noklateo visit and death, but I am hurting with items - no incants, nada, and that axe is just letting me be invisible while I tickle enemies.

Day 2 wylder drops me a goated seal and I loot a second with frenzy flame; things are looking up, and after that drop I am once again fully behind Wylder; ya'll feed me discus of light and I am yours, regardless of the shitstorm preceeding. We finish noklateo, hit 15, and absolutely destroyed Libra. Dropped the raider the axe I looted from that first chest, he traded me some holy damage boost, and between the three of us melted the goatman.

Raider, Wylder, level 1 nokaleo? What the fuck, ya'll insane, would run again.
