I love the new UW and it is pretty challenging and fun, but what really pisses me off is to get all the way to the end, and have to play beat the clock to get my items. I know you are supposed to save one of the patrols for last, but more often than not, they usually aggro into us anyways.

Today was the most annoying example of the beat the clock. I was the MM and got killed right as the last boss died. Of course once my team mates realised it they tried to rez me, but no, i coudn't reach my drops in time. Please! PLEASE! Could it be made like any other mission where you can get your drops after completing it?

PULL, PULL, PULL! And don't get suckered into being pulled by them! That's the key. If you've got them out of the middle, and they drift back - don't go with them, that's what they want! Something I try to do as a tank is get behind the closest one so he can't drift back to the middle (not something for the faint of heart to try

). Another strategy that works is for the tanks (if you've got them and they're using an elemental damage weapon) is to engage them when pulled and take a step back towards the stairs every few seconds. Using these strategies has resulted in my groups NEVER aggroing the last patrol.

If farming was any easier than it already is, the value of everything in the game would drop.
It is things that make farming tricky that keep the Guild Wars economy alive.
