well......i spent about 9 hours in a single run in the Foundry with less than 10 min. of afking. And, of course, the 3rd NPC out of 3 that you're supposed to save gets killed. Words cant describe the shock and frustration i felt at having to spend this much time on a quest. Here i'm posting some pics to show some of the highlights of the adventure.

Everyone on 60% DP.. maybe that's why it took 9 hours?

And they wouldn't have gotten err059. That only occurs if you don't move or move very little for 10 hours.

Well, the quest walkthrough on the wiki says that some prisoner's spawns will be a group of Dementia Titans that can cripple him, hence monks should bring condition removal.

Don't mean to rub it in or so, but this walkthrough was available a day ago.

I was in a group 4 days ago and it took us 8 hours and we failed, but partially because we had the wrong build. The one cause I see is having a less than optimal build, and then duking it out. DoA does that to you. You'd be short a nuker or have one more ranger than you need and you'd keep gringing, simply because, after 4 hours of play, you're not just gonna resign, you need to wipe or something. That's what happened in that 8 hour run, the bonder Err 7ed after 4 hours, and we just could not restart. We had to drag it out 4 more hours till the inevitable happened.

In your case, and with all due respect. there is hardly a need for a Bipper in that type of run (anyone who wants energy can simply E-bond the tank).

That touch skill is truly hilarious.

Along with being horribly unbalanced. Makes me glad I won't waste time bothering with DoA.

They should give that exact same touch skill to all R8 Lightbringers.

At first i thought "poor guy that was harsh!" but when i got down to that touch....it just took all the seriousness out of it and has given me temptation to attempt to get to that monster just to see the skill in use .GG Anet on creating such a funny skill

9 hours for only 10k exp in return = waste of time... yes there might be a change of getting gems items and so on... i can spend 9 hours in UW and i 100% get more gold (ectos) compare then your 9 hours... plus you need at least 25 of each stone for those weapon you dont even know what it looks... joke of the year.
