Hour and a half with Ursan.
Anywhere between two to two and a half hours with a normal group.

Assuming consumables of course.

1-1.5h sounds pretty unrealistic for me, but I have really to try it in a "pro" Ursan Team to confirm it tho!

There are 4 maps before going to Mallyx. So, we consider doing all connected. Then the time w8ing for the mobs to approach, spawn, agro etc is about 20-30 min only this. Killing is about 50-60 min, including runing to them, shortcuts, etc. Then killing all Mallyx waves is about 20-30 min so easily you reach about 2-2.5 hours.

So, now considering ALL really are perfect (which means no bad aggro, no overwealming mobs, no deaths, perfectly clear routes and syncro, no pressing by mistake to exit ursan) then, maybe 1-1.5 will do it, but surely not with a PUG team.

The 6h with the heroes sounds about right, although I tried it and I could not pass the room three (Foundry) so far. I need a few more trials to do it!

Most of the ursan groups (assuming no idiot goes afk or whatever) did it in about 2.5 hours. A bit less, if there were consumables but that's not always a sure thing.

That's been my experience. A completely full run, including Mallyx, with an average team, takes somewhere between 2.5 and 3 hours.

Don't listen to Racthoh on time estimates. Racthoh's too leet to get normal times.

the only time it was ever possible to do it witha a balanced team was before they removed the glitch, since then its only been done like 4 times witha a balanced team. HM usually takes around 3-4 hours with ub and with balanced around 10 for the full run.

Are you implying that all balanced teams shouldn't be composed of 1 obsflesh tank, 5 E/me nukers, and 2 monks? lolz, lern2play /jk

Did you ever finish that 4 area HM DoA run you posted about Racthoh?

Finding 7 other players with maxed PvE ranks who aren't concerned about the price of Armbraces is a little hard.

I would love to help you with my warrior but I haven't maxed any of the EotN titles. I also live in Australia so the timeslot differences suck

DoA is very dependant on Cons, so if one person decides to be a cheap ass bitch and save his set, it's a bit longer.

Takes about 2.5-3 hours.

Take me along if I'm not already PvEing! Gold means nothing to me anymore, so I'll just hop along for the ride :P
