The Stage 6 and on time limits begin as soon as the cut scenes start. Results in giving group generally about 90 seconds to finish the stages. Which is absolutely rediculous.

    Nice to see that this Alert is still Horrible Designed! :rolleyes:

    So... Do they still think that the Timer works as Intented and that 1 Minutes and 30 Seconds are enought to defeat Two Bosses with DEFIANCE as passive? :mad:

    Ofcourse it's enough. Since it can be done. And you're left few seconds to spare for the celebration.
    And the End Reward of About 4Globals is enough to drive you to do it over and over again.

    I ran this consecutively yesterday with a friend by pugging the queue. Every time, someone drops immediately after i load in or after seeing my support role and compassion form. Yet somehow, we complete the whole thing on 4 man teams which includes the likes of ATs including a Glacier tank.

    The phobia is strong with this one.

    They still haven't fixed this?
    Want to get to know me a bit better, Click me and take a read of My Dragon Profile Page, it's a bit dated but still relevant.

    I take this quote from a review that I agree with.

    "customisation is so linear; everyone is after the optimal dps:survivability ratio with 0 reliance on other players = autonomous gameplay... Players don't need each other anymore... which in my opinion is a bad thing."

    The time was extended to include the length of the cut scene to provide enough time to complete it.

    We have this thread pop up every time Forum cycles back into the queue.

    That DOES say something about the Design of the alert, Which is BAD, Rushed and Horrible Executed


    the Timer Should have been 5-8 Minutes, this Alert PUNISH every NON-DPS character, (ATs, Healers, Tanks e.t.c)
    We are dealing with 2 Bosses who use DEFIANCE

    Or perhaps it says more about the players who expect to walk through every challenge with a 100% success rate.

    You know that you only have to get to round 5 in order to get credit for the alert and the rest is essentially "extra credit", right?

    Most "other" issues have already been brought up.

    My beef is the "set everyone to level 30" again. Sheesh.

    I thought all of the Alerts of this nature were supposed to bump you UP to 40. Especially since we all know that dropping a 40 to 30 reduces your DPS greater than it should. And the final round is purely for DPS.

    Yea. And going for the "extra credit", you get like, what? 2 Gs more.....
    But then again, i got 'Fire Fighter' title on every character i've played the Forum Malvanum.
    Not a single costume pieces, but that's not the point of the Alert.

    And yes. The "set everyone to level 30"...

    No one is arguing that. =)

    Considering the reward "Glory Unending" is a Smash worth of money, I'd say let people steamroll it. Otherwise make the reward higher to compensate the difficulty (DPS wall).

    One or the other.


    ...And I still haven't seen a drop happen on anything other than the final round.

    Oh Well, the Time has come to say Goodbye to this Annoying Alert and say HELLO to the Fatal Error: Cyber Alert which is one of my favorites so far :biggrin:

    I am sure the people who can't play his Simon-Says Puzzles will complain, but at least Cybermind is FAIR challenge where you just needs puzzle skills and enviroment Interaction to pass
