If this were a true " skill " challenge, then it could potentially be done over the course of 3 hours but as long as you dodge shit/interupt shit/cc shit you would eventually win. The imp/shield soft enrage type mechanic makes it a gear check.
There is some skill required in terms of knowing when to let the slow puddle imp explode or to kill it based on situation. There is some mechanical skill required to dodge boulders and knowing you need to save Dragon's Breath as an interupt on the healing imps. But, even with doing that correctly, if you don't kil lthe shield before the umbral immunity imps spawn, you're basically fucked because now timings are off and you have combination of imp waves that are nearly impossible to recover from.
