ZA timed run?

[Smitus]

Over the past few days, I've tried the ZA timed run 3 times with little luck.
While it was a different group every time (All 5/5 guild group- We're 3/13) I was still able to progress further every time.
My first two attempts at it, we got 2 chests while having enough time for a 3rd, but wiping on the trash in between.
My latest attempt, we got 3 chests but with only 2 minutes remaining afterward, giving us no real shot at the 4th chest.
My question is, for those of you that have attempted it, do you think the current time given is enough?
Or should the time be increased by some small about.

[Parshicurita]

Yes it can be done, missed mine by like 40 seconds or something yesterday, we had someone dc, and we failed a bit on scout-zone.
It is strict, but with practice people will start getting it frequently in no time.

Upgraded slightly; for now. 4.2 they should nerf it back.

[herpecin]

you can cut a good deal of time by skipping trash and doing the trash properly(interupting heals, correct kill order, etc).

is it hard? yes. is that the idea? yes.

There's already people selling mount runs on my realm, so yeah, I don't think it needs any change.

[Deleted]

Yeah imo it's tuned perfectly. It's intense, with little room for feckups or idle time at any point. You have to know what you are planning to do before you start, and really go for it once you start the clock. Don't be afraid to flask / chain pot / food or w/e if you need to. Ofc with better gear / more dps this isn't needed, but it's meant to be challenging, but as it's not on any raid cd you have plenty of time / chances to perfect your strategy.

[Growlzor]

It will get easier with practice and gear in general,but it's totally doable.
With a solid guild setup I finished it today with like 5 mins left on the timer,and we weren't even rushing that much.
Just keep moving and skip everything that can be skipped.

I did a guild run and we were 30 sec off, we wiped 2 times so if we removed those wipes i think we would have easily gotten the mount.

[Mefistophelis]

I'm a noob so please explain to me in plain english . Where are those chests and how do I get them ? (I saved 2 prisoners from being sacrificed, did I just throw away the loot ?)

[M4d2m0A]

Did 2 runs last night, only use CC on the 4 pull before bear boss and 4 pull before firehawk boss. Skip the 2 big mobs in front of Hex-lord's room, and use water walking to skip the first crocodile pack, don't wait until all the tigers are dead, pull the next group when there's only 2-3 left. You need to have pretty good dps and your healer needs to conserve mana and your dps needs to not stand in earthquakes and dispell/spellsteal the fire mages buff.

It's pretty tight but it's definately doable.

They should leave it as it is its only been 2 days since patch has been out if its too easy everyone will have it so plz no complains

[Dannz]

it feels like it should be, i haven't completed a successfull run yet, only done 3 attempts, but it doesn't seem that hard tbh, every fail we did was a resault to ninja pulling of extra trash, and/or ninja pull of trash without aoe threat avalible

[llcoolbean]

save yourself alot of time and pick up the bonus chests after the run, rolling for them during the run wastes alot of time

Everyone will have it in a couple of weeks, if not blizz would have to fight massive amounts of casual/bads tears.

Why would they remove it? Especially since they went through so much trouble adding it back in.

[Truantxoxo]

My guild <Sleeping Forest> on Thaurissan US managed to get four of them in a row yesterday.
We are only 1/13 and in no way a hardcore guild. We all had mostly 359 gear.
This timer was at between 1-2 minutes left on our attempts.

i agree they wouldnt remove something they're bringing back, atleast not anytime soon
