Hades EX Timer Needs an Extension

I don't know who decided 1 hour was long enough, especially for a fight with no checkpoints, but I really hope they decide to extend the timer.

Considering the amount of spots that need assigning and the short amount of dungeon time (It takes ~3-5 mins per group, maybe more, to assign spots) , as well as the fact that a vast majority of parties will disband after leaving the first instance, it makes progging with pug groups harder than it should be.

All ex trials are 60 minutes. Raids are usually 90 (with a few final raids of the tier being 120) alliance raids are 120

EX trials have always been 60 minutes.

If your group showed little enough promise that PUG people want to leave after one timer (which is a player problem, not a SE problem... it's also why people prefer to use dedicated raid groups for the harder content), why would you want to try to rope them in for even longer? Seems to me that if people felt like they'd be able to clear the fight with just a bit more time in a given group, they'd probably stick around for a second timer if they could, no?

I mean, personally, I'd just be thankful to have a PUG that didn't have people leave after the first wipe.

Ah, I thought it was longer but maybe I'm misremembering.

It's not a good sign when you got people asking for timer extensions..

I mean, the fight is long enough to justify 2 tokens per run. So why not 90 min timer?

Didn't had too much issues with our group.
We even had to pug the OT and explain some stuff.

Took us around 3 hours to get the first kill (we went in blind).
And since first kill we've kept killing him without wipes for 5 times in total now. Fastest go was around 11 mins.


For a full PF group without voice chat, there's chat macros to assign possitions.
