    Those timers are ridiculous. We ran desmael, gOt the chests, got to batraal with 12min left.
    Really? I was like wtf. In the end, we couldn't make it through with the time left and wiped at batraal. Not fun. Extend or take these stupid timers out. Doesn't make sense. It was my first time there and I was like running all over the place, not enjoying the dungeon because of the stupid timer. Oh, of course no cutscenes watched because the party was half way the dungeon by the time the cutscenes end.
    So, let me recap:

    1st time in the dungeon EVER: check
    Watching cutscenes: check
    tried for speed run anyway: check
    Expected to win and get a speed run: Uhh what?

    No wonder everyone is having troubles. are you all attempting the speed run without learning the dungeon first? And for the love of god you shouldn't expect to even WIN the dungeon on your first try. Get 2, then 3, then maybe 4 chests, and then when you have it down pact THEN get your speed run.

    /facepalm.

    Only two people were new to the dungeon. Not to the game. We all know how to play. At the boss, shit happens. My point being is that those timers make no sense. Period. Takes the fun out of it completely. It's not like no on can enter the dungeon if a group is already inside until they leave. Makes nO sense to have them.

    Watching the cutscenes shouldn't penalize you, neither grabbing the chests. Why should you be forced tO choose between running tO the bosses or getting the chests? Makes no sense

    No, there is a limit on the number of parties than can be in the instance at one time.
    actually this is probably the reason why dungeons are timed.
