    Generally when the term elitist is used in is context it means "being awesome to a fault." There's a difference between someone who is awesome but is humble and one who is awesome and feels the need to let everyone else know how awesome he is. For better examples than you can find in MMOs, please see "DotA" or "Dota 2" or "Heroes of Newerth" or to a lesser extent 'League of Legends."

    I would agree though, that the distinction your hubby uses makes it a lot more clear. ;p

    They have a few spots in there vid that can be improved upon for sure. Looked at times like the bard was being extra careful in case a few meteors dropped.

    I think someone could break under 8 min, maybe even under 7.

    we were on track for a 7:30 kill several times, only to get screwed over by RNG. taking way too long to teleport up top after 20% (like in our latest video at 0.1%, screwing us out of a nearly a minute), taking way too long to teleport back up at 45%, summoning 10 meteors the second we bring him under 40% after he comes back down, etc.

    7 minutes is basically the floor. you'd need perfect RNG, which means no teleporting around at all (as each time he does it, it adds another ~6 seconds to your kill), going up immediately for first megaflare the second he goes under 20% health, going up immediately at 45% health, and not beginning 10 meteors phase until under 20%

    it's just a brick wall of RNG and you need absolutely everything to go perfectly in your favor on top of perfect execution on your own part. it's possible but would take a silly amount of grind to finally get it.

    Yeah I would agree.

    You could swap a war for the pally but then you cant block his buff/debuff. You could swap that lone whm for another brd/drg but you really gotta get lucky ><

    SE really should of put in a achievement for a sub 10 min kill. I bet they never figured anyone would kill it so fast.
