Aurum Vale needs to have NO SYNC!

Suffer!

...seriously, I beat this thing my first run through with a PUG. Just learn when to eat the fruit and where to stand and you're golden (or not golden, as it where). Google a video if you need to see what to do. Explain it to whatever people that are in your group if they've never done it. As long as you explain in clearly and in a non-condescending manner, and the other people are not secretly cabbages, it should be only a little tough. If you still can't beat it and everyone's geared properly (which shouldn't be a problem), and you realize that the gold liquid is not for bathing...well...I don't know what to tell you. Play better? That's not meant to be condescending, I just don't know what else to suggest, it -really- isn't that bad.

not syncing on AV would kill its challenge.

Unless, of course, it was still the end-game dungeon it was in 1.x with the changes in ARR - But why would we want End-game content? >.> Cutter's and Aurum should have stayed end-game.

I hate the sync in general for removing access to our abilities. They should just scale down the numbers rather than taking core spells away from us. It's extremely frustrating and makes syncing down to help a friend in a lower level dungeon really boring. >_<

Cutter's and Aurum should have stayed end-game.

But then we'd have even fewer dungeons to run whilst leveling, so no to that. But I wouldn't mind hard mode versions of Cutters Cry, Qarn, and Aurum. Toss in Stone Vigil while we're at it.

I just can't see chain-pulling AV nearly as effectively as WP or AK. The ranged flowers, the eggs, the frogs.

Those ranged flowers are the most annoying mobs while leveling, most mages never figure out to sleep them if for some reason the tank can't get it in the pack.

inb4 2.1 includes hard mode version of two 2.0 dungeons (and those 2dungeons are those who were endgame in 1.2?)
