    As soon as you do the ogre once or twice, you should see how feasible it is to do the ogre as all melee DD. And I can confirm (without pics sadly) that Inferno drop can be interrupted. Just saw it happen not minutes ago

    Oh I've seen it a couple of times on ogre, but I wasn't able to replicate it.

    Just try out different things and it will become extremely obvious.
    And that's where the problem is. My LS suggested to go rank ARC up. And they don't seem interested in trying hard mode for us melee DD's benefit. This is what most of us are experiencing right now and I can't really blame them for doing it the most efficient way. I blame SE for their lack of vision.

    Oh, they have vision. Sometimes I just wonder wth it is they see, though. . .

    I can't see it taking more than 1 run to figure it out. Use an ability as he's readying Inferno Drop, if it interrupts it you got it, if not try something else. It doesn't require any "special" skill and you'll likely shoot yourself in the foot for not realizing it before.

    I'll be sure to try that next time every ARC and mage in my LS quits.

    ive been thinking about suggesting our DDs bring throwing weapons for the ogre.
    Same deal, they will want the real ranged DDs, not the makeshifts.

    FYI, ARC can stun it too. So even if you're doing a cheese run, AKA: ARC party, you can still do some trial and error.
