My initial argument was that they shouldn't exist at all and that the walls should disappear entirely, which I stand behind. But, if there are going to be walls, the trash standing in front of them should be a bit more difficult than normal trash. This is literally the case for some other walls, the deathdancers or w/e in the very same dungeon, the head + hand(s) in Qarn, the dragons with the AOE in Snowcloak. But here, at the entrance to the Kraken's lair, are two crew members who apparently had a bit too much to drink and can't be bothered to do anything worthwhile to safeguard the entrance to the final boss area. Maybe that's only strange to me and that inconsistency is fine with everyone else, but I personally liked the other trash mobs and felt they gave the walls a purpose. They weren't tough, but they at least felt like they belonged there.

Anyway, I can see you're not going to be swayed from your stance, so I'll let you get the last word in. Feel free to say whatever makes you feel better about yourself. o/
