    What is your favorite run?

    Part feedback, part curiosity I'm wondering what is your single most favorite dungeon/raid/trial run in the game.

    I would honestly say Labyrinth of the Ancients. I felt the design was unique in both mechanics and entertainment. It was less about zerg boss > run > zerg boss > run and more puzzle type fights at every leg.

    So what is yours?

    You might find some of what you're looking for in this thread.

    My favorite is the original Pharos, it had some really clever boss mechanics, some really clever trash mechanics, genuine challenge (at least, for awhile), beautiful music, and a truly epic setting that feels unique compared to so many fantasy dungeons.

    Amdapor Keep. That original Demon Wall fight was everything to me. So hectic, yet so much fun.

    I loved World of Darkness, it was cool how the music would get muffled when you were in the Cerberus's belly

    I love a lot of them (including LotA like the OP), but my absolute favorite is Titan EX. It was difficult, but designed brilliantly to teach you the fight in manageable stages that built on one another, such that everything you learned in the previous stage helped you in the next, more complex one. The rewards for the fight were meaningful with both an additional set of end-game class accessories and weapons (through Primal Focus), which made learning and clearing the fight incredibly rewarding.

    EX Primals these days just don't have the right sort of reward ratio, in addition to generally being a bit simpler, which makes them nowhere near as satisfying to me.

    SV HM, specifically the last boss.

    I love the the fact that the boss is unpredictable and the AoEs aren't telegraphed. I like to go free-for-all in my parties and stop healing to see who makes it out alive. :^)

    Tam Tara HM. I love how the whole dungeon ties in so well with the story of the place.

    I would have to say AK HM. I love the atmosphere, the winks and nods to classic fairytales/nightmares. The first two bosses, I thought, were super uniquely designed, and I love the room with the walls closing in. I remember for the first time in the game feeling like "Oh no we might die! ...Oh we can totall- oh crap another wave, we're gonna die." Hahaha. Plus the final boss' laugh creeps me out /still/ so I count that as a good thing.

    Favorite Dungeon: Tam Tara Hard mode. Edda! </3
    Favorite Trial: A hard one, but probably Leviathan extreme. Shame no one does it at-item level anymore.
    Favorite Raid: Final Coil, specifically turn 13. No contest, this fight is my favorite fight of any MMO that has ever been made.
