I think I was that AST, or I was playing on my AST and had a run just like that. OP name does look familiar though.

Honestly, PoTD went from a dungeon crawl to a speed run. With people at different phases (some want chests for weapon/armor others just want to get through fast to get the potshards) and different approaches, PoTD is really a mixed bag. Sometimes my best groups are 4 DD's, other times it is a one room wipe with a normal party composition. Either way, it is more exciting than facerolling an expert roulette.
