I can answer this question. Last week, I got SMA in Expert. We did your standard greeting, then the DRK charged on ahead, pulling until he couldn't any longer. I kept him alive with literally only Regen and Divine Benison; his CD usgae was sublime. Meanwhile, the DPS were pulling 6,000 apiece, if not higher depending who got their abilities off first. We blitzed the entire dungeon down in roughly 10 minutes or thereabouts. Fastest I have probably completed a dungeon is a 7-8 minute Xelphatol back in Heavensward. It's amazing how quickly things fall over when people know what they're doing. Meanwhile, I have spent over 15 minutes in Guardian Normal—which is five minutes longer than his Savage enrage. Now we should expect that level of play with any regularity, but if people put in even half as much effort, we'd all benefit.
