Gratz to you, you must have very special build to be able to do that,

P.S: How long does it take you to do it with 7-8 peeps?

Thx LiamB, it usually takes about two and a half hours for a run.

That's too much time to spend on PvE, please take a break.

Well, the main reason we PvE is to make our PvE characters PvP ready. Its worth it for various advantages IMHO.

I would be alot more inclined to believe this if the classes, and bottom of party window wasnt intentionally cropped off. There is usually a reason people do that...

Also, try to keep in mind that the Deep is not that hard at all if you can put together a team of players that all know thier jobs and work well together, its just that half the bloody battle is finding those kind of in teams.

yea i find 12 people isnt needed either. i've done it with 9 and took like 3 hours. Just make sure everyone knows their jobs and listens to the leader correctly and take your time.

umm congrats?? but it's not that big of an accomplishment, most groups i've been in start off as 12 and end up at 9 after people err 7, get glitched into the map or rage quit. but, some of us prefer PvE to PvP and for us PvE isn't a joke, it's fun there's other areas that are way more profitable then the elite missions to solo farm and team farm.

Why waste all the extra time it takes 7-8 man to do it?

8-man is very much possible, I certainly believe those screens; I'm simply not dedicated enough to spend the extra time in there.

Also: Congrats.

As a note, our fastest was 1hr 41minutes. You don't need to believe that, either. We PvE for the comradeship and to get away from the pressure that a lot of the facets of PvP require, and to prepare PvE characters for PvP.

Time spent playing with the same people often helps teams work better together overall, also.

The fun in PvE comes with hanging out with some friends and getting some cool drops. The only reason *I* do it is to get cool stuff for my PvP characters because Guild Wars requires you to do that to be maximumly effective. I can spare 1 and a half hours to get a drop worth 100K + some ectos.

Yeah, we totally photoshopped it. Except not. You're welcome to come with us sometime.

Oh fine. I'll reveal our secret. We used the infinite health code.

It's up, left, left, down, right, punch, start.

eh, i do a few of these runs with my guildies, its good on the money and when we do the 9 man runs it means that theres less people to pug. more of a guild group. as nikki said she does it for pvp stuff (though she goes a little crazy on the dyes)
these pictures are real, we really do 7-9 man runs and we arent pve noobs, we just do pve for the fun of it and money, something to do to relax

It isn't the deep that is frustrating or hard, it's the PUGs. If it were practical to get an all guild group, it would be a breeze.


Furthermore it is normally finished with 8 people anyway >>

yes dc and things make it finish with less then you start with but we start with 8 intentionally and finish with 8.
