Aigik Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Hah, we just did the false emperor and it took us 3 hours somehow. (we died a lot). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaesebreze Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 The problem is that even with no wipes the shortest flashpoints takes 40 minutes... Add in wipes, the longer flashpoints, etc., they all take way to long to complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodymoon Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Black Talon only need 15-20 Minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oogadishou Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 No longer than instances in an average MMO. Before Dungeon Finder and shortly after Cataclysm was released (I dunno if people are outgearing and breezing through them at this point, no longer play) dungeons and heroics in WoW took several hours to complete much of the time.

e_nk_ay Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 In speaking from personal experience (and this is with pugs, all hardmodes) Black Talon - 35 minutesBoarding Party - 40 minutes (with wipes on last boss)Foundry - 30 minutes (don't clear to final boss because he's bugged)False Emperor - 1 hour Haven't done hardmodes for the others. Not sure what you were expecting? Even if they took over an hour, that's par for course for an MMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toegrinder Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 In cata WoW dungeons werent long lol, if you took ages to do them you just failed at the game, when the game got easier(WOTLK), although the subs kept increasing, they increased at a much much slower rate.

Graburr Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 (edited) apparently you've never done BRD and people say vanilla had no hard modes... although the subs kept increasing, they increased at a much much slower rate. till they point they didn't increase anymore, and because that cata happened...

Haratoo Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Apperantly no one has ever done wailing caverns in vanilla (sticking to the wow comparison) Lololol....my first run 6 years ago took 2 hours....it was EPIC!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark_wolf Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Lololol....my first run 6 years ago took 2 hours....it was EPIC!!! Mine too and it was fun. However, I wouldn't want every dungeon to take that long. I don't think TOR's are too long though, in fact I would be cool if they added a few longer ones eventually.

AshramDarkstar Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Apperantly no one has ever done wailing caverns in vanilla (sticking to the wow comparison) The only thing more time consuming and annoying to navigate thru I can think of back then was BRD...

AceM Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Black Talon only need 15-20 Minutes Yeah right.. maybe if you don't listen to any of the conversations and you have a team of high level people that know exactly what they are doing. It took me around 2 hours the first time to do Black Talon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strelsky Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I can safely say that I'd prefer to spend an hour or two in one longer instance than spend the same time repeating several instances over and over... and over... again... Given there's a limited number of instances, I'd prefer to do a different one every day as opposed to having short instances, that are all doable every day resulting in me getting nightmares after a few days of farming them all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostkitty Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Cata's flaw is the dungeons where to short... if you think they are long or these dungeons are Long then you got problems with the ppl u run with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graburr Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 (edited) I don't think TOR's are too long though, in fact I would be cool if they added a few longer ones eventually. I like the fact that you can make it as long as you want. athiss, cademimu, taral V all have groups that can be avoided, and the use of force push etc. makes things even shorter. which reminds me of the group that wanted to clear taral V completely ....

It took me around 2 hours the first time to do Black Talon Of course we do not listen to conversations anymore - there are no new coversations, we already heard the conversations the first time we went in there. The bosses in Black Talon are laughable - our healer does not need to heal in any boss fight. This FP is REALLY easy and really fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
