How to reset maelstrom arena instantly?

Hello,

I am trying to achieve "Flawless conqueror" title. This is insanely hard and I am near to moral breakdown.

What adds to frustration is that after yet another death I abandon the quest. And they just don`t give me the new quest. As far as I understand I must abandon quest and then leave arena for unknown amount of time (something about 10 minutes).

My question is - Is it possible to reset maelstrom arena instantly like other quests in the game?

Thank you
Flawless Conquer

    1) I die on vet arena
    2) I drop quest
    3) I walk out of arena (walk in portal red portal to wrothgar)
    4) I set difficulty to normal
    5) I walk in red portal to arena
    6) I walk out of arena (walk in portal red portal to wrothgar)
    7) set difficulty to veteran
    8) I walk in arena

    and it does not work, NPC does not give me quest.

    It does take about 5 mins or so. Even doing solo dungeons it's like this. Hence when farming coa1 I just switch toons. It's quicker.

    @DRXHarbinger Or travel to another instance (just set foot inside another 4 man dungeon and step right back out.) Game has no choice but to reset the original instance in that case.
    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    That, I thought, didn't work. Good to know!

    And sorry @Xenofex, that strategy used to work for me when I was farming a long time ago. I guess they changed it, or it was something else I did :/

    Yes it does not reset.

    The only way I know at the moment how to reset it is to go outside arena and wait for 5+ min

    Grab a guildie. Therein lies the secret. That's why two man groups can do the norm to vet to norm dungeon reset. If you have a second person and you reset vet and norm before going back into MA at all then it should reset. Don't go in when you switch it to normal, just exit->norm->vet->kick guildie->enter voila!

    Yes, I do heartily repent. I repent I had not done more mischief; and that we did not cut the throats of them that took us, and I am extremely sorry that you aren't hanged as well as we.
