Sorry for the low quality shots, I didn't realize until after that my settings were still on low.

EDIT: Our final time excluding death penalty was 2 hours 47 minutes. We were not in Dragonstar for over 9 hours.

    Congrats to our guys that put in the effort to finish this place, it was a fantastic effort from Zenimax and if this is the way PvE keeps going we are really going to have some interesting stuff ahead off us, the increase in difficulty from the pts to live is fantastic.

    Good luck to everyone still progressing on it!

    Probably not even on my to-do list at this point. The normal one can take over an hour, two even, but 10? Sick.

    Edit to add: I aint bagging on your accomplishment at all, no. Thats a well done there, its the fact it took 10 hours to do. -.- If DSAV takes 10 hours for one of the better guilds out there, whats that say for anyone else that goes for it. Id rather not spend literal days in one place.

    I respect you guys, you're good players. However, you got World first Arena PTS, we got World First Veteran Arena.

    Live server is the competition, PTS is the test. The arena changed completely between PTS and final live release.

    EDIT: I just noticed this comment:

    Is that how it works? You redefine the competition to whatever is convenient for you...

    I respect you guys as players, but you post some insane stuff. Anyways, how did you manage to have time to beat this, having to confirm delete on all those ingame mails?

    I understand that but we had the discussion already on the pts forum and all the important guilds agreed that the world first is on pts ... just u guys have a different opinion ;)

    Yes it changed ... the last boss is much easier than on the pts before they bugged him.... even ZOS confirmed that

    Anyway ... its just a game

    We'll remember that when a boss is released on PTS accidentally with 100 health.

    Oh we know, that is why we took so long to kill it. This was only our fourth time in DSAV, and only our third time reaching the boss. We knew that you've never played an MMO at a competitive level and as cute as it is that you believe PTS matters, it doesn't. Welcome to the real world of competitive MMOs.

    EDIT: I would again encourage you to watch the documentary "Race To World First" documenting the competitive world of MMO progression raiding.

    You tested the test content... We beat the actual content that matters. How is this hard to understand. I don't see your achievement from the PTS on your actual character -_-. Most people didn't play the PTS because it doesn't even matter. If it was easier than the PTS and you knew how to beat every boss, how did you not beat it before us when half our group never touched the PTS, and it was only our third time in vet Dragonstar? I don't even think we touched it one night.

    I hate to be the one stating the obvious here but since no one else is, the job is left to me. World of Warcraft is the MMO that set the standard. With that being said, the website that tracks the kills for that MMO gives the EU the difference of the however long it takes for their servers to go live. Do the math and figure out who won. PTS makes a difference only for the knowledge they gained to take their skills to live also which means claiming anything about world first PTS might be great and all when PTS is live but as soon as servers go live, most of the PTS numbers are normally forgotten.

    Live is what matters and if you want to be competitive you have to play by the same rules.

    Yes you are the best .... even when everybody else has different opinion your is the one which counts ...

    Yes I never played mmo before, 100 % im playing longer online games than you are on the world but don't care ... link me again the documentary ^^

    Btw not welcome to competitive MMOS, because ESO is far far away from competitive. But you know that ... which guild u played for in wow?

    And you can use that in your signature I don't really care, I dont use one, so if you feel better just state it like u did, im fine with that ^^

    I didn't participate on the pts. Instead I was working on my live character. But to be frank, I think everyone cares about the loot.

    We beated it in a much better time than u guys and dont forget that EU Server is going online 14 hours later ... so if u want to play it like in WOW than sorry we did the world first ... hope that no other EU Guild is beating it in the next 11,5 hours
