Fang Lair - Speed Run

So, last night we did the Fang Lair speed run, meaning we completed it in about 22 min and change - based on the timer starter when you engage the first enemies. We didn't get the achievement though. We believe it may have the same problem Bloodroot Forge had when first out, which is the timer is actually starting when you first enter the dungeon. We had some down time based on when people got in, etc. We did again, but started immediately upon entering the dungeon and got the achievement. Anyone else have this problem?

    Did you kill all adds? Skipping doesn't count for the achievement.

    We skipped a few at the end the first time because someone dropped down. Really? Okay. Usually it's just completion or bosses for those achievements. Every add counts?

    Yeah, the speed/no death achievements say bosses+every encounter. Skipping any add counts.

    I guess they are tired of the run and die method. :)

    It was a cheap method of getting speed runs.

    More aoe damage for trash packs. Most of the time in a dungeon is spent fighting trash so if your aoe is bad then you will be slow.

    If you don't bunch up the bone menagerie it will take longer, and after the second (sometimes first) idol you can just skip the rest on caluurion.

    That was with a healer, and doing mechanics. You can save a lot more time with 3 dps and skipping some mechanics. Like anything in this game, a good tank that can support and group things well, and 3 good dps, makes a big difference.
