    Default Epic Chains of Flames

    I suggest they up the Epic token to 2 for this quest....

    For the time and resources used to only get 1 token out of it is really not worth running. Not to mention, trying to get guildies to run it with you just so you have a chance at a seal/shard you may need. There are only 2 shrines in this quest/coupled with the added traps and the barrage of Archer damage you take from above . This quest is truly EPIC in nature.

    Epic Devil's Assault= 2 tokens for 45 mins avg.

    Doesn't make sense that EDA is worth 2 and ECoF only worth 1 token.

    Yeah I agree.

    Getting people to run it can be like pulling teeth. I'm happy to say I got all the seals out of there I need....but if they increased the token amount to 2 I would run it more often.

    Chains by far is the only quest to me that feels Epic. It's not hard by any means but the lack of shrines makes it alot more of a challenge.

    Yah i agree it should be 2 tokens.

    Cash how long are ur runs taking? ours are under an hour with no resources and ew have EDA to just over 30 mins. From those numbres yeah absolutely chains should be worth 2 if not 3.

    Chains of Flame is one of the few truely epic quests in DDO. I categorize it up there with Von5 and DA which both give 2 tokens. For sure it deserves the same treatment in rewards for time spent.

    The run that it took to get my Seal of the Ring of Baphomet was Three. Effin. Hours. Little in the way of deaths/resource consumption, but just.. loooong. Soem of the other runs I've done have been more like 2 hours, but certainly I don't get in the sub-60 minute runs being discussed here.

    We did a 45 min run once(no I don't have SS) but we ran it alot when desert 1st came out. If I rememeber right I drank 2 pots on the run(on my cleric) and it went rather smooth.

    The funny thing is most of the time is spent on traps than anything else in that quest. That trap on the bridge with the fire trap being the most deadly and time consuming IMO.

    I've been in some painful runs too though.
