Well I tried to zerg it as best I could. That's probably about as fast as I can do it I would say. The only other things that I think could make better time is slotting +1 ki on hit, so you can abundant step more often. The other thing might be a faster way to get to the top. Apparently there is a way to get to the top of the glacier right above the exit to the top of the mountain which would cut down another minute or two.

I'm not sure how the dps of my build stacks up to other builds so others can probably do it faster but that is probably gonna be my personal best for a while. I'm assuming in a perfect run I could maybe shave off a minute or two at best. A shiradi that gets +10 ability scores twice can probably destroy that time but that would be very rare.

I had one perfect run last week but died with the boss under 10k hp. I checked the video and it was right on 21 miniutes. So another few seconds to finish the boss and another 40-50 for the quest to complete and that run finishes about the same time as yours. I think if I was to beat it it would only be by a few seconds. I will give it a shot though.

Thats a very impressive run and I look foward to watching the video.

Now that I scroll through the video a few things that could be costing me time is my bow, having to run and heal a bit, and using whirlwind on a single target. And of course the 10 seconds that I could not pull the lever because of a cold dot lol.

This is all only a few seconds of time saving though.

According to the video we only have the following stages, where the raid can be actually done faster:
Dragon beatdown #1: 20 sec
Dragon beatdown #2 + Magma Ellies: 146 sec
Dragon beatdown #3 + Artifact #1: 130 sec
Artifact #2: 7 sec
Artifact #3: 6 sec
Artifact #4: 6 sec
Artifact #5 + Dragon Kill: 30 sec

Total: 345 seconds (5:45)

To get under 10 minutes we have to cut off another 70 seconds, which means a total beatdown time of 275 seconds.
Or in other words: "We need moar dips!"

(Video is up by the way

Hmmm, the only way to achieve more dps is to actually build the party with a specific set of builds instead of us all turning up on whatever toons we are logged in on....

I was more thinking of replacing the 50 DPS Grandmaster Monk with something useful

+1 I like that.

I do not know if this is appropriate, considering the achievements posted in this thread, but here is a Vintage ddo video.

End of October 2007, first abbot elite completion in the european servers. Cap was at level 14 at the time, and we had to use various tactics to avoid Encase such as summoning efreets (immune to inferno) or charming the undead so they act as decoys to the abbots encasement, fom, dw, enlarge spell for the support classes, quicken, plenty of gasoline (majors), the Atonement sword and ofcourse speed and reflexes.

Ofcourse the 3 puzzles back then had various bugs and were almost incompletable. For example the phase room on elite did not have any blue tiles and those that existed were flickering like christmass lights. Back then the tiles did not have a "fade out effect". Months later and after 3-4 patches we completed it with the puzzles, although you could still brute force the abbot. After even more patches and almost a year after the initial release, you needed the phylacteries to complete it.

Very appropriate, thanks for sharing.

Tested a pure pally THF with KotC Capstone on lamma in elite ToD. 18:13 including killing Suulomades.
This was with the MRR healing bug still around. So my selfheals were absolutely terrible due to having 101 MRR.
