takes like 12-15 minutes with 2-3 players(and im no speed demon)but madstone
around 22 minutes solo
even faster if you dont bother doing elite/r1 at lvl

I also often clear those two raids on elite difficulty through solo play(Pure Paladin).According to the wiki, these can only be gained from 2 Raid chests. ( and one for favour ).
Is there any other way to get these ?
( as I play with a small group - 3 others - of irl friends, hence have never done ( and probably never will ) any raids except for that Marketplace one when seriously overlevelled.
We've tried a couple, but either get (a) swarmed by the sheer number of mobs, or (b) have to split up and then are too few to succeed in the combats ( see a ).
If hirelings could be used in Raids, we might make a fist of it, but as it stands, we cannot.
PS: I'm really interested in the answer to the question, rather than justifying why I/we don't raid, but to head that one off at the pass, firstly, I personally have issues gaming with complete strangers, and secondly, previous experiences with attempting to join a Raid group (years ago) generally panned out as :
"have you done this before ?"
"no"
<kick>
Thanks in advance.
Got your comms? I hope yes!Thanks for all the responses.
We are on Sarlona, so can't take up some of the help offers, but based on your comments ( seems we have only tried the hardest raids ), we will try these raids and see how we go.
Thanks again.
Hey, same here! Thelanis.Others above me have already answered your question but I'd like to add that if you're on Thelanis, I solo or 3 man a lot of the older raids and you and your friends are more than welcome to join us. Super low-key and zero pressure to excel. We play to have fun and fun we have.
Anyway, just thought I'd throw that out there.
Nice! I'll throw you a friend request the next time I play and maybe we can run some stuff together. Two of my RL friends that I play with, play almost every day but I'm hard pressed to play during the week as well.Hey, same here! Thelanis.
could really use more bodies, to do more raids.
Unfortunately, my most powerful friend is usually only on very early Sat/Sun am.
And I am usually too tired on week nights.
But I am on quite often throughout the weekends.
Main char: Ravenika.
I got so mad at the healing aura nerf, that I stopped playing the Cleric build I used to love. But...I'm still here.Nice!

To be honest, I haven't played at all since they destroyed tumble but my buddies are guilt tripping me to come back so I'm sure I will soon. It's quite a toxic relationship I have with DDO.
