    This bugged out on us for a couple of minutes last night, i'm sure of it. All of us on the one platform and we only had a fraction of a second where the tentacle would be targettable. It would stay up at the platform we were at, we just couldn't damage it.

    Yes it is really called Red Wedding, and I about fell out of my chair when I saw it. Tam-Tara HM really turned out well in terms of having a delightfully creepy atmosphere without going completely over the top...although that final CS inches right up to the edge of bad taste without quite falling over. Make sure to pause and read all the Torn Folios scattered about the place for bonus scary/disturbing points before everyone gets in speedrun mode and won't give you the time to do so.

    All in all, I rather like the 3 new dungeons, but I can already tell that doing any of them as a (solo) roulette could easily be a painful experience with the wrong group.

    Tam-Tara is ,hands-down, the best dungeon in terms of story/ambiance/theme. Ever.

    My money is on a future flaming Succubus Edda and I'm happy they left it open-ended for that possibility.

    The final Tam Tara CS is like...actually pretty f-ing freaky. I went to finish the quest after the dungeon and thought the taru would be like "so glad we could put her to rest!" but nope:

    Spoiler: show

    I love Edda. Would fuck crazy girl. How goddamn strong is she, though, to kill all those people, summon and control all those demons, AND use the demons's stolen souls to further power her scheme? I'm beginning to think her power is fueled from her insanity. Crazy bitches be crazy...

    I think Hullbreaker has the potential to be the fastest but none of them seem to lend themselves to speed runs. Tam Tara is all kinds of messed up, especially the mob names. Made me laugh. The final CS is just freaky.

    I loved the Stone Vigil Bosses. All kinds of dino/dragon related things. Thought they were awesome The final boss on Hullbreaker was fun.

    My only complaint is how few armour drops we got compared to crafting mats.

    this has been a problem for a while now. crafting mats are so ridiculously common compared to the armor. imo they should be separate drop slots

    An idea I was bouncing off FC-mates: have every boss drop a mat chest and a loot chest. Like the 2nd boss in the last 6 dungeons always has 2 chests; just have all the bosses do that and make them mat/loot.

    Alternatively, drop a mat and loot chest, and have the party "vote" to pick one by touching it. Only thing is this could be abusable by morons.

    By this, do you mean that the mat chests are optional and kind-of off to the side in places, and the gear is reserved for boss chests?
