I've had so many Level 13,14,15 players running Hauntlet today with me.
I usually like to run it with at least one other level 16.
Also if the party can not wipe out the first section in under 45 sec, it's time to leave.
Anyone else have little Hauntlet rules like this?
How slow/bad would a party have to be before you exit? If it takes a minute or more
on the first area?
Thoughts/Comments?
If you're concerned with getting tokens or the title, you're better off getting a group with your friends or guildmates.
With pugs, there is no way to avoid this. There will always be new people trying out the map who have never been there before.
I've only done random Hauntlet group once or twice and when it passed the 30 sec mark and we were still in the first room, I left.
Unfortunately some of us don't have many friends in AL yet as we've only been playing a short time. I have a few friends from PL, but none of them seem to be online very often. So my only choice is to join random games. So my rules are that when I join I want to see nobody lower than level 15, and at least one other level 16. If not, then I leave and join again. Otherwise the end result is that I end up having to spam 20 or 30 health pots and sometimes we still don't finish in less than 3:30.
I just do solo runs when it comes to Hauntlet. I can always get under 3 minutes alone but if I get stuck with a bad party I can take longer which I find crazy.
I blame the people who don't take out the necromancer mages right away and let them spawn tons of additional mobs to fight.
There's a simple solution to that: Make new friends. I know there are a lot of bad pickles out there, but there are a handful of nice people here in the forum and in game. Saying "Hi" is a good start.Quote:

there is always be 1st times in all thing, many people under 15 is 1st times do hauntled, so they dont know what going on. I quite often fight fallen warrior alone because other people still try kill all mops in second room even there is information about area clear. But that ok, just hope next times they dont do it any more. I just leave the map if my toon die, mostly my rogue, because we dont get coin if die.
I did it with some guildies and made it in 1min 22sec xP but they held off boss i ran to line xD they were all lvl 16 rogues with beastly gear!

If it takes longer than a minute to clear the first room, or if I or other people die in the first room, I usually just leave. I can solo Hauntlet in 3:30 so unless having a party makes it noticeably faster and/or easier, I don't see the point of it.
