Quote:My assumption here is that dropping a beacon after Temporus will save enough shield to allow Executioners through on three portals to be cleared up by a beacon on the following one. This may simply kill the shield and not work at all. It is very dependent on how often the Executioners spawn (which I don't know) and how fast we kill the Rift Lords. Your strategy is much simpler (which I like alot), but I'm wondering if the added complexity of mine could make up for a little less gearing. In your experience does it seem completely impossible or is there a chance of it working?
If your add handler can't do 10-11 with minimal help, 13-17 are going to be very rough without a beacon on each one. I do think it's doable the way you describe, but I don't really see how it really mitigates the DPS check any. Beacons are good, but they aren't magic - they only work really well in combination with players. Leaving one to clean up executioners will probably result in it despawning before the executioners are all dead. You could clean them up after all the portals are closed and Aeonus is out, but that's putting a lot of pressure on your healer.
Basically: doable, but probably the same difficulty or even a little harder.
