Keyes seems to be like Lambda, which requires you to be more on your toes and to work in a smaller group than the entire Trial group. That periodic pulse is rather rough... I got nervous whenever I needed to use Healing Flames between pulses. This was alleviated when people were using their area heals well, but I still find that frustrating... for all that these trials require teamwork, people seem bent on doing their own thing or racing from one room to the next in Lambda, etc. I guess it's nice to have the challenge.
I think I'm more concerned that it seems to take longer than a BAF or Lambda and doesn't reward as well, at least as far as Astrals go. Anyone been timing these much? Lambda is always faster for me than a BAF, and Keyes was at least as long as the BAF I was on beforehand tonight. It really gets that way when you include wait time as well... forming up for some trials (if you're there early on) can make forming for a TF seem like nothing.

keyes is not a challenge because there is no way to avoid the pulse except be or hug the healer, in apex you can avoid the patches, in keyes you cant do jack except die and sit in the hosp, not to mention 3/4 of the trial is extremely tedious
