The Emperor's Sword- Tyrant's personal story

First of all, I want a Tyrant powerset stat, just had to get that out of my system.

Second, this mission is screwy as hell, aside from how awesome it is for the first 40 seconds after walking outside. I mapservered 4 times in a row after clearing out ~half of the Arachnos dudes. After the first time through I closed the browser I usually have open while I play and still DC'ed the second time. After that, I actually turned my graphics down LOWER than I run them on incarnate trials... And still DC'ed.

My computer is pretty crappy, but it still runs partial ultra mode settings and does every trial pretty well on lowered settings. Is this mission really THAT much more intense than the rest of the game, or is there something buggy happening here?

It's not your computer and it has nothing to do with the graphics. Tyrant's powers do so much damage that the game's servers can't handle that much information going back and forth, hence the lag. Your safest bet is to pull the enemies with your laser beam attack and stick to mostly single-target attacks (although I do find that some of the AoEs can be safe to use once you've pulled some away, but this may depend on your connection).

We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...

This is the single greatest thing I've ever read on the forums.

(Also, thanks for the info, haha.)

Editor's Note:
As it currently exists, this mission is possible to complete, but it is long and tedious. There are over 180 enemy mobs spawned on the last map, which causes frequent lost connections to the mapserver when they are defeated. The most reliable workaround is to slowly pull mobs using Laser Beam Eyes and defeating them with that attack and Energy Smash. Be careful not to enter the center of the Magisterium plaza right away to avoid drawing too many mobs at once. Even still, the mission will pause after each mob, so remain patient and methodical. It may also be beneficial to avoid using the Zeus' Lightning power, as some report that it causes additional lag.
