Agreed. I've had to do it twice. Both times took longer than running it normal. The 2nd time the guy that insisted the most was the one who died every round. He insisted it was others faults for his death. Knight wasn't killed. Wizard wasn't killed. Boomer wasn't killed. To many acolytes. By our 4th wipe normal he said it was easier the other way and for some reason everyone agreed. Needless to say we struggled after that all the way to oryx.
