Boy that Dark Obelisk event is rough!

So I can solo the bounties easily, so I figured the event itself can't be that much harder... insta-death. Okay, no big deal, I'll grab a merc... nope dead again... Get a small group together with people higher level than me (I am 32)... nope we get wiped a few times... bring in stronger PCs, one of which is RDD and immune to the Fire Drake's insane AOE fire blasts... still very rough but doable. Still, we couldn't seem to kill things fast enough to get flames to power the obelisk and make progress. No matter how many flames we brought, nothing seemed to occur. I assume it was because we took too long getting the flames (they didn't dissipate, we did get them to the obelisk, but there seems to be a limited amount of time to get multiple flames to the obelisk to trigger what I assume is a boss/mini-boss encounter once it is fully powered up).
It was getting late at night and we all had work in the morning so we decided to abort, rest/regroup and try again another day better prepared. I sure hope that weapon is worth all this effort!
