Cannot obtain Escape Artist title in DL

When running new players through DL and turning off the Alarms, the new players who haven't gotten the title for Escape Artist do not receive it.

Typically, we take the whole party and kill everything as we run through.

Is this a bug?

When I got the title a long time ago, we had to have one person wait outside the instance until just before 2nd alarm was turned off. That does not work either. Does anyone else have this same problem?

Yes, it has been bugged for some time, several months I would guess but at least one of my guildies got the title after 4 or 5 tries.

We did much the same as you, whole party killed as we went. Next time, left the party outside while 2 of us ran the alarms.

I can't remember which way worked in the end but I suspect it is just bugged & if it is going to work either way will work.

Got the title just a week or two ago on my druid. You just need to not die during second alarms (if you're actually there and not just up front), and the alarms need to not bug out, too. I've noticed the alarms tend to bug more than they used to. It can take quite a few tries if you're unlucky.

Doesn't matter if you die or not... just have to make it to the top "by" the barrier when alarms go down. And yes, its anything but reliable. My dwarf had ran through 3-4 times, sometimes living, mostly dieing, but finally getting it when laying face down just outside the door... it has never been reliable.

I got the title just 2 days ago, so it seems it is obtainable.

People can get it just by staying at the front of the instance when second alarms are turned off. Alarms do bug more than they used to, but the title is achievable.
