70k'ish range on Luminious, takes around 15minutes.

Depends on job. I solo'd on my shade w/ 20k'ish range.

@MrSinDeath: You are doing HT wrong. Stand on the right side of him, since his seduce makes you go right if you get hit. And use showdown on him until the legs and tail are dead. It makes him untouchable, so you won't take damage if you run into him, and once they are dead there is nothing to run into anymore, so no more touch damage. And normal HT doesn't deal 16k touch damage, he never hits me for more than 7k at a time.

160k range Paladin Full buff, take like 1min for both heads and 2-3mins for the whole body (Depending if i time myself right with my Bind + Magic Crash the Two heads from the right).

Then again OP Lightning Charge can hit 2 Heads + Right Arm + Wings at the same time (I love watching that 1/3 of health falling so quickly)

My marksman has about 155k with 90% boss and it takes about 5 mins.
So I guess a minimum range of 50-60k can handle HT within 30 mins.

Sure you can do it with 50k but that takes a while

Depends more on the class than the range.

My NL has 150k range but if I get seduced at the wrong time or knocked into the body I usually take over 16k damage and die.

If your class has higher health or greater status resistance then you should be fine to kill within the time even with basic empress gear

Probably 50ish k. Maybe even lower?
