"Fix" Speed Runs? How about fixing the real issue?

[Vili]

Greetings,

We're planning to release a hotfix next week that we'll use to address and adjust a few elements.

One of the adjustments regards the regular monsters in level 50 dungeons and how there is currently no reason to defeat them.

We'll be announcing additional details about the hotfix details soon!

Only way to fix it, is to
A) Make it so you need to kill everything (please don't, that is just stupid)
B) Make it so they drop a SUBSTANTIAL amount of Gil. Maybe some Allagan pieces or the occasional 1-3 Tomes.
I don't mean so much gil we become rich, but enough to pay for repair costs. Your 1 Gil from mobs in Ak is a joke.

Here is my idea for this fix. Give 1 Philosophy Tome per enemy defeated in a dungeon. That way people actually have a reason to defeat them! You can readjust the amount of tomes given out per boss (they drop loot anyway) so that it isn't broken in terms of rushing through equipment. Sound good?

that's a really good idea.

inb4 "reason to kill them" means "you have to kill every mob in an area to unlock a portal to the next"

PLEASE don't give them any ideas! I'm already on the verge of just quitting due to being burnt out on CM and AK and that I think doing my laundry is more fun those those on the 20th run

Now I know I am probably being way to positive since this is SE we are talking about......but maybe if you kill all the trash mobs you will get more tomes? I know its probably a one-handed, blind man's shot in the dark but I can be irrationally optimistic, can't I?

They could do it similar to a HQ item for a crafting leve. Kill ALL the mobs and you get a percentage bonus of tomes at the end, that'd be a pretty good adjustment if you ask me, I hate being forced to skip packs, especially when it feels like each group has different expectations of the tank.

Wouldnt surpise me. The fix will be that we have to kill all mobs to proceed to bosses but no added rewards for doing so. Nope wouldnt surprise me in the least.

The problem isn't that it doesn't drop any gil. They all drop 1 gil. ONE. GIL. It's a fucking insult!

I see no good coming from this.

Why only the Level 50 Dungeons? Theres more than just the level 50 Dungeons.

CM nerf incoming, guess I have to farm it even more than usual.

Because killing enemies in pre-50 dungeons nets you experience unlike level 50 dungeons where killing the extra enemies nets you nothing but a bigger repair bill.
