Castrum Meridianum must be NERFED to 50 or 20 tomes of Tomestones of Philosophy

Let them whine guys.

remember, by queueing in duty finder, people should expect some people to watch cutscenes. If they wanted a fast run they shouldve make a party among themselves instead of queueing.

So if you use df to queue for cm you have every right to watch cutscenes regardless of what others say.

I don't think they should nerf it, but I feel your pain OP. I tried to run it today for the first time, by the time I got out the first CS my whole party was no where to be found. I checked the map and got put in another CS, I skipped it, and saw that I had 15 seconds to get to the boss lol... Needless to say I didn't make it to the arena in time so I just left...

I'm sure what happened to me is on one end of an extreme but it did leave a bad taste in my mouth. Not really sure what should be done about it, but I look forward to seeing what SE does if anything about it.

I do think its a pretty crappy end game dungeon. It does not drop gear, full of cut scenes and drops like 1 gill for repairs

You can watch those cut scenes in your inn. I skipped them and I never watched them its not that big of a deal.

I can't even take this thread seriously.
I am going to believe this is a joke and the OP is trying to be funny.
Yes, that has to be it.

Goes both ways pal.

No it doesn't, if you use duty finder for speed runs, you do not get to complain when they watch cs.

Speed runners should be the ones to form a party, there will always be more people on your own server farming it, than actually wanting to run it.

Not all cs are watchable via the inn room. Please just stop with that.

I'd laugh in your face if it was my first time running it, and that's what you demanded I do.

OT: Just watch 'em OP, there is literally nothing anyone can do to stop you, and there's no acceptable reason that they should try. That said, it does not need to be nerfed, AK is overcrowded enough.

Umm... no.

You do realize that in your inn room you have this nifty book sitting there that's titled, "Unending Journey" right? You can click this book and watch any cutscene you've experienced, whether you skipped it the first time or not.

And even then, the people who are skipping cutscenes to farm CM are generally better geared or over geared and know what they're doing. I queue with a healer friend of mine (I play PLD tank), and the two of us are easily able to hold a group of mobs while the rest of the party catches up, even if they don't skip the cutscenes.

Yes, they are. Some are more difficult to find than others, since they're listed under different categories (main quest, trial, etc), but all cutscenes for dungeons are in the book. In particular, even though it's not a trial, some of the CM cutscenes are in the Trial section of the book.

Then watch them? I don't understand why everyone has to suffer because you aren't able to stand up to a bully.

Pretty much this. I don't mind taking care of trash pulls while first timers experience the epic scenes. :)

So how are you going to get your darklight gear? AK runs? Most of the time people say rush and skip the all CS's not like Castrum is hard. Most Groups can carry half the party anyways. Also I don't see why you are so worried about it do your one run and don't go back? I do about 10 castrum runs a day and I haven't seen anyone tell anybody to skip CS's. While your at it why don't you ask them to nerf AK and only give us 20 myth.


EDIT You do know that no one is stopping anyone from watching any CS's right?????? If it's your 1st time watch them if your a tank or healer then the party will have to wait for you but if you are a DD you will probably get left. Also If you area a tank or whm castrum can be done with 1 tank and 1 whm.
