Wanting more speed runs

Can we please have more ways to run dungeons faster maybe cut out the cut screens

I mean after running ak and wp 1000's of times i just want to get in and get out

It's getting very boring and maybe just elimating cut screens will speed it up a bit

There was a dev post that they are working on putting something in to turn
the cutscenes off through an option. Not sure when it will be put into the
game, but there was a response. I forget where, sorry. >_< It's in the
dev tracker.

(skipped) CS only add like, what, an extra ten secs to a run? Is ten seconds really worth it for you to pull the dev's attention away from important stuff to do this??

A few seconds, a few minutes. Someone will cry speed run and it'll be nerfed. Inb4forcedtowatchfullcs

Maybe SE should set up a separate server just for ppl that want to speed run, rush content, and skip all cutscenes.

I'd love this tbh.

I want to switch my main job to BLM but I just cant face farming all those stones by running all those dungeons again. I just cant do it. Might leave the game altogeather tbh as I'm not willing to do AK another billion times, my brain is dying from the thought lol

It's not so much about the time as the irritation.
Especially when you're half way through killing a mob and someone activates the cut scene

You're delusional if you think that being able to save one minute will make anything better.

...and 95% of all people will inevitably transfer to this server eventually after running AK, WP, CM and such over and over and over again.

Depends on your system. Older PCs and ps3s take forever to load, so it can add several minutes in a cutscene-heavy dungeon like CM.

Ooohhh! That irritates me so much. Or when you're rasing someone and it's at like 3s left or they're about to accept and someone walks into the boss room.

Maybe if SE's grind isn't so incredibly boring and devoid of challenge then people wouldn't go around skipping everything. It's their choice to make the cost of tokens required for items so ridiculously high and player just respond accordingly.

I still think that the DF should have a speed-run category you can tick for any duty.

And even better if using the speed-run category meant all cutscenes were automatically skipped.

You're full of shit. There's a difference between speed running and rushing content. We're not skipping any content by speedrunning WP for our philo tomes.

I like the current pace, Just saying.

CS give me a chance to grab a drink or a bite knowing I'm not going to miss a pull.

I don't mean go make supper. I mean just a bite off the plate in front of me.

What they should do actually is add a real progression path that does not involve grinding super easy content until your eyes bleed.

All I am saying is that the current grind is so boring it makes me not want to even do it

Now if I can get in a wp have everyone skip cutscenes and chain pull skip treasure boxes that drop 40gil and aoe down mobs and go hard on bosses

So that way you get in and out in less then 30 min

Now like someone else said cutting 1 min off a 30 min run adds up to a lot of freakin min when you run the same place over and over and over and over x100

Now look at this it takes 900 mythology tomes 5910 philosophy tomes to have a full set of dark light gear and your relic +1
Which is basically the min req for coil so that in turn means

590 runs of wp
I pic wp cuase as of right now thats the fastest place to get your tombs

So shaving 1-2 mins off of 590 runs you tell me would you like to see cs cut out after eve getting a quarter of the way throught that grind

It's not 590 runs, it's 59 per ONE job. But yeah it's a lot of runs... They should have added Aurum Vale, Dzeamel Darkhold and Stone Vigil to 100 tomes dungeons. It would make things so much bearable for everyone to farm five different dungeons instead of 2 right now.

I guess having the thought of it just being a bit shorter helps the mind calm down from all the cancer growing from the stress of having to watch 1-2 minutes of cutscenes...

at one point and it seemed to be missed by the other translator, they stated, people want to force others to miss movie segements (cutscenes) but that is not a priority to them to cut content from the game for those people.

However a in game search ability to find others for speedruns will be implemented (and other types). THey are annoyed with servers with people segregating others and shouting " Relic Only for CM..." basically laughing about those people.
