    There is no reason to kill trash in there what so ever, the only reason that place is even there is for our af2 currency, if your worried about kills for your hunting log, make a group for that reason.

    Newbie:
    I lol'ed. I'll admit that I now belong to the speed runners. But I always ask the party if they prefer speed run or regular run. And I always pick the regular one if there's a new member in my party. Unfortunately this leads to other people leaving the party and me following soon after.

    If you want to kill trash, go out in the wild and farm.
    Problem solved.

    Since the only thing people want from that dungeon (unless they are new lvl 50's, then they might want gear) is the tomestones.
    And the fastest way to get the tomestones is by skipping all the trash and finish the dungeon in 15 minutes.

    I don't see the problem, you don't gain anything by killing the trash.
    As everyone else have said, if they want to make killing the trash worthwhile then make them drop something that we need.

    The reverse can be said about wanting to do a Speed run, if you want to do a speed reason, make a group for that reason yourself and don't use duty finder. Anyways, I would agree that if nothing good comes out of killing trash, there is no point, but if ppl need hunting log or anything else relating and they used duty finder, yer in the wrong for not expecting this.

    As a Tank, I refuse to do speed runs. They cost me in the range of 700-800 gil per death, with a minimum of 3 deaths a run. A normal run without wipes typically costs me 800-ish gil. I'm not paying for you, sorry.

    What world do you live in? I speed run AK all the time and if you don't die more then the 3 times you need to then my repair bill is under 600g for the entire run.

    @OP - For those of us pushing to get into end game quickly, speed runs are the only way to go. Killing trash means that it takes you more then double the amount of time to get the same amount of gear. Granted I won't use duty finder to do it unless we just have someone that dropped for a run to go get food etc. then maybe we would do a run with a pug. Normally I'll still try to pick up in FC or on the server instead of duty finder though. Speed runs don't really work when you get new people that don't know the instance. People tend to die to demon wall first time around

    people wanting to speed run with a full DF group are out of their minds.

    and gear repair goes by actions used, not deaths. you would have a higher repair bill if you ran the whole dungeon correctly.

    It's good we can rush. Trash mob without interest, just loss of time.

    While I've never done one of these "speed runs" I completely agree with this. Mobs need to give more than 1 gil per person.
