    @Amdapor Keep Whiners

    For people whining about speed run, trash mobs:

    Do not give gil
    Do not give loot
    Do not give tomes
    Do not give exp
    Wear down your gear faster then dieing

    Note: Only 1 person gets 7 Allagan Bronze Pieces from chest.

    Result? Clearing all trash mobs wastes your time and most important, makes your repair fees bigger. The amount of trash there is will result greater repair fee cost then dieing 3 times.

    Before you even whine about speed runs, how about making trash mobs drop something useful!?

    Clearing all Trash Repair Cost > Dieing 3 times for speed run repair cost

    How about making the boss inactive and untargetable until 75% of the "trash" is cleared.

    Speed runs, they was apart of 1.0? i seem to remember skipping trash in dungeons then too. its here to stay, get with it. There's no need to kill them.

    I can understand when a new tank complains, but I've seen healers and dps complain too, even if there's an experienced tank leading the way. Why? All speed runs do is speed up the run, cutting out the extra crap that doesn't need to be done. Is there a reason why people absolutely MUST fight every last piece of trash in a dungeon? I know some say "I don't know how to do it!" so here's a guide in speed runs:

    1: Tank runs to boss room (or safe spot if they can't make it the whole way)
    2: dps/healer follow tank
    3: tank dies away from the group

    Sure is hard isn't it? But people refuse to even try it, and that's just sad.

    Im against speed runs pre 50 because you miss out on exp. Post 50 there is no incentive to not speed run.

    ANNNND there goes your credibility.
    and also, our insane repair bills and lack of means to make gil at any reasonable, decent rate make me unable to care less how many of you would rather sit and look at stone buildings or whatever or kill the same mob over and over for about an hour or so. Do that on your own time with your friends who share your wants and desires please.

    This same logic can be applied to people who are there for speed runs only that use the duty finder and get a player who is completely new to the dungeon. Do you really think it's going to be a speed run if the player has no clue what they're doing anyway? Regardless of how many times you explain something to someone you learn by doing. Not having information whipped at you, the information only helps to quicken the learning curve, it doesn't make them an expert on the dungeon.

    Egh, on one hand I really love doing speed runs. But on the other, I really don't want to ruin someone else's first experience of the dungeon if they really want to do it normally.

    This is a really cool attitude /cheer

    Most everyone else in this thread is just being selfish :/ which when using the Duty Finder is just gonna make you seem like a loser. DF is about working together with ppl you don't know, being flexible, and teamwork.
