How come this game got a mechanic to avoid trash mobs????

[Vactus]

Explain to me why we should kill every trash mob in the joint? I should stop to kill two mobs that I can just as easily lock out of the boss room? Were you around for the original AK SR? That was literally fighting just the bosses. You can't do that anymore in any dungeon. Want us to kill trash? Give me a reason to do so. Like door locks that are currently in place or something else. Other than some gil, no trash mob is actually worth killing unless it unlocks the boss or next section. Burn what you need, otherwise you're just wasting time or wanting to spiritbond. SB is the only reason I could see wanting to kill everything i.e. T3 of Coil.

Let's talk BrayHM since that's the new hotness for SRs. There are up to four pulls that are skipped. The 3 birds near the first bosses door, the two adds at that door are easily locked out, the raptors to the left of the second section and the last Couerl before the final boss. Two of those guard a chest. The raptors are easily avoided by having someone run to the chest and back down and to the boss door when Brayflox blows the rock. So that locks us out of a treasure chest that isn't worth much. I can do BrayHM in just about 10mins or so if I have a SR group ready for it. Otherwise in DF/DR it's treated like a SR ONLY in the fact that we skip stuff. We still kill all the needed trash just at a slower pace because DF/DR.

Edit: You mention them being minions and comparing it to WC3. WC3 is a very different genre and is a single player game. This is an MMO which by nature is grindy as hell and people want to complete things as quick as possible.

Edit:

Reasons I don't avoid them is because I am trying to EXP off of them, There's better ways to get myth if that's their reasoning to speed run a dungeon. like on AV and they just totally waste 50-100k exp because they don't wanna wait for the Morbol seedlings to pop that give roughly 4.5k exp per seedling, instead they kill them and I only get 400 exp.. REALLY?! -.-

That's a very different scenario. If you're still leveling, then most mobs aren't skipped and dungeons are speed runs. AV farming is another form of SR when it's the first room only. Which is something I've never done because I leveled during the good ol FATE grinding days last fall.

But thats what I see when I decide to do a duty finder group all day everyday. On that note they spend more time and effort trying to lockout the last trash before the first boss then it takes juzt to kill them. If we wipe guess what more time wasted. Dont blame the healer blame the tank. If they can't take heat why they in boiler room?

IF that is happening then it's a bad group anyways and shouldn't be doing SRs.
