Let Players Speed Run Again

So you want to take your time and explore the same dungeon every single time you run it?

Not really every single time, but to be honest, all I've ever done is speed through them since day one. the first runs, especially with story dungeons, I was gunning for the boss with the passion of the quest driving me. After that it was, well let get this crap over with, or Time to pwn the boss for the millionth time.

To this day I really havn't had the opertunity to look around and enjoy, marvel at, or (in some cases) gaze in horror at the actual dungeon it's self. Maybe one day after solo running is allowed in dungeons.

Heh. You guys are why we can't have nice things . I'm new to this game but I've done the MMO thing many different times now and I still abide by the doctrine of "If you have a specific way you want to play feel free to use the party finder or your guild".

All the complaining about speed running, not speed running, blah blah blah is at least part of the reason why tanks are the hardest things to come by in game. No one wants to deal with pressure to speed run or get kicked by the DPS that have been sitting in queue for 75 minutes to get into a 20 minute dungeon.

Azeroth Native? Or Elitist in the making? I can't tell. There has always been more to final fantasy games than "Beat the shit out of them!!!". Infact, even this petty squabaling is all part of the final fantasy experience. No one is more divided on how we want this series than the fan base it's self. Probably why, for the most part, SE rarly listens to our bitching. lol

I'm with you . I was more responding to the first people in the thread who were saying there's an ethical obligation to running it as fast as possible. I'm happy to run a dungeon however everyone else wants to do it...it's kinda nice to see the dungeons.

But yeah, I'm not an elitist I just mean in general if people get really upset about the duty finder then don't use it - especially DPS who have the easiest job.

And I do apologize, As I've said, I did misinterpret what you were saying and that was all my bad. So I do apologize for that. And you're right, you can't have it all cause you can't please every one.

If I see a farm party on PF for content I havn't done I will either pass over them or ask if they're ok with a rookie. If they arn't I move on. As for DF, 1st thing I do as tank is greet the party and make sure we're all on the same page. Even if it's all melees, if they think they can handle the swarm and the healer says they can keep up I'll give it a shot, but the majority vote always rules to me. 2-1 vote for or against. And if it's up to me..... well my pace is kinda half way anyway. Like when I run my alts in satasha NM. "We doing all rooms or going streight to the boss?" Vote goes up and we follow through.
