I understand the reasoning for this, I really do. But when I am trying to level an alt I am doing it to just get away from the unnecessary stress of well... being level 50. I'm in a DUTY FINDER DD with my husband who is a tank and 2 other people. One person is leveling the other person is grinding his relic drop. My husband is doing a full dungeon run for the exp and this healer farming his relic gets REALLY rude towards us. Starts to spam annoyance emotes to my husband and then it ends up sparking a discussion about how rude WE are for wanting to clear the whole dungeon for exp when he is only there to speed through it.
We got pretty irritated at this guy and it ended up being 35 minutes of listening to his bitching and rude comments and fairly illogical way of speaking... especially how he claims, "Now that SE requires you to do this for relic, this is now a relic dungeon" and tells US to go get our exp outside the dungeon...
It was a HORRIBLE experience. I don't level up lower level chars to deal with level 50 drama. We couldn't even remove him from the party cuz the other dps was laughing at it and refused to kick.
Is this really how things are going to become? Why not make a party finder group to speed run your relics and leave duty finder alone? =/
One of the best things I like about FFXIV is there's so many ways to get exp in this game and I like to mix it up. Dungeon runs sometimes, fate runs another times, questing other times, hunting/challenge logs. Felt like doing a dungeon this time.
