Why Speed Pulls?

[Rasylia]

Because if you pull groups one by one theres no need for a tank, or a healer for that matter.
Plus it just takes longer. You dont want to know the amount of times ive done brayflox hm, im pretty sure its coming close to a thousand by now.
As a bonus with 1 whm and 2 blms theres no need to heal even on large pulls, everything dies in a holy stun.

Ive done Animus while we had brayflox as only Myth farm method. Dont talk about brayflox.
Also, longer=boring? You are mixing things up and didnt explain why spamming one skill=not boring.

The solution is, and will always be a little Speedrun checkbox next to join in progress.
This should force skip cut scenes, and encourage pulling swiftly within reason.
Maybe even reward the group with bonus drops/tomes based on completion time.

You watch how quick all the anti cut scene skipper / anti speed run people are clicking that box and doing it to avoid 8 hour Q times, and reducing the amount of roulette they do weekly.

*Dreams*

TBH Staris, I'm actually impressed... I like this suggestion. Just to clarify on your accusations of "anti-cut-scene-skipper/speed runners" I don't mind SR's at all, but there are times when I queue as healer that I'd like to do more than spam cure with an occasional HOLY or Physick/Lustrate with the occasional Shadowflare... Speed runs are more exciting for tanks and DPS than it is for healers...

lolno...

Even two BLM's don't drop trash mobs in 6 seconds...

IMO, if you're the tank, you set the pace. The DPS get no say in this because they're the ones waiting 45 minutes in the DF. If they're impatient, they wouldn't be doing PUG parties at all.

That said, assume that all PUG DF's are speed runners. It's not that everyone wants to, but DPS tends to have the longest wait while healers/tanks have the shortest wait, so a tank/healer can ditch a party that moves too slowly and get penalized less for it.

Sounds like something I would say and have said many times in speed run threads. And guess what? She's absolutely correct!
