    when everyone hits 60 and youre racing the clock it better be a sneak im serious! what are you gaining from killing mobs and staking more time up for completion? I bet most of these people have cleared and have some ptsd potd donts in their head. dont no 1 : dont split from party - realty: first 20 floors youre probably ok. last 30? probably a death wish, maybe a full wipe.

    you can get to F41 with around lv 58-60 at the start of F41 and then to 60 in F45 or so killing most if not all mobs,
    with ample time left over for boss, a good 20min or so, and that not being a perfect group :O
    Thats what we did before they tweeked the silver chest rate and we had to run HUNDREDS just for a single weapon if our luck was crap.
    somehow the newer runners seem to have a hard time accomplishing this.
    For example I use to be able to Cleric stance up until F41, where after F41 you dont want it cause circumstances can change from good to awful in a blink.
    (I like to be on the safe side. maybe super healers can do it)
    But lately i cant even cleric stance in the lower levels cause they soak up so much dmg =/

    From playing now and then, i feel there is a significant difference in, at least in healer point of view,
    how busy you are (cause they use to kill everything, we were used to being super focused busy)
    Killing all + traps etc spawns with ample time were a tiny challenge in itself.
    If there is lv 200s added in the future, i have some doubts the newer methods can go through this smoothly past floor 50 if its so laid back as it is now.
    I doubt the future levels will be NON hectic, and 90% of the current runners are already having problems
    And yes it is severely laid back playstyle compared to before.
