me and my g/f ran this as a due several times and it doesn't take an hour to do with seeing all the cs. and this is doing both cm and prae.

imo you guys were very rude, game needs new players to keep going your behavior drives them away. threads like this come up often, when will ppl learn to treat new players a bit better.
I stated playing XI about 2 years after the NA launch. When my LS buddies ran me through the old (insanely long) missions to help catch me up, I skipped just about every CS because I didn't want to make them wait on me. That to me would have been an incredible waste of their time when they are the ones doing me the favor.

Anyway, in my screenshot I posted, I was only trying to explain what was going to happen - and hey, I used smilies! Tone is hard to read in text, and so I tend to be excessive with my smiley use. I was trying to reassure him he wasn't missing much of anything (fighting-wise) since the first two replies came off a bit cold (to me), and it appears he took mine in the same manner. But yeah, an explanation is the best you can offer in those dungeons. It's delusional to think that a full DF group is going to wait on the new member.
