    speed run, good or bad thing?

    since the release of FF14 ARR, one of the most important trouble we did face (exept RMT and lag) are this... a few times the dungeon was tweeks for stop this... and still people do it.

    first it was with Amdapor Keep in 13 minutes
    after it was cm and praetorium in less of 20-25 minutes
    now is Wanderer Palace in 12-15 minute

    at the start it was because nothing was to gain from the monster, now, simply for gain time and do more in less time.

    more annoying is the fact some class are not wanted like in the V1, because you lack good aoe for do the new speedrun from Wanderer Palace.
    i was told early: "if you are not blm don't do Wanderer Palace"

    i know i can make group or use DF. but i feel concerned by this sort of behavior more and more frequent that lead into the modification of the game.

    ps: i know that i will be trolled but i think is important to talk of it

    Good thing. Speed runs are what makes grinding these same dungeons over and over again tolerable.

    To each their own...I'd rather just play. If it just so happens to be a sr w/e if it's a group that does 1 pull at a time w/e. I don't care either way.

    Good for experience players who need to farm tomestones fast, but very bad for new players.
    Personally, I prefer speed run but I don't mind do it in normal way.

    Good for: People who have done it 15 years worth of it.
    Bad for: People who are new.
    Doing it the long way constantly will make most of the people grinding go insane.

    It's completely dependent on the party.

    If they feel they are able, yes it's worth the effort.

    I like speed runs, and I also don't mind killing everything if that's what people want to do. I'm not in such a big rush to get my gear to inconvenience people who'd rather do the whole dungeon.

    I just go with the flow and heal.

    Good for those forming their own groups outside of Duty Finder. If one cannot get in to some else's speed run, there is nothing stopping said person from forming their own group. Bad for those imposing "speed run" using the DF.

    Speed runs or no runs.

    Seriously when you've gotta constantly run TWO dungeons for stuff it gets boring real fast.
