Speed runs an Exploit??

[Darkjolie]

Hey Guyz so this if my first time making a Topic on here

But today I was in a speed run as healer, we did WP

Tank pulled all the mobs, we just killed the last Tonberry to open door to Boss
The blackmage sleeped all the Mobs, and we pulled the boss

After 15seconds the room is closed with an invisible wall and all the sleeped enemys returned to their position, this was done in 1 minute, so at 87min left we slayed the first boss down.... Thats for those people dont know what a speedrun is

Now the Bard saw this in our group and said this is an exploit and left dungeon..?

My question is this really an exploit/cheat? Or is it allowed to do so ?

Developer already stated that it is NOT an exploit. Players are free to do this in game as they wish.

They also said DD was not an exploit, yet got nerfed. Knowing SE's prior actions I'm expecting some form of change to be made at some point in the future

Why make fun of someone for acting on their conscience? It makes sense that he might consider it an exploit, since similar tactics have been removed by SE in the past. Takes a lot of courage to explain your feelings to a group of people who obviously don't agree -and- take a sacrifice in time by leaving. Sounds like he cares about honesty.

what does conscience have anything to do here? Why does choosing whether to kill some certain mobs involve conscience? Cant the player make a choose how do they fight? Does it mean it is an exploit if someone use water to fight fire?

The player can make a choice on how they want to do the fight, the guy who left choose not to do the dungeon like the rest of the group. His conscience was why he made the choice and now he's getting mocked because of trying to be honest. Whether the method used was an exploit or not doesn't matter, he didn't feel right doing it. Why should we insult someone because of this? :/

But what about the 50gil per mob you are missing out on?!
