    People forcing SRs in DF

    Whats the deal with that one guy always trying to force a speed run in WP DF run, don't they know its better to form a group of EXPed players to pull it off perfectly?

    When I say I don't do SRs in DF there is a reason for it, and its most likely that the other players are under geared. You can still clear it in 20-25(maybe a little shorter?) minutes provided there are no wipes and people keep up with my steady pace that I'm comfortable with. If I wanted a speed run I would have asked for one in Mor Dhona.

    I don't understand why people do it and then they cry about it, when things don't go right. If you use DF and expect to SR 100% of the time it's not going to happen.

    In the future for the new tomes SE better make them uncapped (Myth ; ; ) and hard as hell to obtain.

    If you want to Speed Run make a party on the server and don't cry about it when you DF and take 5 extra mins.

    I have had a lot of good AK runs in DF.

    It's a new breed of speed-runners. They're called the non-relic SRs. Outcasted from Mordhana due to lack of gear, they prowl the DF in hopes of rallying undergeared adventurers to make risky sacrifices in hopes of shaving off minutes of time (that wouldn't make much of a difference because those minutes shaved off is miniscule to a normal run anyways).

    hah this is the truth, been paired with tanks in WP that cant hold the aoe aggro or get smashed trying to pull half the instance, or someone trying to do the boss wall lockout 'trick', and messing it up everytime...just do it the 'normal' way if you have to use the DF for gods sake

    with speed run u need PLD , brd , whm , blm. hard to get all those combinations in DF group. You can however SR with other combos but they aren't as effective

    I like SR's but if I use df to queue for wp I don't yell at anyone, sometimes I like to enjoy things as it goes. If I wanted a SR I would've joined any one of the groups yelling for it in mor dhona.

    I don't see the point of speed running WP anyway. Almost all of my DF groups I have been in clear it in like 20 minutes maybe a few more but not that much more. =/ Every now and then I do get groups with just horrid DD (geared dd at that and it makes me want to cry).

    Tanks should be assessing the situation when they do WP by now. If you see your party is fully loaded with relics. DO NOT RUN WP like everyone is in af....
    And people wonder why there is a tank shortage.......


    When I tank people are going at my speed they want to go faster and pull go ahead if they die oh well.

    Guess no one in MD wants to run with you huh?
    Seriously DF is for a casual run, if you have such a problem with the way people tank then by all means go tank
