    Pharos Sirius is...

    It's definitely new and exciting, which makes it fun, however is it actually worth it? The only difference in gear I have seen was from the first chest, and the rest is the same ole' stuff we used to get from AK. A few of the bosses are challenging at first, but definitely not difficult. The thing is, even if this dungeon is fun, is it really worth running?

    The time it takes, the gear you get, and the amount of myth you get from this dungeon aren't really worth while in my opinion. If you DF and get someone who doesn't understand the fights, or even if you form a group and they aren't the best of players, you could find yourself wiping far more than expected. I would suggest running this dungeon at least once to experience it, but I don't see myself running this place for any reason, especially when you can run literally anything else faster and more productively.

    It has the same gear as AK? That kinda sucks.

    Last boss drops new stuff, saw a 2 piece BLM/SMN robe. It's also the hardest of the HM dungeons, apparently, so it's not your best option for farming Myth back to back. I haven't tried Copperbell yet but Haukke Manor seems pretty short, yet I'm not sure if it's speedrun-able. Pretty quick if you don't want to speed run WP, though.

    You also get 90 tomes if you land on PS or either of the HM dungeons, so I'd say that's worth it.

    Yea if you land on it for DR then sure, I'd say go ahead and do it. There may be new stuff, but last run I did a Peltast piece dropped. What I'm saying is though, that unless you get it on DR, then its probably not worth it.

    I guess its a question of what you prefer to do:

    - fastest dungeon to get myth as fast as possible.
    - get myth slower but have some kind of variability in the stuff you do.

    Sometimes being efficient isn't exactly fun.
