Problem is, people associate ilvl with skill (which is why a lot of PFs on my server are crazy high because they "want a win"*). So, because people want to get their run of something, they goose their ilvl to meet that. In most instances you can get away with it, but in others (like the EX modes), you get sniffed out pretty fast.
As far as the spiritbonding thing, I've run CT in crafting gear before AS a challenge. Running that dungeon in ilvl 92 gear gets kinda boring, so if I go in with a bunch of FC mates, and they have no issues with it, why not?
That said, DF is not a "find me a speedrun" service. Busting through dungeons as fast as possible is ehhh to me. But, MMO players I guess.
*Which I'll note these are usually the ones that end up dying in said run.
Did you actually run the dungeon? If mobs died and you all lived, then it isn't your business what he is wearing. Yes, its stupid and obnoxious for him to do that, but if you guys are easily able to clear the dungeon then it doesn't matter. Mind your business unless things go bad.
Flash costs MP, Riot Blade gives you MP back, New players then "put 2 and 2 together" without reading all of the tool tips. They don't use it for Enmity they use it because that one Flash they used made them lose MP.I sometimes check gear when I'm waiting. If the tank's failing on hate I look at their gear and if that's ok I then look at the combat log and find they aren't using riot blade instead of savage blade. I seem to spend so much time teaching people to tank these days. Why do more people think riot blade is for enmity all of a sudden.
It's kind of sad really
Yet another dude who thinks DF was made to please himself only.
Everyone have the same rights as you to play DF as they want. As long as the duty is done, slow or fast, you cannot complain.
We have enough threads complaining about PUGs. No need for more.
You need to learn how to read. He didn't say anything about a speedrun, he was simply annoyed that someone went into a dungeon in crafting gear rather than battle gear.

That's what I did assume at first but they never used flash. It feels like I have to school every pally in how to use basic pally functions. It gets very tedious. Yesterday in roulette we had a glad who just couldn't keep hate. We all tell him what to do and he doesn't. He suddenly decides he has to go and I 'tank' the rest as a Bard and we three man it well. Bard tank! OH, it was Tam-Tara. Grrr
You're right, if I want to watch an episode of Star Trek in between every single trash pull that is my right, I might also walk my dog after each boss because aerobic exercise is very important. Why can't the other 3 members be considerate of my needs?!
If you do that you are afk so you will get kicked lol. Now if you say wait a minute need to whatever and the group says ok well do you.
