    Forced stops in new 4 man dungeons

    Every single new 4 man dungeon in 2.4 has these now.
    From barriers not going down until you kill trash mobs beside it. Coffins that need to be activated before popping mobs or opening chests to pop mimics, THEN picking up an item. To large drops that force healing up before continuing.
    It's honestly awful. The new dungeons are absolutely full them. Some of the points are so bad that there's single packs of trash separating the barriers.

    I appreciate that SE doesn't want to make speed runs the only method of doing dungeons, but the sheer number of them in the new dungeons is getting ridiculous.

    Stopping one extreme with the other is a terrible idea.

    I'm enjoying the new tam tara hm very much, mostly because of the athmosphere but also because of the "no speedrun part"!

    Sure, that's your right to. The issue is that before there were opportunities for both sides.
    Now? You've got to do one and there's zero option for the other.

    Don't understand the problem. New dungeons are short and fun. Keep speedrunning Brayflox, oh, I forgot it gives less tomes now - how sad.

    Failing to see the problem here, sounds like a change for the best.

    How can something which prevents people from choosing how they play possibly be good?

    This is my issue, I've no problem with some forced stops, but the amount in the new 4 mans is too much. They've gone overboard.

    You're posting on the OF about a problem mostly created by the OF.
