    Considering your opposition to the "we need a level cap for the R25 dungeon" was that you didn't want any restrictions to the way people play, it's kind of odd seeing that you are now perturbed over a particular way that people play now.

    There actually is strategy in this. If you are running the dungeon as a sub-R50 class, then your party is probably just doing the dungeon for SP, and therefore killing all the mobs.

    However, if you are in a party of all R50s, there really is no point to killing stuff for SP, and instead the strategy becomes a race against time. It is actually fairly hard to trigger all the circles, despawn all the mobs, and run to the bosses without suffering any casualties. It takes a lot of coordination and planning.

    I would imagine that in play-testing they found that forcing players to kill everything got a bit tiring after the 20th consecutive time, so instead they turned it into just an option.

    Remember now, what Yoshida said about "multiple ways to complete a dungeon".

    There are rewards for killing everything, if you choose to do so.

    edit: the way I typed my post makes it look like I'm responding to BloodLotus, but I'm actually responding to TheVedis.
