Once again screwed in a dungeon!

Not that I have any illusions of this ever being implemented, but I think the ideal "solution" for this behavior is to change the current reward high level players get for running low level content to work as follows:

100% clear dungeon: X tomes
Finish dungeon: X/2 tomes

Word it as you wish, but basically get 2x tomes if you cleared the whole thing, or half as many if you just skipped optional spawns and rushed to the end. It would be up to whomever implemented it to decide if they want to implement such a thing by lowering the current clear reward or just adding a bonus on top if they take their time to clear.

Oh and while at it: if someone in the group is still watching a cut scene mid dungeon, don't let the group proceed into the boss fight!!!

This so, so, so much. When doing Main Scen on my dps or healer, I feel pretty bad whenever a new guy/gal has the story ruined due to speed running tanks or other players who run and pull the boss. Sadly, two people speaking out each time doesn't do the trick.

They should implement it so that the boss will not spawn until all members are across the purple boss area line. There are still people that play on the PS3 and people that wish to watch the story. So yes they will take longer and load slower. If no boss spawns till all members are there, it's no longer a issue. I've seen people get stuck outside the boss fight due to this and have to wait till the party cleared the boss. It's not right. Also, this should be put into place for the elevators.

I love this idea, I am surprised I have not seen it earlier on these boards. Everybody wins.

Well... that is one of the bad choices SE made to keep older content "fresh" buy forcing ppl via quests to do stupid dungeons all over again, up to a point where ofc they are pissed and want to get it over with.

Correct me if I'm wrong, since I am quite the noob to this game (to the point where I am not even sure what tomes are, other than it being some currency used for end game gear,) but are there no other ways to earn those tomes? My understanding is the tome bonus is there to encourage them to do something they would not do otherwise, but that is not the same as being forced. You can always go do your extreme raids to grind those tomes.

I agree with this whole heartedly.

That's a great idea.

I ran Satasha (story) more than 30 times and only once a experienced player (as tank) asked if people wanted "speed or full" run.

I have no problems with speedruns (but, personally, I don't like much), but I think it's somewhat selfish to do a speedrun when the party has players doing the dungeon for the first time.
