    Oh no, please. Noone should even PRETEND that going slower is fun. I udnerstand your hate for speedrunning, but ilvl sync will not stop speed running. Get rid of the sync, let the overgeared monsters destroy what they want to. Only thing that changes is how fast pulls die, that's just extra tedium

    Going slower = less stressful for some people = more fun; don't just assume everyone wants to go a million miles/hour.
    The best thing is to ask the group, really.

    Getting carried through coil is a lot faster than learning the fight yourself. Is it as fun? I sure as hell don't think so.

    Yes, going slower can be a lot more fun. Maybe not for someone who has done it 100 times, but it is for someone who's new. How can you have fun if your contribution is meaningless compared to everyone else's?

    I think I said this before but one run I did in SV we lost a player so while we were waiting for another I just happen to actually look around. The room we were in had a dead frozen dragon on the floor that appeared to have crashed through the roof. I was like hmm, never noticed this before as we always just sped by. I just thought it was a pile of debris. I pointed it out to the group and they all said the same thing, never noticed it before. Just though it was funny as always rushing through, wonder how much more I never noticed.
