    Necro Thread Activated!! Speed Runs Rule!! Seriously though, I do believe forcing ppl who can't handle/ not used to speed runs to do them is wrong and unefficient due to possible wipes, but Speed runs are a much faster farm and a way to challenge you an your friends with very linear content after you've done it too many times XD

    Speedruns are just the way things are DONE. You either do a speedrun, or you're bad at the game. There is no in between. If you're not doing the speedrun strat, you are being inefficient. It's no different than seeing an "ice mage". And yes, healers, this means you are expected to DPS. Nobody wants to be in fractal for a half hour. You lose nothing by going faster. If you wipe, you ALSO lose nothing. So suck it up and get better at the game so they don't have to nerf dungeons even more.

    Speedruns are great. As a healer I love big pulls if the tanker know how to use CDs. It's sad to see tankers pull a whole room and not use a SINGLE DEFENSIVE CD. It's frustrating to see dat warrior trying so hard to DPS, and then I need to keep healing him every GCD or he is cut in half like a piece of paper while I could be doing much more DPS than him. Other than that yeah, it's nice.

    I respect tankers that would prefer not to, tho. I'll not force it. But I think they should try, at least one time, if we wipe it's fine, I'll be happy that you at least tried. I think most people that "hate" speedruns are just having anxiety, they are scared of big pulls and wipes. But really, it's not that hard.

    And PLEASE, PLEASE whenever you see that there are two packs REALLY close together (i.e: the two packs of 2 after the first boss in Neverreap) pick them up. It's frustrating to be in a party as a WHM and two BLMs and the tank doesnt pick the pack that is literally on his side. I'll not pick them up for you, but I'll be silently judging you.
