    Linkshell for slower dungeon runs?

    I'd like to see if there exists a linkshell geared toward people who want to do slower dungeon runs, and if not if there is a desire for that on this server. Although FCs can be great for finding people for dungeon runs, often people want to speed through them or folks aren't available or they just don't have any interest in lower-level dungeons, and that's perfectly fine. Sometimes it's nice to interact with people in other FCs, or no FC at all. And for those not in an FC this might give them an option for finding groups if they want to go at a slower pace without having to rely on DF, which seems to always involve fast dungeon runs. The xp bonus is nice, but sometimes it's also nice to stop and smell the roses and admire the scenery or just talk about tactics, especially for people who haven't been through a specific dungeon before.

    This would be geared toward people at any level but not end-game content.

    Is there any interest in such a linkshell if it doesn't already exist?

    I'm fairly new to the game, but having a great time on my noob lvl 36 pld. I'd love to go at a slower pace, to get the pulls down and get a few pointers from more experienced players. Feel free to hit me up in game if you find any like minded people as I'm very interested in a linkshell like this =)

    I would definitely enjoy being part of that type of linkshell . I just started playing about a month ago and I am also new to MMOs so I would appreciate a slower pace.

    I'm always up for dungeons that son't skip optional areas. If this forms, I'd love to be in it.

    I have a REALLY bad memory as I forgot I had created this thread (and was reminded by someone who contacted me in-game), but I'm still interested and am glad some others are. I'll create the linkshell this weekend and will try to contact the people who posted. Name suggestions for the linkshell would be appreciated.

    Although my memory is bad, the chances I'll forget about this by the weekend are probably rather slim. lol

    Not sure if you created a linkshell yet, but I had a couple thoughts for names.

    Going along with what you said about stopping and smelling the roses, there's an expression, "gather ye rosebuds". It comes from an old poem and it basically means to "seize the day", but it can also be taken to mean, "To enjoy life's immediate pleasures; to behave in a relaxed, carefree manner". So, maybe something like "Gathering of Rosebuds" or "Rosebud Gatherers"? Not sure if that's too girly-sounding though lol.

    Something else like "Star Gazers" also has the same sort of sentiment as stopping to smell the roses.

    And finally, "The Dungeoneers". But that sounds kinda lame to me lol. Although, "Dungeoneering" doesn't sound too bad.

    Linshell Group

    Hello,

    I created a linkshell group just for such a purpose. I really just wanted to have the time to enjoy the story in the dungeons and learn some techniques without feeling like I am holding back the group. If anyone is interested my game tag in the game is Jocie Burgers. Please look me up as I really would love to play with like-minded people. I have been playing on my own for awhile. New players are very much accepted.

    I'm really glad that other people would like something like this, and I'd be happy to join one or both of the mentioned LSs!

    Like DelBell, I'm new to MMOs, and while I'm really enjoying it, for now I don't like doing dungeons at the standard fast pace you tend to get with the DF. As a DPS, I don't hold much sway over group play, and I understand that people don't want to slow down for a dungeon they've done a ton of times. At the same time, I come out feeling like I don't really know what happened, just a bunch of running and punching, and it's hard to learn anything that way. I would love to have time to take a breath, explore, process what's going on, and maybe even chat about it a little as we go.

    Thanks for posting about this!

    Hi Jocie! I'm really glad you created a linkshell! I've tried to look you up a couple a times this week, but haven't had any luck catching you online. I'd really like to join the linkshell!

    Hi Hachi! I feel exactly the same way you do! When I leave a dungeon, I often feel like I haven't learned it properly because of the fast pace.

    Feel free to add me, guys! My game name is now Delphina M'eraluna.
