Its wasted cuz you dont get super special prizes for having a lot of achievement points? i dont understand this lol. So you only played to get achievement points which never gave you any benifit, and they never said it would? You never played the game for fun?

Did you fail to notice the pretty sizable haste buff the fans give and the fact they launch you to predetermined points based on where they die?

I have had tanks that abused the fans to make speed runs faster by using big pulls in those early rooms to position to get launched to the other mobs guarding the door so that they do not have to run and instead instantly chain pull, and DPS that abused the haste buff to kill even faster and catch up to the tanks.

Why not just pull all of them including the ones guarding the door and burst them down and kill the enemies in an order to use the fan buff accordingly? I actually didn't know about that buff to be honest, hard to notice when its only in that first part of the dungeon for hp soaking enemies that don't really require going quickly when killing them.

Aquapolis is meant to be an added bonus you may get while doing maps. If they made it skilled based, it'd simply devolve into a new method people farm for easy gil. You're not supposed to get it every time nor make it to the seventh floor. Think of it like a free series of games at Las Vegas. You keep going until your luck runs out.

Depends on how good the healer is.

In general what I see is everything gets pulled up to the melia and burned, then hit the fan which plants you down next to the next fan where you pull it to the group guarding the door. Often times the fan dies pretty quick so you can hit it to refresh the haste buff, since it sends you right to the door (which it's right next to) there is no running to get back to where you should be. This also lets you enter the first boss with a ~10-15% haste buff.

Dungeon team has to be fired. Seriously, if you don`t take into account graphic models and enviroments, we haven`t had a new dungeon since 2.0...

trash, trash, (optional third trash pull), boss, trash, trash, (optional trash pull), boss, trash, trash, (optional trash pull), final boss.
(the same but larger for raids)
And bosses mechanics are basically simplified forgiving mechanics of older pieces of content.

Truthfully I think that's the best thing they could have done... If they put Palace of the Dead in with 3.3, everyone would probably be done already with no new content coming for another 2.5 months... Do I think Palace of the Dead will keep people entertained for 2 months? Probably not, but staggering out the casual content is the only option they have since no1 raids..

How dare you like things!
