People are already speedrunning Sohm Al (Hard)

I still don't understand why the DutyFinder doesn't have a selection for what kind of run you're looking for:
- Speedrun
- Casual
- RP
- Don't care

If you want the fastest queues, you say Don't Care. Otherwise, you can trade queue times for the type of run you really want to do.

Can see it now: Queue Speedrun, get 2 bards. Bard 1 spams single target attacks only, bard 2 refuses to use wander's. 2 minutes to kill first big pull, 1 minute in tank is out of cds, healers out of mp for nuking. Bard 1 "This is supposed to be a speed run, why are you in tank stance?," Bard 2 "Healers just healing, wtf"

Probably because every one of those besides "Speedrun" is really just "being bad at the game".

Que's would become ridiculous if we added all these sub-categories just to cater to a minority of people, if you are not speed running on EXPERT, then you are in the minority. Most people assume if your running one of the highest dungeons in the game you know how to play your class, almost every dungeon is the same when pulling large groups of mobs. There are very few exceptions, like bees in neverreap, where too many final stings can kill you.

My party always accommodates people who are new and speak up, but more often than not people pull multiple packs of monsters minimun.

Sohm Al was pretty easy. Got into that and the Wall a few hours after the servers had come back online. With both the dungeons my first parties had a tough time with the final bosses. More so at the Wall. "Final Boss" wooped us, we died at getting it to just under 50% lol. My first time running content without a guide for once, which was exciting, I really enjoy it haha. Paying attention to the boss abilities, figuring out what it's doing. Guess I'm just a nerd. xD

People will queue for "Don't Care" when they want to speedrun, it's faster after all. So this idea is pointless.

We were speed running it blind on patch day with my pre-made. We are all geared for savage and it's not hard.

I'd never kick someone for being new, but unless someone asks me to explain stuff, I'm pulling everything I can, and if I see someone is new, the ready check IS your chance to ask for mechs.

All this talk about people "speedrunning", and I still end up in dungeon runs where tanks pull one pack at a time with 40k+ HP, healers never enter cleric stance, and DPS do the damage I was doing in Neverreap. I'd love to always be in the groups that this thread brought up.

[Awful]

Usually for speed runs when I go on my drk I end up doing 50-60% of the dmg while my group does no dmg, healer is usually sitting there spamming heals while my bard is AFK feeding his cat and the drg is on the floor rolling around using Ring of Thorns.
