Part I
-How many times do you do PotD (Floors 51+) in a week and how many floor brackets do yo do?
Lately, not at all. When I do run PotD, how I run it depends on what I am trying to get out of it.
If I am starting from 0 on Aether arms/armor then I will run 1-10 solo a few times to get a decent base. This happens very infrequently, but I've gone through it a couple of times on two different characters. These days even from a fresh start I can solo 1-10 in about 20 minutes, and this lets me get a decent amount of upgrades before I rely on strangers to do higher (lower?) floors.
If all I want is exp or tomes I will run through 51-80. There isn't much of a time variance in these floors and the rewards are the same across the board.
-Following the above question, how many people do openly speak up about wanting to speedrun and if so, which floor brackets do you most encounter them in?
Personally, I haven't seen anyone be vocal about it. I will see people who will just camp on the exit to the next floor when it becomes active, but I don't think I've seen anyone start a conversation about it.
-By that same note, how many people do openly speak up about wanting silver chests and/or explore all rooms and if so, which floor brackets do you most encounter them in?
I have actually seen this. It's my personal belief that running through the content faster is the best way to make everyone happy but most of the time I don't care what the group decides.
-From a scale from 1 to 5, with 5 being extremely satisfied and 1 being extremely unsatisfied, how would you rate your overall weekly completions of floor brackets:
A) 51-60 3
B) 61-70 3
C) 71-80 3
D) 81-90 3
E) 91-100 3
Part II
-When no one speaks up, list your main preferred or habitual style of PotD play
*Mixed speedrun, killing only what needs to be killed but pick chests if they're in the same room
-When someone requests any of the above playstyles, do you comply:
-If the majority also agrees.
-Do you request a preferred style in PotD? If so, how many times a week?
I don't go out of my way to insist everyone do it my way. I believe that even for the people who want silver chest upgrades the fastest way is to clear each floor as fast as possible and pick up incidental chests on the way, maybe stopping to grab the occasional easy chest in a side-room. But most of the time it's not worth arguing about.
-By that same note, how many times does at least one party member complies with your request in a week?
-Have you ever wanted to kick someone because they did not comply?
-Have you ever actually kicked someone because they did not comply?
N/A
Part III
-Do you have a pet peeve in PoTD, aside from what might have been mentioned in the previous parts of the questionnaire? If so, how do you deal with it?
People who afk for the majority of the content or who afk without saying anything.
-If you could improve PotD in anyway, pls check the following (multiple answers eligible)
*Exp increase
*Exp decrease
*Monster increase
*Monster decrease
*Increased silver chests
*Decreased silver chests
*Increased aethergear gain rate
*Decreased aethergear gain rate
*Easier progression
*Harder progression
*Other (pls explain) X
If they increased the exp I wouldn't complain but I think it's a fair amount already. As far as improving PotD I think the traps should be scrapped entirely and they should add randomized floor clear requirements. Rather than killing mobs until you've met the quota for the next floor to open up I'd like to see some more interesting ways to get the floor to open up. Kill a specific mob, Kill all of a specific type of mob, instead of randomly spawned mobs give us the occasional floor with only one mini-boss type mob. give us stuff to break up the monotony.
