What do you think of speed running dungeons.

I'd like a check box that you can tick for a speedrun in DF.
I'd definitely opt for a more relaxed run most of the time, because a fast run depends on people knowing what they are doing and working together as a group. DF often throws people together who simply can't do a speedrun smoothly.
Apart from that, it's also nice to have time to say something more than, 'Hi' and 'ty' to the group and to have time to open the loot chests, too.

I'd personally accept an extra 10 minute queue to save 10 mins in a dungeon, so I like that idea.

Most dungeons are structured so that there's plenty of time to restore TP/MP in between decently-sized pulls without having to stop. Notable exceptions include a few stupid pulls in Bardam's Mettle. Single-pulls are both TP and MP inefficient.

For me, it's not about speed, it's about maintaining a consistent flow, which usually results in doing things quickly.

All depends on the group and the dungeon. Someone mentioned goad earlier, which yeah is great... If the other dps has it slotted and uses it... Personally I have yet to get a goad from another dps from outside of my FC. And yes many dungeons are designed with gaps which serve to allow dps to regen in between. But I see a lot of tanks that just go boss to boss without stopping. Without a coordinated group with the right composition this is very innefficient. We aren't talking about FC only groups here with good players and good comps, we are talking about random DFs.

All depends on

But the fact of the matter is honestly wats the worse that can happen, you wipe do small pulls and finish the dungeon in thirty mins. I always big pull first , I aoe as a tank, I pop my invincibles always planning out hg, and maybe use living dead on drk or so. If we wipe then in the df what happens the dungeon takes 30 mins just as it would if we did small pulls from the start, you really lose nothing buy doing a big pull right off the bat. I dont understand this whole anti big pull thing when dps could just aoe as well as tanks instead of thinkin your gona kill packs by just single targeting one add and makin the dps do everything to me this is common sense I just dont understand how things go south.

It is fine for statics. You are trash if you ruin castrium and praetorium for noobs. And i dont understand the speed runner mentality of b.s.

So you rush to cap, run the same raids over and over as fast as you can so you can have cool looking stuff that makes noobs ask you where you got your cool stuff as you lobby rat near an aetherite hub and sit around complaining about boredom and lack of content.
Fail. These are people compensating for their bad real lives.
