Speed Run + Timer

[Disturbed]

Do you guys want to know the real reason timers exist, and thus the implementation of speed timers? Because SE can't devote enough servers to each individual instance and can't have parties inside the instance for more than X amount of time otherwise other groups wouldn't be able to participate.

GG SE NO RE

Speed runs aren't a bad idea... I would just like to see alternative objectives also...
Like maybe a boss that can be completely skipped... but killing it makes an extra chest pop up after the Morbol...
or even 3 optional bosses throughout the dungeon....
It still would amount to a speed run though because getting to and killing the three optional bosses AND the Morbol in one hour run would require a lot of push, drive and skill



I was actually impressed that all classes were present... aside from a couple Mog deaths it was actually a very well done run....
The only thing I didn't like in the video was the way Midlander females run... I've hated it since launch...
Do you think you'll change race if given the option at 2.0?

I would love to be Viera.

And yeah, I sucked hard, I don't get to DRG often XD.

You didn't suck... Coincutter hits like a monster (I guess he actually is a monster) and swipe comes really fast

Im not gonna lie.. I was on the edge of my seat at the last second of it... 35:00 on the dot... priceless...
You can't plan it better than that

i'm sure that all the top linkshells and players can agree that speed runs are not our ideal situation and we'd like to see content handled differently.

y'all whining about jobs and all this other bullsiht are fcukin stupid and you're gonna get me banned from the forums again, thanks!

On being forced to class stack, it might be a whacky theory but I've found people perform best on jobs they like playing which usually makes runs go more smoothly especially after some practice and following directions.

Side derail: I was introduced to straight tanking Coincounter today, how reliable is using Featherfoot to avoid 100-ton Swing if anyone has tried it? Foresight was phenomenal so I'm curious about Featherfoot.

edit: Another question: In the future if my group gets good enough to Speed Run, do you need to fulfill the requirements for all chests in order to get the chest that has the "best items" or is it only the Speed Run chest that gives them?

[Nexxus]

Featherfoot is really nice, you can dodge almost 90% of 100T Swing, but if you don't, you die, so i dont suggest you to use it.

Only the speed run give the 5th chest, you can skip the others chest pop condition if your only interest if this chest.

[Estellios]

Thank you.

And that is nice about the Speed Run chest. It's seriously not a problem at the end of the day then since you will most likely get all you need from the other chests long before you get what you need from the Speed chest (although if your group is large it's understandable to want all of them to pop at once) and if you don't have to spend time fulfilling extra conditions you can save some time.

[DoctorMog]

I wonder if everyone realizes you don't have to get all 5 chests and a speed run.

You can get the speed run by itself you know.. skip another chest or two to save enough time to get the speed run chest.

For instance, skip the killing of imperials to shave off 5 minutes and get the speed run chest instead.

just sayin'

You also wouldn't have to go out of your way to get Spiked Armguard chests =P
