Pulling During Cutscene

[ForctyusGold]

firstly. sometimes it just happen. you dont look at your party if there is indicator theyre watching cutscene and youre going to fight with boss. i dont think many players just rush into boss arena without noticing some arent ready.

second. SE should rework some cutscenes in regular/msq 4 man dungeons. its okay to have relative long, but not long long ... at the start, but at the final boss , there shouldnt be any , or just that one which will present you that boss. i really hope SE will rework it , because waiting for people in TotoRak is just crazy. it can be 3-5 minutes and there is also that thing which can push you to the boss.

third. it happens and dont worry about it. like its bad , shame , it happens, but overall dialogs in dungs where is no barrier are just for nothing i guess. or i cant remember of how worthy those are.

fourth. well people got unskippable cutscenes in msq 8 man dungeons , so they can watch it calmly with others. i cant imagine how new players or anyway all people would react if they will be still in first cutscene and party will be around middle of dung lol

They're watching it calmly because that is what was advertised when you queued up for msq roulette. If you got it through mentor roulette is an entire different discussion.

The people who refuse to watch it "calmly" either don't queue or leave when they enter a dungeon from msq roulette.
And that is how msq was before and it made it confusing for new players so they upped the reward and made them unskippable.

Anyhow roulettes outside msq are 50/50. Sometimes you get someone whose new, sometimes no one is new.

I'll just add a note here that NOT all of the cutscenes are vieweable in the Inn.

Most.

Not all.

Any examples? This is new information to me. Have you looked under every tab?

Certain dungeon cutscenes cannot be viewed in the inn room due to them being tied to the MSQ that you could potentially be on at the time. They become unavailable to review after it is skipped, I can't remember the exact dungeons that cannot be viewed again in the inn room, but I can confirm that this is a thing. Which is probably why most people in this thread is defending cutscene watchers since some cutscenes can only be seen one time. I think its dumb that this can happen, but it is the way it is. Don't pull while people are watching cutscenes, but also on the other hand it is rude and downright toxic to attack someone personally for pulling early. A simple "hey, next time can you watch out for people in cutscenes?" would be enough.

Most dungeons have a 15-20 sec cutscene at the start. I'd have to wonder what's so hard about waiting that long.

I don’t think its the start of dungeons that’s the issue. Except I have a personal dislike for cape west wind. Thatcutscene is 10x longer than the fight. Its the pre final boss and waiting for loot cutscenes that can take a bit and have people standing around waiting. If 20 seconds an an issue, then yeah I get it

The pre-boss cutscene in Thousand Maws of Toto-Rak is about 2 minutes and 40 seconds. I know waiting around doing nothing is boring, but we're not talking about a significant amount of time in the grand scheme of things. I would advise: if you are so pressed for time that you literally can't stand for a dungeon run to take 2-3 minutes longer than is optimal, then don't queue in Duty Finder. Especially these days, what with all the new players coming to the game and the likelihood of being grouped with first-timers.

Depending how many players and what roles you're leaving behind while you get a head start on the boss, you're probably not even making up for much lost time anyway. Heck, I remember one time I was the healer of the party, and by the time I was out of my cutscene the tank was nearly dead. Imagine wiping the group to spite the newbies, all in the interest of "saving time."

Being an arse is not illegal.

Doesn't mean you shouldn't try avoid being one.

[Dogempire]

Yeah, why shouldn't we stop thinking of ourselves for one moment and start thinking about how other people feel when they're forced to skip a cutscene?
