Best way to farm tome?

Did you ever play FFXI? If you did you wouldn't be talking. It was a common practice then and is now, designed to be optional.

I was not aware of that. What is the point of the trash mobs then? I could be completely wrong, I am simply going on what I know and in most MMO's would be considered an exploit to be able to clear an entire dungeon without killing a single mob. If this is intended then so be it. I don't have a problem with skipping trash if it is intended.

It isn't "intended" its optional. You can fight through them all if you want, there is loot to be had throughout the dungeon by doing so if I recall correctly. People skip not to beat the timer stuff, but to farm tomes as best as they can as fast as they can.

Not to mention, the dungeon is a gear check for most people. Not everyone passes it easily. If you don't have good enough gear or tactics, you won't win and will need to go back and forth dodging the trash repeatedly which I have seen happen multiple times.

I understand the point I have just never heard of optional trash mobs for an entire dungeon lol. I was wrong then, if this was the norm in FFXI I guess it would be safe to assume this is not an exploit then and all trash mobs are optional. Good to know thanks for the info.
