Anti-Speed Run Mechanism

[Veurr]

A new player is going to be treated badly by veteran players in a group finder regardless of what sort of run is happening. But my biggest issues with new players in dungeons are A. They aren't up front about it and B. They don't listen. If someone takes the time to lay out a strategy for you. Just listen ask questions by all means but don't stand there and argue for 15 minutes.

Also before you call for nerfs to speed runs let me lay a little math on you. In order to achieve a full set of darklight gear not counting accessories, you need about 3650 tomes. So 45 runs of AK or 36 of Castrum/Praetorium. The average speed run takes 20 minutes. So even going as fast you can you will have to run AK for around 14 hours to complete yout darklight set. You will then have to continue to run it around 8 times a week to cap myth tomes. With full party dungeon queues capping out around 20 minutes do you really want systems put in place that would triple the amount of time runs take?

With me, it wasn't even a case of my own error. Literally, I got asked if I was new, I said yes, party ran off without saying anything, didn't tell me one bit of strategy, and raged at me for getting it wrong. Oh you wanted me to die there to lose aggro? Then tell me? Rather than shout at me for staying alive? Oh, now you're angry I returned whilst half the party is dead? Could have told me that it was part of the strategy to pull mobs, die to lose agro then res. I had no clue at all what was going on by that point. And then the party lost to the boss and I was shouted at for not returning straight away, despite being told off the last time. To me, that was contradictory commands, all told in hindsight, and I got completely slated and spoken about between party members right in front of me just because I couldn't read their minds. This is not the mentality I want to ever face again.
