Dev Reponse to EXP Increase in DungeonsFollow

I'm very pleased with this news. I'd much rather run dungeons for xp than Fates.

I just hope they have accounted for the increase in instances that is likely to result from these two changes. Otherwise we may be looking at another wave of 90000 errors.

I'll give SE the benefit of the doubt, though.

does this mean I could potentially run the Manor or Cutters Cry and be getting my Myth and Philo cap?

Limited to once per day per category, though.

That's how I read it.

Hopefully this is implemented right... if the tomes/hour don't match up, the speed runners will all just ignore this.

And this is a problem how? Let those asshats stay in prea and CM..ill gladly run lower level dungeons to help people out and get tomes for it. They probably won't like it anyway cause they might have to actually talk and help someone.

I wonder why the once-per-day limit.

Wouldn't it be beneficial to have people doing this all the time to fill DF groups?

Yeah I kind of wonder about this also, In WoW, you got an initial reward for your first random, like lets say 20 tomes for arguments sake, cause I really cant remember what it was, and then 10 tomes for every random after that. Although that was for heroics where you were getting tomes in the dungeons on top of the rewards which made it more worth while to run random dungeons in the first place. Unless they plan to start handing out tomes for running low level dungeons, I don't see anyone doing this more then once a day, at least for the story mode dungeons.

Its so weird to me how they took so many things from other MMO's but missed some of the things that to me seemed common sense, or at least seemed to work, Like having Heroic, or Hard Mode, versions of all their dungeons that reward Tomes, thus not having everyone limited to running WP/AK or CM/Prea for Tomes. HM Manor or Brayflox would be epic IMO.

No limit would definitely increase the speed of getting parties for every dungeon.

I think any limit in place is for the other possible side of the equation?

People stop doing the harder dungeons as often for tomes,etc and spam the easier ones.

The Irony is: SE was moving away with it for XI but other MMOs does once a day/week stuff so of course ARR has to. It makes little sense since myth wise you're capped to 300/week as is.

Lol... Then we should all end up in Titan then no?

With there being so many dungeons, and considering the time it takes to create them, they should be made a staple activity. Keep tombs, keep rng drops, but add a token system reward for all dungeons to trade in for gear, vanity items, crafting mats, ect. Provide a wide array of rewards to appeal to different play styles and that will provide incentive for people to run that content.

Of course, you could do that now. But people won't do it if there's no reward for it. That's just a fact of how MMO players work.
