Yeah shame about that timer or else you could have an entire nights worth of RP in a dungeon and really flesh out a story

I wish the developer's added a dungeon creator program/plugin for the game so we could build our own dungeons in our downtime and play them just for fun. Would also be really useful for the RP community if they ever want to run a unique dungeon.
Plenty of people run IC dungeons. I personally have never been part of a IC group that has done one though.

It is definately a thing. I would suggest though that you need to overlay your story on it and maybe provide your own description. There are also some mechanics around making it more realistic and not just speed running through. The aim is to RP, not complete the dungeon.

Amazingly done Nebbs! I looked through your GM notes and it looks like it would be a blast
At least now I have something to reference when I build my own adventure.

If you mean the 90 minute count down, that's just how long you have till the bonus rewards are revoked. It doesn't kick you from the instance when the timer runs out.

RE: Using Dungeons for RP - Chlodomer - 11-05-2014
Don't go afk is one advice I'll give you, it'll boot you out automatically.
RE: Using Dungeons for RP - DreamedReality - 11-05-2014
Now I'm really curious... Hm... I also know from several personal experience that the 90 min timer would kick you out once it's done counting down. But it hasn't happened for a few patches. Might test later tonight unless someone else pipes up with something before hand.
RE: Using Dungeons for RP - Chillsmack - 11-05-2014
It definitely used to when I was playing after 2.0 release. I'd love to know if that's no longer the case!

It's always kicked you out... which was why I was so vocally against the instance timer in the past. Makes me a sad roleplayer.
RE: Using Dungeons for RP - DreamedReality - 11-06-2014
Yep. Just tested it out. It will kick you at the end of the 90 mins. Thank you Jancis, Vaughn, and Z'enath for helping to test it out.

RE: Using Dungeons for RP - Kyatai - 11-06-2014
I have yet to RP a dungeon here in FFXIV... but have often thought about it. I used to RP dungeon runs in Rifts, though, and it was a ton of fun.
I miss it... and would LOVE to give it a go here in ARR. This game creates such lovely Dungeon environments!!!!
Could you imagine some big RP event held in ST? After clearing everything... anyone know if you could go back 'downstairs'?
RE: Using Dungeons for RP - DreamedReality - 11-06-2014
I don't know if you can backtrack in ST. Without dying anyway. But! I'd advise not clearing the last boss if you plan on backtracking in any dungeon. Since after you beat the last boss there is that 5 min timer before the instance boots you. Regardless of what the overall timer had been at.
