Make it so, if they don’t contribute at all at certain breakpoints of the boss fight; they get 0 rewards.
No XP. No drops. Nothing. Zero.
I’m sick of these leeching lazy scrubs sitting in a corner and diddling themselves while expecting rewards for showing up & doing nothing.
What I mean:
You take a randomized range (Say, 2-4) each time a World Boss is spawned; That’s how many 'breakpoints there are in the boss’s HP bar for that fight.
The ‘breakpoints’, are not even; They are literally just invisible markers on the World Boss’s HP bar. They always are set a certain percentage away from each other (Like, 15%) to ensure anyone who dies a few times does not miss out on a breakpoint.
Everyone in the battle has to damage the boss’s HP before each breakpoint is passed, or they get no rewards.
The breakpoints are invisible, BTW. It’s just internal tracking. So players can’t just hit the boss and run away to continue being no-life leeches.
The reason why the amount of breakpoints and their positioning are randomized is so people can’t figure out ‘I hit the boss once at 100%, 75%, and 50% HP’.
But let me give an example of how this would work:
Ashava spawns. The game rolls breakpoints; 3.
Now the game chooses, at random, how to place them: At 76%, 55%, and 34% HP.
Now everyone wanting to get rewards has to damage Ashava before her health drops below 75% HP, then damage her before her health drops below 55% HP, and then again for 34% HP. And, of course, also before she dies at 0%.
It would affect literally no one who’s fighting the boss.
And I will reiterate: The breakpoints are invisible and randomized so leeches can’t learn them. The only way to ensure you don’t miss out on rewards is to fight the boss & contribute from beginning to end!
Also: “What if you die!?” Well, unless you die so much that you can never harm the boss between breakpoints; you won’t have to worry.
And if you die THAT MUCH; you were not contributing.
Something needs to be done about these AFKers showing up, taking up space, and contributing less boss damage than a harsh fart.
In Guild Wars 2 anyone in a specific area shares in credit for various events. However, I believe that each person must contribute a minimum percentage of damage in order to qualify.
This allows those on the lower end of the damage meter to still get credit while limiting those who just park their characters.
What’s the matter you are too weak to carry leechers?
Do you know some of us can 1 shot world bosses? The system proposed sounds great but impractical in reality, you can gimp yourself of rewards from instances with strong players either 1 shot or kills it way too fast for some of you to tick damages.
Well it can be annoying for people to get rewards when putting in no effort, but that’s why you make you to get them killed so they have some annoyance as well.
I made a video with me just “cheering” people on during as boss fight, then claiming rewards, because I wanted to outline how ridiculous the system is.
It is not just World Bosses but any shared event with other people, like Helltides or Legion. There are no rules to the drops.
They should absolutely correlate to effort. Or else you get the predominant leech mentality. Not talking about grouped players, that is agreed to within the group.
I decided not to post the video, as I did not want to seem like I was trolling.
Ah yes, because it’s my fault they’re lazy and expect rewards for diddling themselves.
I care when they impact my game and my ability to kill said world boss.
I’ve had afkers in every one I’ve fought.
I had FOUR in the one fight I could get too during the beta, which completely ruined my attempt to get Ashava’s Tooth.
It’s almost like they are the selfish pricks for showing up and not helping.
So the flip side of this, while I do agree about no effort leechers, is no matter how many I have in my World Boss fight, I still have yet to lose on this season because of them. So that may be your level holding you back.
Easy fix… you cant acces the tier dungeons if you are not 50 for tier 3 and 70 for tier 4. Really sucks seeing lvl 30 leechers at t4 event doing nothing just leeching exp. This should be stopped really fast
