This isn’t FFIX. You wanna be a cry baby ablut leavers, go play FFIX. If i get what I need, I’m probably not staying unless it’s a guild group.
I would be okay with this if they removed the 5% bonus per rando from the dungeon finder.
Otherwise no, deal with it. Its life
someone asked me for the trinket once, i said no
Uh… two things.
FFXIV has a strike system and a lockout timer for leaving. The very thing people are asking for here.
People left for FFXIV because during that time, FFXIV’s current expansion was extremely good and SL was pure garbage and people were fed up with the back to back horrible WoW expansions.
I read the title as “leveling” and I thought, “man we are all in trouble.”
I’ve played FFXIV for years and the only thing it has over WoW imo is a better new player experience and the games community itself.
Why do people want to hold other people hostage in their pug groups? You don’t like what is going on with ditchers = Form your own group, join a community to run things with, or join a guild to run things with. Stop expecting the world from random people. You are going to be upset every time.
And that is why problem makers like you should be removed from the queue.
Because you queued for group content? Its expected that everyone completes the run. If you don’t have the common courtesy to complete the run then don’t queue for group content.
Agreed, however, I do believe there needs to something done about these deserters that come in for one item and dip out if it does not drop. It’s getting excessive.
More like deserter should be redesigned so if you keep leaving dungeons before the last boss is killed, deserter increase by 25% or 50% and maybe make it account wide.
Sometimes real life happens, or power goes out or you can’t get internet back. You don’t want overkill on someone who stays for most dungeons but might have things come up every once and awhile.
And stuff like this is why WoW players are considered toxic. They want a pound of flesh for leaving a dungeon for WHATEVER reason.
That reason is petty, so they get acted upon in the same manner.
Its not unreasonable to expect people to be removed from a queue who repeatedly leave a dungeon.
Every dungeon should have its loot put into a chest that spawns after the final boss.
Xp tokens
Rep tokens
All of it in the box, dont finish the run? Literally get nothing.
No, you want the guys Banned from the game. "Got an emergency, leave group, come back, see you see a prompt “You are Banned from World of Warcraft Permanently”.
Random group is random
I don’t think the OP meant banned from the game, I think they meant banned from random group matchmaking if they continually sabotage runs by ditching early
Account wide deserter is a great idea
in what way does leaving a run early “sabotage” the run? the group waits 30 seconds for a replacement and then they’re good to go. how is that sabotage?
So my power goes out, I have an IRL emergency, I have to AFK a little to longer than my group likes. Your group just straight up sucks and you no longer want to carry their sorry butts. I should be punished even worse? When you want to punish people who ditch groups with more extreme measures you are also punishing people who have excuses to leave a group early.
I gave 3 damn good alternatives to random player groups. You choose to ignore then and go the PUG route. Stop trying to force people into your perfect little group ideals. I am here to enjoy the game just as much as anyone else. Luckily I haven’t done a pug group in a good 10 years. I refuse to enter that cesspool ever again. I joined a guild, I also joined a community in game., I also have 2 discord groups I will run with if my first 2 don’t have enough online. Sounds like most pug players are just to lazy to do this.
or crazy idea, make some friends, and only run stuff with said friends.
Now I offered 5 alternatives to running pugs LOL
