Need penalties for abandoning M+

Community General Discussion

Just had a tank quit M+7 after 1st boss. He died twice, but we weren’t doing that bad. Worst part, I specifically listed the group saying I don’t care if we don’t time, just want to complete. He leaves anyway. Says, dude, bad lag 999ms…wtf?

Players who leave M+ need a spanking. If you join a M+, Blizz should make it where you can’t leave until the timer runs out. Don’t think you like your group, think you won’t make it or somebody sucks? Too bad. Don’t PUG if PUGs aren’t up to snuff for you.

There needs to be penalties.

Going to agree with this. If you intend to leave, don’t join. You’re screwing over 4 other people.

No, they don’t need to leave.

If you enter a M+, that should be a commitment to run the key. You should think about whether you like your group before entering. If you don’t like the idea of being “locked into content” then don’t M+

if they do that, then no one will do keys and they will kill M+

Had a guy - tank / his key say he didn’t care to time it (like 2-3 weeks ago on a +10). We wiped on 2nd boss in plaguefall and dude said he had to go eat lunch.

Like - you’re a prot pally just hit bubble between chews.

you’re talking to a raider.

while I enjoy M+ it is a side activity for me. if it dies…it dies. i don’t want that, but I’ll live.

That’s fine. Don’t run M+ if you don’t like it. You’re not being forced to enter M+, but if you choose to, you should be UNABLE to leave.

when doing alot of 10-15s u want to maximize ur gear chance. unfortunately sticking out a key wastes alot of time. so leaving is generally a better option

Nah, they will just troll to circumvent the punishment and then get reported for griefing :slight_smile:

Anyway if anyone wants their precious time, inspect the group and leave before it starts. Save me the trouble of adding someone to my black list and everyone else’s night being sour.

Haven’t looked you up on RIO but after a certain number of keys you start to realize some groups are just an utter waste of time.

If its a group of abysmal players, especially on a tyrannical week, its not worth the time investment to stick it out.

M+ loot drops are already dumpster tier, wasting an extra 10-25 mins for a 1/5 loot chance is not it

Guess what happens when you leave a key 10 minutes in?

You waste time. You wasted time finding a group, getting to dungeon, and 10 min in the dungeon. You got nothing for it. So you’re not maximizing anything.

Also, we’re talking a +7. If you’re doing a lot of 10-15s, you’re not doing a +7.

If you force people to stay, they will either just sit at the entrance doing jumping jacks or suddenly have a ton of “oppss, did I pull those” moments.

There is no ideal solution to this situation, you either roll the dice in PUGs or you make friends out of the people you have runs with and end up building a group you trust.

So then don’t join group that specifically says that it wants to complete even if not timed. Like…read the description first, if that’s not too hard for you.

Don’t bother. RIO is in the dumpster right with the loot. Garbage.
