People afking in Diadem

Hi !

So I've made two Diadem run and have been with one guy who didn't do anything during our main objectives. He just took his reward and stand in the missing gem.

Do you think this kind of behavior could be reported? Cause the guy litteraly wait us to do the job for him.

Working as intended.

What did SE really expect by incencitizing Diadem runs with 280 weapons that requires no participation in anything but the EMs?
Obviously people would just go afk until it spawns.

Well now what I'd like to know is if I have the right to report this guy for...doing nothing.
I don't know if it's a sufficent reason for GM to consider it?

They really screwed the proverbial pooch with diadem design. It's worse then the old failure. Forget 1 guy, entire groups go in to do the mission then afk for 40 min waiting to see of there is a emergency mission spawn. I've been in diadems where all the groups are doing this, no fates being done past mission.

Compelling game play. They should have tied emergency mission spawn to a % chance to trigger from fate completions, but nope. Heard they confirmed at pax emergency isn't tied to fates

You could potentially report him for being AFK. The question is, will they actually do anything about that? Half of Diadem is afk, are they all going to get banned? What would the GM say? If one person gets kicked or banned for this, I expect every single other person AFK to get kicked or banned as well.

You can see how that would go.

Honestly, you should report that if the player made no effort to complete the objective, if they went AFK after the objectives were complete that's one thing. Though to go afk and do nothing, that is a form of harassment and should be notified.

There's a difference though, think of it like 24 man raid content, would you report a player that enters the instance than proceeds to do none of the content? That's the scenario the OP is talking about. It's one thing to go afk after the objectives are complete but to AFK upon entry and do nothing to assist the party is a form of grief that should be reported.

If he had afk after the objectif, I wouldn't have done this topic to ask.
This is precisely because he didn't do anything during the main objectives and twice. Someone even asked him to come to help dps, no response.

Had the same thing happen in another run of mine. Really need a vote kick feature for this mode.

I asked near the NPC about how Diadem works, cause it sounded confusing to me. Someone actually said "Just go in and AFK until EM pops."
