Just when I thought DF couldn't get any worse...

all SE needs do to ensure the OP's scenario never happens again is make chests linked to a boss mob - meaning a chest that is linked to a boss mob can not be opened till the boss mob it's linked to is dead

all SE needs do to ensure no one passes trash mobs and goes straight to boss mobs is to make the boss mobs linked to the trash mobs near them - meaning a boss mob can not be engaged until all the trash mobs that are linked to it are dead

all MECHANICAL duty finder problems solved

for all "ATTITUDE" duty finder problems, SE is going to TRY to solve those by giving out "MVP" points to players whom get "voted up" by other players in duty finder

players may only "vote up" RANDOM players in duty finder - if players queue with a party, they MAY NOT "vote up" them - players MAY NOT "vote up" themselves, ither

every "vote up" will give a player an "MVP" point - there will be a CAP on how many TOTAL times players can "vote up" players PER DAY and players may only "vote up" EACH player ONCE per day

players can "vote up" other players for any reason they want to, but the working theory is that players will only "vote up" a player that is helpful and/or kind and never "vote up" players that are trolling and/or mean

"MVP" points can be spent on many items such as mounts, minions, etc...
