Please take the penalty for leaving a dungeon out...

[Crica]

Yes, you have to suffer.

Thats the price you pay for using DF over a Free Company/Server LS Group. You dont get to pick who you grp with, and its where all the guild rejects go. (I use it myself sometimes, I just accept the grp and power through because any serious runs are done with my FC or a server LS grp.)

hahahahaha!!! i wish i could like this post a million times....

the truth will set you free!!!

ty for the lol!

Well, duty finder was a horrible idea upon conception. It was exactly what people wanted; to be able to solo mode an MMO. I have take 2 jobs to level 50 w/ out doing one single event with any of my friends. YAY!! It's working as intended. Thank you whiners.

ohhh because going into a dungeon with 3 stranger is not doing group stuff? for you an mmorpg must be play only with friend? seriously?
an mmorpg is a tool for meet people and communicate with people while doing something... but well people seems to forget it.

to the op, the communication is part of the challenge of the DF if something do go right explain it without begin to trash talk and normally 70% of the time you will succed.

You defeated the exact point you were trying to make right about here.

Because the Duty finder does everything in it's power to make "Meeting people" Pointless right up to the point where you will never meet those people ever again. Huzzah!

Agreed that Df is ASSSININE to say the least.

Old WORKING MMO mechanics don't seem to be in nowadays though.

I really haven't had too many problems with people just dropping party, since my brother and I are tank and healer (so DPS can rage quit if they want, they're not exactly hurting us when they're easily replaced) but it has happened, and I'm of the mind if you're so impatient and biased about dungeon running then you shouldn't be doing them or should find friends to do them with.

Yes groups can suck sometimes. And some people are just unable to be taught. In those cases, sometimes it's better to just eat the 15 minute penalty and leave. But under no circumstances should that penalty be removed. It is there to discourage people from dropping, and it's somewhat effective, given the fact that so many people whine about it here on the boards. Too many people don't give the group a chance.

Just remember you are not required to sit in your inn and wait for the window to pop up. Craft, fish, gather, farm, Fates, leves, hunting logs. And if you don't like any of those things, you should really be playing a dungeon running game like Phantasy Star or something instead.

If you're going to leave over things as small as your healer not following an unnecessary rotation, you deserve to wait 15 minutes.

You're going to have to weigh the negatives. If the group is so bad that it's worth leaving and waiting 15 minutes, then leave. If It's not, then stick it out and deal with their imperfection.

If you play a tank or healer...or...you know...make some friends...have patience to do things with people (most don't, they just want theirs NOW, which is why duty finder appeals) - then you don't have long queues.

I tank, run with a healer and bard, and we have instant queues for everything. Easy.
