Punishing the wrong people.

I think the penalty is fine. What they need to add is an option for the party to resign from the fight if it's just not working. There comes a point in every fail run where everyone is acutely aware that it's not going to happen, and everyone is praying that someone else will bite the bullet and take the 30minute lockout.

They actually announced a feature like this to be added soon, I think.

Yes, a group option to disband and quit the dungeon is coming in 2.2.

What would happen if they removed the penalty for leaving a duty:

I'm a tank and I feel like laughing at others' misfortune because I'm a terrible person. So I decide that I'm going to spend my evening finding groups on the duty finder and then leaving 1 minute after everyone loads in. Because I'm a tank and because there's nothing stopping me from doing it over and over again, I get to ruin several dozen people's evenings and fall asleep laughing at their cries.

It's important for the penalty to exist because griefers will always exist.

Penalty have a reason that's for sure
