Punishing divas who jump ship before a dungeon even begins.

Be happy that they ate the penalty for you so you can get out of those awful dungeons lol. Consider the fact that even with a DPS queue time you'll be back in another dungeon before they can even re-queue.

That said, I've noticed it's more common to see DPS drop than tanks... healer drops are pretty common on AV, and I don't blame them at all. That place is probably the absolute least fun thing in this game for a healer.

Steps of Faith does need some attention though. They need to either nerf it again or apply some kind of permanent bonus to it.

What? I've beaten it twice now where we completely missed all of the Dragonkillers. It's so faceroll easy now--another nerf isn't needed.

Back to the topic at hand: there's already a 30 minute penalty in place. As someone said, it doesn't matter what the penalty is, because if someone wants to leave, they'll surely leave... or just not que in the first place.

No disagreement here that a nerf is not needed from a difficulty perspective, however the problem is that SoF is the final and biggest hurdle for a lot of players trying to get into HW, and there is enough stigma against it that you get people dropping as soon as bonus pops up (and sometimes even if it doesn't.) If it were any other piece of content I would say it doesn't matter, but it's kind of unique.
