    I am conflicted on how I feel upon reading this request, only because.... what if someone was carried by a seller? what if someone who was super bad at the fight and died maybe.... 5 times ended up clearing because their group was able to do it without x member? There are times when new players to content join and don't say anything but I've seen my fair share of 'experienced' players do poorly in some contents as well, some which at times were very outdated..... it just happens and it's a big gamble.

    If SE does this then I suppose it's not a bad idea, it may increase success rates by a lot but I don't think that this is just restricted to "Oh I got this awful first timer in my group" as opposed to "This person just isn't experienced to the point I'd like them to be for this fight" :x

    But all the same I wish you good luck with this proposal!

    Of course, that does happen but it would happen MUCH less often with this option. Again, people may know the fight, but when it boils down to it, a player should respect a party leaders rules, and if it says 'no bonus' and they haven't cleared they just shouldn't join without asking the leader. But thank you! It's appreciated

    There are no "perfect fixes", you just limit what you can. And that's what this would do, limit it, and in doing so, save oh so many peoples time. Everytime a PF falls apart from this issue, 8 peoples time is wasted, if you can eliminate it from happening 9/10 times, or even 2/3 times. That's a lot of time saved.
