A Deep Dungeon Possible Issue

[Kai_Lee]

if you choose in progress on your duty finder it will indeed send you to a potd in progress instance, happened to me a few times now , once even in the middle of the last 50 boss fight, meh easy item at the end at least lol

Is this true, can someone confirm this?

Does it save as you leave the instance thru the portal or will it also save if you choose to leave but after the boss is dead? If so you could leave on floor 50 but not screw anyone over.

It prompts a question "do you want to save now?" when you leave through the exit after the last boss. Not sure if it's possible to leave without saving after the boss is dead.

Is this true, can someone confirm this?

I've had a person leave the group and got a replacement in matched party mode.

Just need a aetherpool chest to spawn after each boss with guaranteed boost provided you meet the level restrictions.

This.

I would hardly recomend you that dont do this, stoping the progress of random party memmbers is a great offense and it could have serious consequences.

1. It's not against ToS, so no consequences. 2. Blame developers, not players. Palace is even more boring and mindnumbling than Diadem. Of course everyone wants to get thier weapons asap and never come back. 3. You are such a nice person. If we ever meet, I'll be sure to mess with your "progress" somehow. Just for the sake of it.

Either a guaranteed +1/+1 for clearing 50 or the ability to trade in Potsherds for a +1 to either Arm or Armor would probably do the trick, since clearing 50 does give you a Potsherd as it is.

Right now, when you've got only one or two levels to go, and you're staring at a level 49 run in which you got no upgrades...it really does make either wiping or leaving more attractive than doing the whole two-hour slog through floors 1-40 again.

I'm all for something to counter RNG, even if its small. I like this idea of guaranteed +1/+1 for clearing, its at least some incentive.

If you do that I will report you, just how I did last time.
I repeat, GM showed up inmedeatly and gave me the full reason and that my report was justified.

Its more easy to just leave and eat penalty, so that way we can wait for orther people to join, dont you think?

Well if you're stating something along the lines in the game, then it immediately falls under the lines of griefing. They should've just left and took the penalty timer to avoid getting a warning on their account. Or used skype or something outside of the game. Very stupid on their part.

To honestly handle not just this issue but all dungeon leaving issues in general, they should just have a stacking leaving penalty like Smite has. If you leave during a match, you're marked as deserter and get the normal 30min penalty, but if you do it again then the penalty is multiplied by 4 I believe, so 2 hours then 8 hours etc. To make it worse, they could add the consequence of how Archeage does their jail time which is creates a period of time that the character has to remain online while in jail, so if you get 4 hours, you have to stay logged into that character for 4 hours until its gone.

Off topic, but I find it really hard to concentrate on your post with that sig. It's too fast/busy and keeps drawing my eye.

Changed it for ya Miss Mean Bean Machine.

What do you select under Duty Finder for that? Leveling?

Oh crap lol. Kinda sounds like Wizardry Online with its jail mechanic for PvP killing innocent players. XD

my main concern is that u better get your weapons asap or u are doomed ,what will happen in a few when no1 is doing DD anymore ? =s , the place is far from soloable , and is a pain in the rear to solo it ...if SE want to fix something fix that ...because it was supposed to be a 1 to 4 man ....

Agree 100%. The time limit is too short as well, though most of the issues with solo mode can be fixed with scaling. tried soloing floors 11-20 on my blm and ran out the timer when I reached the boss. This could be easier if I have 30-30 aether gear but I didn't try it, may do so my next playthrough though.

i wanted to solo that place at my own pace...but solo is just isnt worth , the mobs and the bosses are the same , no matter if u go as 1 or 4 ....is more challenging , yeah and more infuriating ...solo needs less mobs , more time and being able to self rez once on cairn every 5 floors / 10 floors? , oh bosses i guess are impossible to solo on half the jobs... they hit hard , if u go as 4 dps isnt that bad since u burn it down...1 tank 3 dps , or 1 heal 3 dps is ok too no issues
