People afking in Diadem

[Reinha]

So I flew around, purple worm happened, yay, then at 30min I left. I'm glad emergency did not happen cause I was not going to help people like that in any way.

Think on the bright side. When people go afk after objectives thinking that's productive, you can just drop group and queue again and finish another set of objectives while your previous group gets nothing done in the next half hour. You spend the same amount of time inside Diadem but reap twice the rewards. You also leave the afk people with less than a full group which isn't going to help with a potential EM pop.

Almost every run now is some kind of horror story for me, but last night was a gem.

Why do you want to farm boxes anyways? You only get 2-10 damaged boxes per fate and you need 40 to turn in, if you want loot you're better off leaving and reentering at the 30 mins mark so you get 10 guaranteed loot boxes. 10 guaranteed boxes = 400 damaged, and you won't get 400 damaged farming fates, so you get far more loot just doing the mission over and over.

Looks like it is working as intended then?

How do you get 10 guaranteed? I only got some steel tokens when I did a matron run yesterday. No loot boxes.

I wish there was a kick feature for the people who afk the entirety of diadem. Like, if you want to be useless after we finish the mission, sure fine. I'm annoyed but at least you helped with the main objectives.

People who don't contribute out of the gate still get rewards after the rest of the party slowly slogs through the mission without them. Its not fair and theres no way to get them out of your group.

Fury mission gives you 10 boxes when completed.

Matron is for gatherers, you have to do fury if you want loot, spam fury every 30 mins and you can get yourself a few i265 pieces.

This is something they should address, missions are the main thing in Diadem, people who do participate should be reportable or they should not get any loot.

Ah, I didn't know this. Someone just said to do that one cause EMs seem to spawn more often there. I'll try Fury then. Thank you.

I'm bored, it's new, gear for alt classes, still need hunting hawk, whatever. If the entire party grinds fates, you can build up quite a ton of damaged boxes. If multiple parties grind down below together, double that. And I did leave at 30 min, if we could just leave after mission completion without penalty I would have gone then but I didn't feel like eating the penalty just cause my party was a jerk.

My arguement is mostly: So you want to do the EM, okay I get that. But you need a lot of cooperating people to finish it. So how about you work as a GROUP just a little? Cause if you hold me hostage doing nothing for 15 min, you're not getting squat from me if EM pops. I have my relic, so the little boost in stat from the diadem weapon isn't crucial to my existence.

I really hope they do. In one run I had 2 dps immediately park themselves on NPC island. Even after the other healer switched jobs we struggled through the entire mission, and leaving wasn't an option because of the 30 minute lockout

Actually there is no penalty (lockout) for leaving after the mission is done (sack spawns and you get your loot). The only thing is the 30 min cooldown on entry that might still be counting down since runs average 10-20 min so you would have to wait to requeue.
