Silver chest farming in PotD, harassed by speedrunners. (More ingored PvE harassment)

[Nixxe]

What about let people able to leave without penalty whenever they want, instead of kicking others?

I mean, the queue fills up fast, any problem comes out at first floor or alike and you dont waste too much time, it may be faster requeue than kicking, maybe you end up in a party at 9th floor, and who run for chests will see in and outs until everyone is there for chests. Win-win.

The queue doesn't fill up so fast that this wouldn't be disruptive if too many people opt to leave. Matched is matched. It's random. People need to accept that and not demand it somehow be every bit as effective as Party Finder would be for giving them control over who joins and what they do.

What you said, is gold. It's me that got dragged in all this nonsense. I need learn to ignore that.

I don't see an issue. On my dataserver, people run fixed party 51-60 over and over for speed runs. Matched for Silver chests.

Anyone who deviates from that gets vote kicked out. So if a speedrunner joins matched and sits in a corner, they get tossed out.

lol this is a crazy post. All I really got from this is I should be thankful I am on a smaller server....seems like lots of crazy/annoying stuff happens on these larger servers. Thats not to say my server doesnt have its share of aholes but I guess there is just a smaller volume of them...Getting to the point. Its all about compromise I have been in plenty of runs where I didnt have the same objectives as the rest of the party but you know what I go with it. Some times you need to just suck it up and move on...getting salty about a game that is supposed to be something you do for enjoyment/relaxation just doesnt make much sense.

Here on Aether, most runs 51-60 and 1-10 are speedruns, whether matched or fixed. You usually have at least one person standing in the cairn once it's active.

The best way to get chests is to keep going after those floors, because speedrunners start over from the beginning, which leaves only the non-speedrunners for matching. Queue times go up as a result.

If you just go with the party when the teleporter is open, you would sooner get to your next potd run and get more silver chests. But it seems you must have them now.

There is really no need to fully explore the whole area. You'll get more chances in the future.

This is something I feel people forget.

It needs to be pointed out first that even aside from exploding, the aethergear might not upgrade.

So rather then tunnel focusing on exploring every corner of each map for a silver chest, just pick the ones that are already on the way as you kill monsters to unlock the passage, clear the floor bracket and then re-enter a potd floor bracket again.

Focus on rate gain rather than flat gain.

Speedrunners on my dataserver at least have learned its much quicker to preform a group and simply knock out about a dozen 51-60's. In that same time doing it in a matched party you might get 6 runs if you're lucky.

The majority of people in matched are running for chests. I see the same people in 61-70 that were with me in 51-60 and all the way to 91-100. Queue times are never more than 5 min, even in the wee hours of the morning.

That's odd because we're on the same data center and 51-60 is mostly speedrunners.

That's because they know their place when I'm in the group. They do as they're supposed to or get booted.
