    In case someone in party has cleared for the week, the game will also warn you once you enter the instance with message like "<insert number> of 8 have completed the duty. The amount of coffer dropped will reduce to one (or zero if 4 or above have cleared)".

    I'm sorry for your loss but if you and the others with you ignored or failed to notice such warning from the game itself, the fault is entirely yours.

    You miss the point: it's a request for an additional optional button, not a "QQ we can't read"

    You sure? Cause the part of the post where you complained about only getting one chest certainly sounded like "QQ we can't read"

    Possitive. It was the reason behind the request - Also, not an intentional complaint, it's the cause of the post/request is all.
    Did I word it badly?

    Even with that option the party leader could mislead others (by setting it up after people who have already cleared for the week have joined, for example). The best change would be to change the warning to show for every single party member before entering the instance. Then everyone will know for sure how many chests there will be.

    That's a good point, or people could "invite friends" but surely, if a party leader themselves or someone pre-existing in the group make up has indeed clear it, the button could be unclickable, to prevent the deception. Whatcha think?

    On further thought, perhaps it doesn't even need an additional button, but a tweaking of a pre-existing button. For example the "Loot" selection could be adjusted for the Savage portion of party finder to lock in max number of chests.
    In opposition, "Duty Completion" could be adjusted to where it's not about the chests, but essentially just the book from completing.

    I like this idea! The current loot button has no function, it's simply descriptive. It could be changed to "Full loot" button, locking the group only for people who are entitled to 2 chests in the instance.

    To be honest though, I don't care what kind of a change they'll make, as long as the change means that party members don't have to blindly trust their party leader and fellow party members anymore.

    This particular text doesn't show until AFTER you defeat the boss; it does not show up when you zone into the instance. Unless they have changed it for 4.2, the only messages that show up at the beginning of a Savage duty is a bonus message, if someone has a bonus. But the "[number] out of 8 have completed this duty for the week. The number of chests awarded is 0-1" only shows up after the boss has been killed.
