What is SE going to do about people that AFK in Frontline?

To be fair the main issue is locking rewards behind it. The PVP battle pass takes an incredibly large amount of time to complete. It's around 3 months of Frontline roulette every day to complete it. So when people only want the rewards you're gonna have to deal with them the entire season. They clearly don't want to be there but want the rewards. Personally I would massively reduce the PVP grind.

Other than that just report them if they are AFK and try and give them the toe. Not like it matters anyone, as most of the people playing frontline haven't a clue what they are doing anyway. It's usually a FFA. Flames winning? Let's attack Adders. I would't worry too much about it.

If there are no rewards on doing something, then less people are going to bother to do so. If you take away season pvp,exp and achievements from pvp/frontlines then nobody its going to queue for it ever again.

If people are doing something that isn't fun in a game they are paying for then why are they playing?

so how would you deal with someone who is new to FL, and is not AFk, but gets lost and gets frequently obliterated since they're out of position? No credit? Or someone who gets frequently focussed? Or someone who may legitimately be guarding an objective at various points?

Which is not say that it's possible to identify really suspicious cases, and I have seen some, I'm just saying that I would rather than it gets interpreted by someone in the context of the match rather than being applied as a global rule because that could unfairly penalize people, as much as I don't like people botting as above or being AFK,

This is a major point. On my dragoon I regularly win matches by preventing caps on nodes. Sometimes by myself since no one wants to defend in PVP. I can hold up to 10ish people off if my limit break is up for about two minutes. But zero chance I’m killing anyone in the process. Guess I get nothing?

A question i ponder every time i'm playing FFXIV. They never like it when i ask them.

i agree with this only because id like to get the Ginga mount from Frontline Fury achievement
i have 7 FL wins out of the 10 needed for that
one FL one team had a afker he got kicked so i guess some team do respond
