Zero roulette rewards for lethargic play especially in Frontlines

[Darkobra]

It's simple, start calling them a "tomer". Every time they say something just respond with "okay tomer". Tomers are dead-weight and ruin the experience for everybody else. It's time to start calling it out and calling these people what they are.

And then what? They repent and change their ways? You're acting like they care about your opinion.

I think lethargic play is a bad sign the game is boring.

(sometimes)

Some people are just lazy though.

You must be very unlucky. I have never been in a roulette where people did not do their job correctly. Sometimes during front PVP people does not apply the best strategy for sure, but it's rare and are not linked to tome event. Most games are pretty closed in points. Same for dungeon, sometimes you can see new player or people who try new jobs but, almost all of the roulette I do are clean.

Do you try to kick them? I usually initiate a vote kick if i see someone afk and often it goes through.

Ppl afk during fl is super annoying, i guess the event and roulette attracts ppl who whould rather not play pvp but just want tomes and exp but i think it is still better than it was before, when i started to play pvp in 2015 i had to wait 40-120 min for a game to pop (8v8v8 o.O)...

The Mogtome event has created too many people who play lethargically in various roulettes, which by the way is against the ToS so thank me for informing you later.

There's already a piece of content in the game that gives you 20% of the rewards if you play badly/AFK, and it's Chocobo racing, which happens if you get last.

They need to do that for every part of the game, there's no reason for someone in Frontlines to do less than 100k damage to other players, just none. That means they were either AFK or just doing nothing the whole time. They should not get any reward, why should they get as much reward as the people who carried them to victory with 15+ kills ? Same for dungeons, if you do less than 3000 DPS in a Lv90 dungeon you should get no reward, because an auto-attack is 3000 damage, if you do less than that that means you're not even using auto attacks really.

This isn't to punish players who are just bad but to dissuade players who ain't even playing. As long as you are trying you won't get no rewards don't worry.

Yes please... im already not the best and yet i see plenty ppl doing not 1/4th my damage... or not using Lb or spamming emotes for several minutes...

What is there to heal in Castrum Meridianum ? Actually you should very much be using almost nothing, other than the very occasional Medica II, there really is nothing to heal.

Livia raidwides and her tbs. I was lucky to see a Regen. No Medica II either. Four wipes because WHM kept standing in the orange and dying before anyone else.

I am not sure if player damage is a good metric. I like to hit rocks until my ninja lb is ready then l go take kills with it. Also, l can pad a tons of damage as scholar, But people can walk away from it and just pot to negate all that damage. So l can dish out more damage than a dragoon+dk. It means nothing. And What's up with "titanman_topic" in this thread's tag?

Was going to say this. SCH can run up to the entire enemy team a few teams and spread the bio and that's easily a few hundred thousand damage. Then just go back to being afk. Could even just do the same as DRG with your LB.

I'm not against anti-afk measures, but there's too many opportunities for people to get around it. The reality is we need GMs to actually care enough to look into these situations and take action.

Last time I tried vote kicking someone the team acknowledged that they knew the person was afk in the chat, and that it didn't matter.

When people quite using mods to auto target nearest player with lowest health or auto execute Limit breaks if it will kill a player within range I will start trying

Sounds like a skill issue ? It's not hard to click on a low health player.

By the way you can target nearest player with a keybind it's completely legal and it's in the game.
