    I never even understood why it has 3/4 there are only 3 bosses in that map. i never denied it was not a glitch or something not intended but you can easily avoid it, the only people who abuse it are those looking for free run clears for relic or GC request.

    The price for joining an in progress run? Are you serious? All this is doing is stopping people from ticking the in progress box so tough luck for those in a dungeon who need someone to join half way through their run which is the whole point of the system.

    Get a grip. It's a simple fix that needs to happen.

    Quit trying to create drama, you click join in progress you have to deal with the downside, everyone tries it them sevles due to wanting max tomes quickly, so don't sit here and pretend that it should 100% safe with no downside. it is already a risk as is join sessions and there being no tank or healer or some job that isn't easily replaced, you are displaying negativity for no reason other then an argument.

    the solution IS simple, don't click join in progress if you don't want to risk seeing that 3/4 regardless if it needs fixed or not, it is EASILY avoidable so it's not really a problem unless you're one of those people desperatly trying to leech runs.

    Don't go there.

    I am absolutely speechless. Why you think it shouldn't be "100% safe" is beyond me. It has nothing to do with getting tomes quickly. I queue for multiple dungeons at a time. As DPS you have to if you don't want to be waiting an hour or more. I have done this since the level 15 dungeons started. The fact is, it shouldn't happen. End of story.

    Because you seem to not read well, i already stated in a previous post i am aware it is something not intended, but whining about it is pointless considering it isn't FORCED on you at all. 100% safe meaning you can control what you join and how you join it, when you look at the progress sheet you have to decide if you want to risk joining it or not.
    because 1 of 2 things happen.

    A:No tank or healer, tanks will almost NEVER join in progress because they simply don't need to, healers may as i do it my self due to usually finding people wiping to demon wall. very rarely do i ever get people at the last boss.

    B: bad players, some people will simply ditch runs if you have some horrible players and you end up going in risking you having to deal with that.

    Those are the risks you have to deal with. that is why it is not 100% safe. If you join a 3/4 you already know what to expect when going in, so it's your choice not to do it, was no reason for you to even debate on this.

    When your 'In Progress' pops, it shows you the current Progress of it (0/3, 1/3, 2/3, 3/3). It's a YELLOW Number so it is kinda hard to see... but it does tell you ahead of time.

    For AK:
    0/3 - No Bosses Killed
    1/3 - Flayer Killed
    2/3 - Wall Killed
    3/3 - Myth Tomes Collected.

    For others:
    0/3 - No Bosses Dead
    1/3 - 1st Boss Dead
    2/3 - 2nd Boss Dead
    3/3 - Dungeon Completed.

    Although I would agree that people shouldn't click 'Refresh Party' after they finish.

    thanks for the info
    btw what does the numbers mean, the dungeon room progression?
    does it mean that if it's 3/3 then the party is already in the last room?

    I edited the post as you were quoting lol... It means the number of Bosses downed.
    For AK:
    0/3 - They may be wiping on first boss (probably getting Plainscracked... I'd love to see if some group of Relic+1/Allagan wielders could kill that Megalith Monolith!)
    1/3 - They beat the first boss, but can't meet the DPS Check for the Wall.
    2/3 - They beat the wall, but Bone Dragon's farts are killing them.
    3/3 - The Dungeon is complete.

    It actually shows up as 1/4 2/4 etc for whatever reason not 3. Although there are clearly only 3 bosses to count. Unless there is some hidden boss nobody knows about.
