In Progress Dungeons

[Reiterpallasch]

Here's what I'd like to see happen with the duty finder:

When filling an in progress dungeon (lets say it's 2/4 and thus needs 2 members) do NOT have it pop up and fill 1 person at a time. What often happens is somebody will enter, go "oh, it's missing a tank/healer/whatever" and then drop, which creates sort of a "revolving door" dungeon that constantly cycles through members who enter and then immediately drop when the dungeon isn't full.

Instead, wait for the queue to fill the remaining members, then have it pop up for people to accept, and then put them in all at once. That way anyone that queues for a partial won't be getting tossed into a dungeon that only has 1 guy in it, and will instead be guaranteed a full group that will actually be able to finish without waiting. This also helps the people inside, as the group will fill instead of having people enter/drop nonstop.

How about those DPS tools that keep withdrawing over and over? I'm short a dps for a few dungeon runs and dbags love to afk while waiting for the queue to pop. That is annoying. Personally I think everyone sucks.

They should just do away with the option all together I think.

With the very strict instance timers on this game (and they are strict, I don't care what anyone says) it's basically a waste of time to join a group already in progress. 99% of the time you are probably going to lose due to a time out. There just isn't enough time allotted to replace members. Especially if that member was a tank.

How is having over an hour to clear a 15-20 minute dungeon strict?

This. I've failed one dungeon run in my entire time playing and it was a bad AV group that couldn't grasp the final boss. With lengthy AFKs I've not taken more than an hour to finish a dungeon via DF in this game. You have 90mins. Don't be that guy.
