Crystal Tower... players abusing it

[Burien]

I see 90k problems with this idea :P

You sir are correct in that possibility hopefully in the update patch as it mentioned "When using the Duty Finder, players are now unable to withdraw from combat" will at least make it somewhat of a deterrent?

A problem I am seeing more and more lately is players refusing to participate in the instance after their item of choice not dropping and also refusing to abandon because they don't want the lock out timer. I understand that they have goals in mind, but so do the other 23 players. I, for one, think that they deserve the lock out for being selfish. We all have things to do, items we want, myth we need, etc. I would like to see an option added for dismissal that directly addresses this. Then perhaps they will realize that a good run would only take another 30 minutes or so and finish instead of wasting time for everyone else.

Make it so they lose their loot if they abandon duty!

best idea i seen so far.

and they should count it as you still got it so they lose that week and think about what they did.

Make it so they lose their loot if they abandon duty!

Best idea here.

Make it so they lose their loot if they abandon duty!

That would be nice! and will solve the problem of people leaving after getting the item for the week.

That would be nice! and will solve the problem of people leaving after getting the item for the week.

And if the group fails on 3rd boss and disbands you leave and lose item ?

Sad all the problems with Ct, I enjoyed my experience. I was expecting a clusterf&^k but it went well. Was something different to do too bad they didn't release this when it would have been most beneficial.

I think the reason is people are forced to be douches in this game and hate the structure.

How to solve these situations:

1. No chests spawn until the final boss is downed. Then all chests appear in a horde of loot.
2. Players can vote to concede. A successful vote to concede returns all players to the start of the dungeon and spawns chests for bosses that were downed during the raid. The starting area is walled off.
3. When time limit expires, all players are immediately returned to beginning of instance (which is walled off) and all loot chests from downed bosses appear. Ample time is given to loot chests before the raid is booted from the instance.

Get rid of loot lockout - Problem solved lol. Don't need to get rid of chests after bosses prior to the final boss, just get rid of the lockout.
