Question about Dudy Finder !

[MikoteAstra]

There is something i dont understand about it!

All the time i get the massage ...... A party member has withdrawn from the duty.
Finding new member.

This happens all the time befor we enter the mission and like so the party is destroyed ! It happns like 5-8 times in matter of 2 min and then there is no party, again waiting 1h for the mission !

Can someone tell me whats going on here ?

Oh, take it easy. Just your fellow playerbase trolling the functionality of the DF , attempting to get an in-progress (on last boss possibly) group for a quick myth reward not playing the content.
Sometimes they desist once they figure no in-progress group is available.
It's abused by both e and j players, sadly.
No punishment, no fix. Wait a fix by the dev team (and an appropriate punishment for abusers) , maybe one day we will get one. Until then, be patient

A tank or a Healer want to enter a mission in progress and so decline if they see that it's not a mission in progress.

Nah DPS do it too.

Sorry but i still dont understand it, i wait for a fresh new party to be created in the the Duty Finder, so how is it possable this, we did not start the dn at all !!!!

[amnie]

they already explained why.

there's a tick for 'include in progress' in the Duty Finder. that's what these people are hoping for.

you get a different message if a party is newly formed than when you enter a party in progress. if it's in progress you will get a message with the number of bosses already killed. for example 1/3 means the group in progress is about to do the 2nd boss.

what the people withdrawing are hoping for is to see 2/3
if they don't get that message, they withdraw.

[Teon]

The abuse is perpretated pulling mobs until the abuser gets the 2/3 window. Abusers tend to repeat it for 15-20 minutes or more.
You cannot report them, so we have to hope SE will provide an internal funcionality where when this action is repeated 2-3 times consecutively it will lock out the use of DF for a few minutes
(everyone would love to see a 24 hours lock /account suspension obiouvsly, let's not dream too much )

Sounds like you got your dudy massaged.

[MikoteAstra]

Thank you all for your answer ! (^-^)

Instead of 24h lock they should make it 1 week to all those who abuse the duty system or abuse the loot system like quiting the party after they saw that the boss did not drop the item ! For me is normaly a nightmare as dps to wait, so such things make it for me much worse, and i dont have time like they to play 24h a day !!!

And Happy New Year to you all (^-^)
