Vote Abandon has got to go

[firepixiedarien]

Short and sweet cuz I'm very angry right now: was in CT, Alliance A had 4 melee dps. Wiped 3x on Atomos, we almost had it the 3rd time. Someone Vote Abandoned, I clicked no, the Vote went through and I was booted.

While I disagree that is has to go all together, the 50% vote needed is BS. Should be at least a 75% or so majority. Basically two people can go together into a dungeon with the intent of kicking everyone just before the last boss and there's nothing that can be done about it.

This right here.

I was in an instance where the healer was kicked at the end boss. Wth. The other two said it was because he was terrible and wasted an hour of our time. I voted no because even if that were true we can still get tomes for it. Of course, right when he was kicked, everyone else left.

75% would be nice.

The person who starts the vote isn't included in the count. You'd need three trolls for a light party or five for a full party.

I wonder why they still haven't figured out that members that queue together should not have the same weight as a person who queued alone...

Honestly, they can make it work with the 50% option.

Just make it so ONLY the people that voted to abandon the duty will leave it. Everyone who voted no should stay in the instance. That way they can choose for themselves whether they want to wait for reinforcements (which are probably coming in CT) or bail (with no penalty since the group is full).

Wrong, it would take 3 people. The person who initiates it does not get to vote. So in a 4 man party it takes 3/4 or 75% (which is what you wanted) to end the run. In an 8 party it takes 5, 1 to initiate and four to vote yes. Full parties are 5/8, granted not quite 75%, but the majority either way.


From the patch notes for conformation to what I'm saying.

Near the bottom under "System" - http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...ba39b67875a7af

"The Vote Abandon function has been added, making it possible to abandon a duty without penalty if the following conditions are met:

Light Party
Two players (not including the initiating player) must vote Yes to disband and end the duty.

Full Party
4 players (not including the initiating player) must vote Yes to disband and end the duty.

1. While in a duty, open the Duty Finder interface under Duty on the main menu, then select Vote Abandon.

2. All party members will be presented with a window to vote. If the majority votes Yes within 30 seconds, the duty will be abandoned."

I voted no in my party of 4 and healer still got booted. What's going on with that?

It seems you are not speaking of vote to abandon, so idk. Not familiar with how vote to kick works sorry.

Vote kick ≠ vote abandon.

Ah I see, my mistake. The vote kick is kind of a bummer then =/.

That wasn't vote abandon but vote kick.
