"It's not Brayflox, so I quit." - The DR Quitters Issue

[XiXiQ]

My preference would be removing the "roulette" part. Let people pick which bonus dungeons they want to do. Some will be more popular than others, sure - but that will fix the issue of people leaving just because it's content they don't want to (or maybe even can't) do. It would be nice to see the amount of players required for instances too, so people can choose to go somewhere where they would be most useful.

The story primals would need to be split into their own category, maybe even split the remaining low levels into 2 categories. And for the instances that never seem to fill? do the same as they do for tanks/healers - you pick that one, you get a little extra bonus.

Not a perfect solution - I doubt there is one - but it would keep a far larger group of players content, and keep people in the lower level dungeons so newer players can progress without long waits.

Also happened ... haukke hm where i was the replacement and upon arriving, saw the timers were still at 79 minutes.

Haukke HM? That's hilarious, it's actually faster to run in full than Brayflox. I'm always stoked when I get it for High Level roulette!

[BobbinT]

err... don't quiters in total DF will get penalize in 15 minutes if they left? Unless it was a premade pt which has no penalty. lol

Too many people abuse Roulette as it is. They aim for specific dungeons and leave if they do not show up. That's not Roulette.

Roulette means you do not know what you get, what you get is mainly to help others who may struggle with the content because they have no FC yet and it is a measure to take care that older content still gets played, especially important for new players.

Majority uses DF like Party Finder. Speed runs over everything else, newcomers are NOT welcome. Party finder = "1 fail and kick". Duty finder = "1 fail and I leave".

Oh and SE must close the glitch allowing players to leave the dungeon without penalty when they are doing it faster than the rest of the group ends their cutscenes. Lots of people abuse it with the the help of PC and SSD's.

Here's an interesting idea that I have no idea how feasible it is: Have the game visibly keep track of how many people are queued for each dungeon on the duty finder page. Dungeons with lower people queued for them will give larger bonuses for completion if you choose to do them. Sort of like the whole "class in need" thing, but for dungeons as a whole.

[Lithera]

I imagine the in-progress dungeons sitting low in the DR queue is mostly to combat the idiots who fish for nearly finished dungeons for fast roulette completion.

[Swishytail]

I don't get this, either. You'd rather quit, take a 30 minute penalty, then what?
What if that guy gets Lost City again? He's just gonna eat another 30 minutes?

They should gray out the abandon button for 15 minutes, same time as the vote
abandon.

My group has actually been avoiding Brayflox lately just because it's so boring. We've been farming soldiery in the other two dungeons. I actually cringe if I get Brayflox as my random.

[LexSunfire]

They should just remove the bonus if you leave the dungeon you've gotten on first try. This would solve the issue (alongside with fixing the leaving-during-cutscene issue).

This needs to be implemented. If you do the DR to get the bonus tomes, but you leave it because it wasn't the dungeon you wanted, then you should forfeit the day's bonus. People shouldn't be able to still get the bonus for using the roulette when they refuse to do all but one of the dungeons in the roulette. There should be some penalty that if you leave the dungeon you got on DR within the first 5-10 minutes you lose the bonus tomes for that day. End of story.

[Spoekes]

Maybe SE does not do this because you punish players who have a disc, loading error or smth not in their control.

However, noone but SE might be able to somehow weigh both cases against each other..
