Ragequitting in Duty Finder has leveled up!

[Defteros]

Yesterday I was doing tamtaraHM, looking for that sneaky little Body for casters.
I queued as BLM, so waiting time was usually around 10/15 minutes.

when the duty finally starts, we begin clearing the road of the trash mobs, till we arrive at Leavinne.
we kill her, roll on the loot.
and then the tank leaves the duty.
everyone got frustrated and leaves, as I stand here, like an idiot.

I suck it up, and requeue. another 15 minutes waiting, and the duty starts again.
and again, we kill leavinne, and the tank leaves.
seriously, wtf.
what is wrong with people, these days.
I get enough of the ragequitting when I do the Duty Roulette Low, and the tank leaves as soon as he/she sees that Aurum vale or Stone Vigil begins.
I mean, what do you need to kill only the first boss for? the 20 mith tomes? A MINUN? go out and do hunts instead ._.

They probably wanted that tank vanity armor piece from the first boss and don't give a shit about the other 3 players.

[Defteros]

the tank armor piece only drops at the first boss?

[Chihaya]

The specific piece they want, probably.
Like the chest piece will only drop at final boss... if it doesn't give you filtered water.

I see that a lot. A friend joins a dungeon with me and says "I only need the first boss, after that I'm leaving". In the end I decide to stay so I don't make the other players wait more (I'm a healer).

Huh, pretty sucky behaviour on the part of your friend, abusing the DF like that.

Agreed, and with friends like that who needs enemies? They're basically putting the player you replied to you in the position where their two choices are 1) bail alongside them and play a part in taking advantage of two random players who queue'd for a full run, or 2) stay to help them mitigate the effect their abuse of the system has on the other players, and also be inconvenienced by waiting for a new tank (whereas the tank who's a 'friend' is off doing crafting or Hunts or whatever that isn't impacted by the 30 minute lockout). This type of player is not only using random people in DF, they're using 'friends' they con into queuing with them as part of their charade.

This is a clear abuse of the system- the tank involved chose to use DF vs. PF for one reason- to get what they wanted faster at the expense of others who queued for a full run and would have chosen NOT to join a PF for 'first boss clear then leave'. People who use their instant-queue DF privileges vs. PF to do this absolute scum- they're trading off the much larger amount of time that others spent in queue (could be a cumulative hour or more between 2 DPS's) beforehand, as well as waiting on a replacement if one shows after they leave, for a few extra minutes of their own time to do something else. Sad thing is this person probably has a gold magitek mount just for being a tank from the dungeons they did deign to finish, when really they should be getting decommendations.

Btw those of us who have PS4 are able to hit a button on our controller to autosave video of the last few minutes of gameplay after the fact. I'm sure I'm not the only one keeping a record of the players who do this. As long as I'm a current subscriber bound by the Terms of Service however, I would never violate that by posting that stuff yet.

if feels like te Syrcus Tower then...
as a BLM, I mainly want the body, as a loot.
so I'm stuck at waiting till the last boss, and it never drops xD
but if in the ST i get other gear peices that might interest me, when I do TamTara HM or Hullbreaker I always get crafting material >_>
it seems this patch is so Caster-unfriendly ;_;
or maybe I just suck at RNG.

Trust me, it's not just you :/ I do at least 6-7 ST runs a day and it takes almost the whole week to see a piece of blm gear drop. Worst part? I lose it to the guy who's wearing i100 or higher already -.-

But if I come drg or mnk, gear would be raining down upon me lol

Want first boss chest loot only, do a PF with that purpose. Chances are you easily find 3 others that only want something from first chest.
I myself lack only two pieces for a full Divine Harvest set.
Haven't tried to PF for only first chest yet, but I'm close to as I don't really want to run full dungeon, and I don't leave after first boss either if I enter normally.
