Hit Ragequitters in their pockets

Yep, been going on since the beginning of the game I believe. Back in 2.0, you would get the full mythology tome award for beating the final boss in a dungeon, so people would fish for in progress games just to snag the full reward. I believe it was on 2.1 where the devs changed the mythology awards to be evenly split per boss fight. Then they done goofed with the solidery tomes by making them final boss only reward.


Now we have animus books and nexus light content where the player only gets award for completing the final hurdle and not the obstacles before it, hence the high amount of in progress fishing. Sycrus Tower is worse because the best drops only come from Xande.

Aaahhh thanks - knew it was kinda fishy but thought it was more server side >_< *Starts chaining people down the moment they pop in*

So I'm in a dungeon with a bunch of rude, obnoxious people and it's taking way longer than expected. I want to quit so I can make it on time for my raid but I can't because doing so would mean I'd de-level to 49 and be unable to get into Coil? Is this even an idea?

Scenario:

Your SO has had an accident.
You are half way through a DR.
You have to rush your SO to the Hospital.

Oh wait half your gil is gone and you have to re-level from 49.

Flawed system.

I don't agree with op but this argument is almost as bad.

In a situation like that you probably would not care about your game, and situations like that are rare to begin with, so it is absurd to design a system that takes so rare occasions to consideration. In cases like that you would just have to deal with that, it's like the fact that you lose your crafting mats if you dc during crafting but even more rare.
