Lockout Timer for Withdrawals is soo stupid

[Synestra]

People barely ever withdraw anymore.

Got 4 whitdraws in row today while i was leveling ninja, so rate seems to be same as before for me atleast.

It does not lock out full parties unless you were queuing for 24 man content.

partial parties are not full parties.

You guys know what was really awesome last night? When one of our party members 90k'd as the queue popped. That was 1 mark against me when it failed despite the fact I was online and hit accept. This is ridiculous and needs remedied immediately. I do not like getting marks against me due to the problems of others.

[Ditto]

You were punished for lack of situational awareness and also causing 3, 7, or 23 other players to have a que failure. That is a risk everyone takes when doing story, levequests, fates, hunts and crafting. If you are worried about strike 3 don't start doing something else that takes time while in a que when you already have 2 strikes.

Oh god what horror, they had to press ready a second time immediately after because I'm a DPS and there are millions of DPS just waiting in queue who would've taken my spot the immediate the queue withdrew anyway!

That 'punishment', is a joke.

In my opinion the lock out rule shouldn't apply for fully prepare parties, because I mean someone is always on the wrong job or derpin around with their cat or whatever lol

it doesnt get applied to full parties. 4 man dungeon? 4 people, no lock out. trial or raid? 8 people. CT or ST? 24 people.

I personally don't have an issue with the new DF penalty system at all because I've never had an issue with it nor have I had an issue like the one you experienced. But I can definitely see how that can be frustrating and annoying. Perhaps they'll hotfix it in future patch so that only the individual who withdrew gets the penalty and not the entire group. That seems quite absurd actually that they'd punish everyone.

Just drop the whole thing and again just give the in prog fishers what they want and put in an "In Progress Only" option and none of this nonsense will occur.

Duty finder queue for DPS when an in progress only option is added for tanks...



It has been discussed to death and this is why it will never happen. Its not meant to be a get full credit for half the run option, its meant to help parties that lost someone and needs a replacement only. If you don't have time to do a whole dungeon, here's a novel idea... Don't queue. Wow. Difficult I know.

You know there's only so many in progress runs available. You think all the tanks are going to jump into "in progress only" to wait 20 minutes for a 0/3 run instead of jumping into a fresh dungeon immediately?
