    Duty finder penalty for withdrawing is annoying.

    The penalty for withdrawing 3 times from a duty has become nothing more than a nuisance. Every time I am in a group and the leader withdraws other people in the party seem to get the penalty. I have also encountered the penalty from withdrawing while the group is being formed. Its time for it to go.

    Seems the problem is on your end, not in the system.

    3 times, think about it.

    3 TIMES before the penalty is apply.

    The fact that you are still getting the penalty reinforces the need for it. You are wasting other people's time, you lose your privileges for a bit.

    They announced they were looking to remove the full party withdraw penalty.

    Accepting the queue pop as tank for low level roulette then leaving the dungeon incurs the same penalty as hitting withdraw 3 times.

    One is not the same as the other, yet both is a 30 min lockout. So no, the withdraw penalty needs a serious rework.

    I don't understand your reasoning. What's wrong with two different infractions resulting in the same penalty?

    The one that wastes the 2hr queue for dps on low level roulette is worse, obviously, since they are now stranded in a dungeon and a tank may never join, as opposed to being inconvenienced for 45 seconds but still having their place in queue.

    If the leader of the party withdraws, the only people who will get the penalty are those who have already had two withdrawals in the past 24 hours. You'll get one strike otherwise.

    And yes, I have personally tested this.

    Also, you don't get a penalty for withdrawing while the group is being formed or before the duty has popped.

    I've had someone withdraw from queue costing me much longer than 45 seconds, plus it takes 3 times for the penalty. 1 withdraw has cost me well over 10 minutes before getting the full party to have a 2nd withdraw on a few occasions. You're not stranded in the dungeon for 2 hours, you can leave without penalty if the party isn't full and requeue.
