Similar to the Duty Finder, a penalty system is in place for abandoning Lord of Verminion matches. Taking the following actions several times will restrict players from taking part in matches for a set amount of time.
The reason that the penalty is also in place for matches against the computer, including the tutorial, is because instances are still being utilized for these matches. Removing this restriction may lead to situations where multiple instances are being utilized which in turn may not allow other players to play during peak hours. Therefore, we have placed this lockout penalty as a preventative measure.
- Retreating from a match
- Withdrawing from a match, or letting the time run out on the queue window
That said, we're continuing to gather your thoughts and feedback to share with the dev. team and will let you know if adjustments are made in the future.
