    People sabotaging the last boss of deep dungeon

    I have yet to beat the last boss of deep dungeon floor 50 because there is always someone trying to wipe the group. The problem with the boss is that there is an instant wipe mechanic if you get hit by 5 aoes these people are purposefully trying to get hit. I seen people dance the whole time standing in AOE while not attacking the boss that is how I know they were trying to make the whole group die on purpose.

    I have wasted about 6 hours of my time so far with this. It takes 10 clears to get the mount I can't get a single clear cause someone is always trying to sabotage the run. I am trying very hard to get my mount and pets from this content.

    SE needs to take out the instant wipe mechanic of this last boss it just promotes this type of play. There are no retrys on this boss they wipe you and waste 1 hour of your time. Something needs to be done SE and soon.

    Just wow. I've cleared a few times already and have yet to see anyone doing this. Odd you're constantly getting grouped with someone/people purposefully trying to wipe the group.

    Tell them that you can force disconnect using task-manager even after killing the boss to "win without saving." (yes, I have tried it and it works as of yesterday.) Alt F4, force shut down, wait 5-10 mins, log in.

    It really sucks that people are starting to cheat the system when they didn't get any upgrade on floor 41-49 but I'm not surprised. SE really needs to add a guaranteed silver chest (that doesn't explode) after beating the floor 50 boss.

    They are probably grinding for Aetherpool Arms and Equipment and are dying so they can continuously do 41-50.
    Granted, they could also do this by leaving at the end of the 49th floor too and left the rest of the party to do 50.

    Not only happens in boss, a friend died on the 39th floor by a warrior who pulling all the rooms and when he died his message was "good luck" and disconnected.

    SE doesn't really think about how their systems can be exploited until players exploit them. >w>
    Just look at when Diadem came out, they didn't think parties would just go to Dino-Island and zerg-rush everything for higher ranking monsters to spawn.

    As long as the upgrade/queueing system is left how it is, this is gonna be a thing that happens. People that are unsatisfied with the lot they got in 41-49 are not going to want to clear 50 and have to do the first 40 floors again for essentially nothing but a few poetics/esos and a pot shard they may not even want because they have nothing to do with obtaining the i235 weapons.

    Granted, they could also do this by leaving at the end of the 49th floor too and left the rest of the party to do 50.
    The best thing you can really do here is ask for a kick.

    Only thing is, they'll probably never get a replacement, again due to the way the upgrade/queueing systems work, because people trying to farm upgrades on 41-50 will not be queueing in-progress out of the risk they'll end up right at floor 50 and get nothing.

    This is definitely harassment as it's affecting your game play. You can report them. I'm not sure if they'll remove the mechanic completely though.

    If anything the mechanic should be personal not party wide. Like you get hit you gain a stack of a debuff, you get 5 stacks you die. That way no single person can wipe the whole group.
