Punish ppl more harshly for abandoning dungeons i.e Dun Scaith or change the system.

Getting really sick of going in Dun Scaith and people leaving after they get their drop on the first/second boss. This means I now have to compete with a new healer multiple times.

Many people are getting annoyed with this and it is harassment. I personally think that all drops should be removed to the end of the raid and just hand out tokens to trade in.

Even give bigger rewards at the end or at the very least give mhachi matter every run. Yes I know it will be unlocked later on but what's the point having it on weekly, when there is far easier ways to get a piece of materia anyway.

Meh. I don't mind it. I don't abandon after getting a drop myself, but I love joining a raid in-progress. I haven't had much difficulty finding new people when they drop either. I'd be afraid of people going afk or trolling to get kicked, if the penalty was too steep. That would be worse than people abandoning.

First, it's not harassment. Go grab a dictionary and calm down.

Second, it gives an opportunity for players to join in progress, which is always a nice surprise. It's not like the parties stay empty. The only time that happens is when the party leader doesn't requeue the party.

Third, welcome to 2015. This has been happening for 6 24 man raids now.

I am aware it's been happening for a while but this raid it has been 100% worse.

Its not worse, it was the same for every 24 man raid.

I can understand people who leave after the second boss if they got their loot or if they didn't get their loot. You never know how many times they've run that in this week.

[Masekase_Hurricane]

I don't see how anyone can be ok with this. i.e. you start dungeon with only one caster to need against, they get their piece and leave resulting in two others leaving as they can’t get the piece they want.

Now you are competing against 3 casters to get a piece of gear. All because of some greedy/selfish p***k leaving.

Cause it's a game and I don't let little things like this stress me out when there are tons of bigger issues in the world that I should be more concerned about than a piece of gear that is already on the brink of being outdated.

I personally only drop when the pt is bad, like really bad, like we have wiped on the same boss to the same mechanic 8 times bad and we will likely just time out anyway.

But hey if someone gets their drop and wants to leave, its cool, they could have ran this dungeon 20 times already this week for all I know and then I don't really blame them for not wanted to spend another minute in there. They aren't harassing me, frankly this post is more harassing then someone leaving a party early.

The only time this is an issue is when it's a static party. You get your loot and leave when you're in a static, then its an issue.

I've not found it any worse than any other raid.
If you want the least chance of it happening, play on the weekly reset day. People will want to complete it for their coin.

If anything it's not as bad considering how much easier alex savage is. More people with progression = less people needing 24-man "catch-up" gear.

Until the devs move all rewards to the final boss, you will always see people leave.
