    Marking Duty in Party Finder as Duty Complete

    Hello,

    I do not think that you should be able to set the requirements in Party Finder as 'Duty Complete' unless all people who are in the party before it's listed on party finder have cleared the duty. When I enter a party finder marked by the Duty Complete tag, I'm expecting a party that's seen the fight, not to see that someone is new, and is going to consequently wipe the party panicking to a mechanic they've never personally piloted. I know that not every one of these parties ends up being traps, but for the parties that do end up being traps I find it very frustrating.

    (Newish player here) Does that mean I could create a PF with the 'Duty Complete' flag even if I haven't cleared the Duty yet ? As much as I dislike that flag as a new player this seems clearly like a bug to me.

    The party leader/creator sets up the party as being Duty Complete but they already have a friend in the party that hasn't. Therefore it can still go through into Party Finder. then you get the surprise when you go in and see that someone has a bonus.

    Yeah it's not uncommon to see a PF stating they are doing a weekly run BUT also helping a friend/FC member/alt etc to clear it as well even though it's been set as Duty Complete. I don't think much can be done about it though as it's still the Party Leader who decides on what kind of party it is and what options they use.

    Not surprising most players lack common sense and can misinterpret what Duty complete means. Have made a few and as they come in I have to make sure they understand. Most think oh wait it's not mean what it think it means -.-;
