    Right now it's implemented as a means to shuttle people out of instances so they don't end up taking valuable space (like the people who are currently AFK logged on and taking up space). Considering the sheer volume of people that are playing, it might be a necessity. The devs expressed interest in possibly eliminating the timer at some point as long as it doesn't screw up battle balance (which I don't think will be an issue - bosses reset when you wipe and you can't rejoin a fight if you return to the dungeon entrance).

    That said the timer is extremely generous, dungeons are balanced to be completed in 30-45 minutes, and your situation was a very unique case. Props to sticking with and helping out the bad tank, but it really is your choice whether or not to put up with people like that if the win is that important to you and there is nothing wrong with you preferring a win since it's your time.

    If I was in that situation I'd feel much better about having helped out a player that in the long run would have ended up hurting others' fun with their inexperience, especially as Brayflox begins the content difficulty where you really can't carry dead weight anymore.
