Make tomestones drop after each boss in CM, not at the end.

[Roric]

Right now, Allagan Tomestones only seem to drop at the very end of CM in one large chunk. On one hand, this encourages groups to work together and get through the entire instance to be rewarded. On the other, this leaves players entirely at the mercy of the luck of the draw in terms of their party composition when using the Duty Finder.

The current system inadvertently penalizes players who end up with groups who are unable to finish the instance. Because trash mobs give nothing of value and there is literally nothing else in Level 50 instances that benefit the player in any way, this translates to a waste of time for those unable to complete the instance

If tomestones were to drop after each boss (Let's say 25 for four bosses instead of 100 at the end of the instance), players will at least have a chance to bring something home should the group fall apart halfway through. I'd rather spend a half hour in an instance and get 25 stones out of it than a half hour with nothing to show.

And yes, I do realize that this may introduce the problem of players consistently dropping out after the first or second boss. However, if the last boss gave more tomestones than the rest, and if a bonus was granted at the end of the instance based on the total number of trash mobs defeated, I could see it working. These are just a few ideas.

What group is unable to finish CM?

Its very rare to have a CM group that can not complete it. But when you do you can usually tell by the first boss if you are gonna be wasting your time or not.

It is already very easy to run this place, and is easily the best tombs received for time spent. They do not really need to make changes to this. They might even nerf the amount in the future tbh.

all you want is spoon feeding huh? CM is so easy IMO. i always get sleepy when i'm farming at CM to be honest

We had a tank who went AFK and said nothing from the start, and one of the healers kept dcing and didn't log back on. So we attempted CM with 1 tank & 1 heal. We wiped at the very end of last boss when the healer had aggro on the giant.

The non-afk tank left after that, so yeah, it would have been nice to get something for our efforts. Not sure how long we were there for but the tank and healer were amazing to stick with it.

Something for your efforts? Something for the efforts of a bad group with afk players? Why would a group consisting of afk, and high latency players be rewarded?

Why should a group that can not complete the content receive a reward? Because YOU are in it?

[ZealHoss]

The only thing i will say about this is, you should not be rewarded for failing, however you should not be punished because another player didnt even care to try. They need to remove the option to join a group already in progress and make it so the Q is always set to join groups already in progress.

ppl would farm only 1 boss if its fast and gives more tokens then the whole run
