I completed CoF explorable Magg’s route with my guildmates today.
We finished the dungeon as soon as we could because one of our member have to leave early. We completed all objectives using legit methods and got the reward. Here is the problem.

The party leader – me – received 45 tokens + 19 silver + 133k exp
Everyone else received 60 tokens + 26 silver + 160k(might not be exact on this) exp

None of us have done CoF explorable since the update a week or two ago that changed diminishing return.

I get that completing a dungeon under 30 minutes was bound to have a side effect. However, I will quote Jon Peters this:

“If you speed clear dungeons at a rate of more than 2/ hour, and continue to do that for some time your rewards will slowly begin to degrade. It doesn’t kick in after running a single dungeon and it doesn’t immediately zero out rewards.”

My other concern is that it is a character/account bug that is specific to me since this had happened to me before and none of my party member when we completed other explorable dungeons.

Yes I am double posting this in both the bug section and here. You know why? Because the I am starting to doubt that Mr. Hrouda and other dungeon designer are reading the bug forum more than the dungeon forum. I’ve posted the same bug reports there when diminishing return was broken last week and it seems nothing was fixed.

I am certainly happy that you made the token system more rewarding and CoF more balanced but it still boggles me that I keep getting hit by the D.R. out of nowhere.

my question is this
If you have say 3 level 80 toons and all do the dungeon once per day. Is the 1st run on each toon eligible for the bonus?

Go back to WoW. Most overused brainless arguement 2012-2013

Ran all 3 TA explorable paths. 2 tokens for the first path. 2 tokens for the second path. 5 tokens for the third path. All three took 40+ minutes. I’d run all of them earlier in the night so maybe things will start working right after the reset…hopefully. When it was just missing silver, I could live with the bug because at least I was getting tokens.

Can we please get an official from the dev team? I really want to do my daily explorable runs and I am afraid that I’ll get shafted on rewards again. I am very disappointed with the way the game is running. Please make a test server and get volunteers to straighten these bugs out before they go live.

With the new changes to dungeons and black lion chest, I threw in some bucks for gems to show my support, but now I’m starting to regret it. I don’t feel like arenanet is respecting my and many others’ concern in this issue and still believe that they can wing a patch to solve everything while opening up more holes.
