Guild Wars 2

Can we please get this to require all party members instead of a majority? Someone clicked it after receiving solid ocean loot. Then two others clicked it not noticing that it said “Warning: This reverts your progress…”

And so it was that we were all teleported back to Dessa’s lab without credit for the fractal.

This starts happening when people become too fast for their own good, sounds like a good change imo, but I see one problem.

What about when one party member is afk?
I think that’s the reason why the vote is there in the first place.

Dunno how fractals work on the coding side, but I think the best solution would be not to port everyone out at the same time at all, but let them leave on their own, like in dungeons and other such instanced content.

I think the more reasonable fix would be to simply shorten the time after killing the Maw until you get credit. I never understood why it takes so long…

If a party member is afk, we already have a majority-based mechanic to remove them from party. If they want to stay in there, the party member(s) that want to leave can go to character select screen or drop party/reform.

It’s true, Jade maw needs a shorter time to fractal stabilization, but that doesn’t address the issue that you can be ripped out of an instance without consent.

Not just on Solid ocean, I actually had someone do this on other fractals as well. It’s frustrating that people are not paying attention. Its one of the reasons I don’t like to pug anymore.

What does it mean when it says “reverts all your progress”?

I don’t have this problem since it is 3 friends and sometimes 2 pugs. I have seen many of those pugs leave before getting the rewards though.

My problem with the door is there is absolutely no reason for it anymore, and I would say there never was one. I hate being in a group that gets stuck on something (high lvl cliffside for example) and 3 people in the party get to decide for me that I’m done trying and I should lose all of my progress.

If you are done trying, then leave party, so that those who want to keep trying can get new people and continue without losing all of their progress that they worked for.

Remove the door please!!!

Was in some parties where people accidentally clicked on the door and whole party ported back without reward. Stuff like this happens. But what you mentioned bugs me more because the guy that clicks on the door kittens up whole party even of nobody else agrees to return to lab. People are fighting or doing something and this msg keeps popping up in middle of the screen. I am always near smashing the monitor when we are killing kraits and the last kitten lord that joined the party decides that he is either too afraid of water or realises that underwater weapons actually exist in the game.
