Guild Wars 2

I just finished a CoE attempt. We were about an hour in when we got stuck on a part. Two of our group members ended up leaving out of frustration and for some reason the rest of us got kicked out of the dungeon. Why did this happen if I was the leader? I knew that if the party leader left the rest of the members were kicked but now this? There is no way to protect yourself from getting kicked now. Adding to the fact that you do not receive tokens until the very end of the dungeon, it is VERY discouraging to even attempt a run. Anet, please consider the impact that your changes will have on players before implementing them. Please, this is infuriating.

This has happened to me many times when people were frustrated and left.

It’s not the party leader who dictates the instance of the dungeon, but the first person who walked into the dungeon and started the instance. Even if you’re a party leader, if someone else starts the dungeon and you all join his/her instance, you will all be kicked out if he/she leaves, even if you were the party leader. It has caused a lot of frustration when I make parties and someone else walks into the dungeon before me, then they rage quit on the final boss.

I hope ArenaNet implements a way to stop this from happening. Maybe if the instance leader leaves, everyone in the party gets a prompt to ask if they want to keep going without the leader. But I don’t think it’s that easy. Cutscenes are based off the instance leader, not the party leader, so they’d have to somehow find a way to bump up the next person to be in the cutscene.

I’m sure they’ll think of something.

Yea certain dungeon paths are very tough and members get frustrated.. sometimes they just leave, leaving the rest stranded and empty handed after spending a few hours. It is not easy to find replacements right now, if only something like party finding tool is implemented (like FF11).

Getting kicked out having done nothing wrong is worse… although I haven’t experienced it but it must have been very frustrating.

Therefore, I think dungeons paths should be more rewarding for those who failed to complete. Those “bonus events” are good, it is like a DE in a dungeon.

And certain tough bosses should give partial reward too (partial tokens), or maybe just Arah. That leaves Arah the worse dungeon now, there was once when we beat the Gigantic Lup, and team got frustrated with the later Melandru boss or something, we left with massive number of deaths in 5 hrs and 0 reward. It is so discouraging.

I also believe in the policy of having different difficulty path in dungeons, out of the 3 paths, 1 path should be harder than the rest. For example, CoF.. this dungeons is well-made. So for those who want a challenge, the tougher path is the one they can go for.

Perhaps only Arah can be difficult for all paths since it is like the “highest” level of dungeon, but at least reward when necessary and not till the end.

Oh no the idiot boss is Simin, High Priestess of Dwayna.

there is not party leader in this game.. all can invite, all can kick…
