So it happened to me again. A friend of mine and I did a dungeon together and at the final boss, we wanted to sell the remaining 3 slots for some gold. Soon after advertising our group in the LFG Tool 2 players joined. Funny thing is, we got kicked by them immediately after they joined(3s max.), leaving us without any reward for investing a lot of time into that dungeon.

This wasnt the first time happening. We tried selling in a diffrent dungeon too, and the same thing happenend. Is this intentional? I can’t rly believe that and its infuriating.

So this isnt just a another thread complaing. Thats why i want to propose the idea, that on joining a group, the group needs to confirm on merging parties and on joining new members. Also there should be an option to deny the kick of a party member.

Additionally it shouldnt be possible to kick the guy opening the dungeon. That this is even possible baffles me.

Thx for reading.

Personally, I don’t think you should be able to sell those spots.

This is not a bug. things are working as intended.
I do not have a personal issue with people soloing (or duo-ing) paths and selling the other spots at the end. But it is not the goal of the game nor is it what the game is about. For regular dungeon groups the whole lfg-tool and the kick people if you dont want to play with them is working as intended.

If you want to sell paths, please feel free to do so (no exploiting allowed though), but understand that it is not something that the game is designed for. The game is made so you complete a dungeon with a group of five players from start to finish.

What you are proposing is only to protect path-sellers, but pathselling is controversial in the community (like Sligh demonstrated) and should not be promoted by the devs.

Also, as said, this is not a bug and this belongs in the general discussion section or the dungeon section.

Being able to kick the party-leader is not a bug hm? I may explain this. If you kick the party leader, every member of the group gets ported out of the instance. Any progress will be lost. Additionally, if you get kicked, your chat gets cleared, cause you leave a zone(the dungeon), so you can’t even report players who continue to abuse the LFG-Tool.

I may repeat this. There are players out there, who enjoy destroying parties. Just for the sake of being an a******.

Pls, tell me there is no need for improvement.

I think his idea of having people have to accept a person into their group is completely valid and would help more than just sellers. It would help people who want to be able to filter the types of players they get, be it by build, class, AP, or whatever they want. (Because, play how you want)

It’s not right for any reason, for someone to destroy another persons instance. Especially not because they feel like they’re being white knight savior of the people.

This absolutely resides in the right place, considering the obvious and blatant bug with party merging.
