Dungeon Finder is ruined

Community General Discussion

It’s pretty much a given now that someone will leave the group in the early stages of a dungeon. Why on earth would you make it so that legendaries can be looted from anything but the last boss?

Yeah, people leave groups all the time. People go AFK. People get kicked. People just change their mind. Replacing people is a thing. But this is a new behaviour pattern that is solely linked to players farming certain bosses for their best legendaries.

I have been in groups that have had to queue 3 times to replace people who dip after the boss they “need”. Or sometimes a player leaves, we queue for a few minutes and then everyone else gives up meaning that ~30 minutes (queue for group, play, queue in group) is wasted. And what about those who spend 15+ minutes queuing for a group, only to be dumped into a dungeon where the group is on the last boss? You do realise that some people would rather do 5/5 bosses rather than 1/5, right?

I really hope this is going to be fixed at some point, because this behaviour just saps all of the fun out of the new dungeons.

It’s just because people are farming for legendary recipes, it’s annoying but will become less common in a few weeks

It still shouldnt be a thing , legendary recipes/memories should drop from the end boss

hindsight is 20/20, they probably thought it added to the flavor to have specific bosses drop specific powers instead of just having a M+ style loot dump at the end of the dungeon but hey

Yes, that’s what I said?

And why will it become less common in a few weeks? Because everyone will have their preferred memory by then? Lmao, have you seen the drop rates?

Yes? And what do you want them to ‘‘fix’’? The problem will fix itself in a few weeks

Thank you for contributing nothing to this thread.

I can now instantly spot the leavers. He always runs first and often pull for tank and often overgeared for heroics.

Only drop from last boss and 100 percent from mythic would fix the problem.

Mine didnt drop from mythic. And drops from last boss so i wont join the pigs

Is it really that much of an issue however if someone leaves in LFG?

Assuming the worst case scenario and the tank leaves, do you have to wait long to find another one?

Also, I think the issue has been resolved now that Mythic has a much higher chance to drop than HC and normal dungeons, no?

It’s not hindsight at this point though; in previous expansions, dungeon WQs and other quests such as profession ones did not require the final boss. They had to change it so that it did.

Now they’ve repeated that mistake. Blizzard’s constant ineptitude with things like this is criminal.

I’ve been in groups where multiple tanks have left. And tbh in my experience, it is normally the tanks that leave.

So yeah, it is an issue. :slight_smile:

It’s not hindsight, its happened before and the solution proposed by the OP is how they fixed it.

So apart from trite comments that aren’t even accurate, why are you posting?

Yo OP, don’t worry, in 50 billion years or so the universe will die from heat death. This problem will seem trivial then so dunno why you’re whining!

Yes, but are they still leaving since the legendary drop hotfix? And also, how long do you have to wait to find another tank?

19

Yes. Because I posted this thread out of frustration of it happening earlier this evening. The hotfix has made no difference.

We waited maybe 5 minutes for another tank.

Anything else?

Yes actually, since you are so keen on only reading one sentence out of a whole post. You still haven’t responded to how long it takes to find a tank once they leave. :smile:

Thanks for the data. Good luck on your adventures in the Shadowlands! :ghost:

No. Blizzard have already shown they are well aware of player behavior because dungeon WQs required one to kill the final boss to finish the quest. That was put in precisely as protection against people in just for one thing then leave as soon as they get what they want, or not.
