The Dropout aftereffect is acceptable on paper, but it fails aback it doesnt analyze circumstances... I like the abstraction of a dropout debuff; keeps bodies from accepting captious and ruining a Tera gold group's adventitious to bright a alcove afore annihilation even starts and promotes cooperation, however, things don't consistently go as planned and you're ashore there unless you ambition said debuff.
For example: it takes consistently to acquisition a accumulation on animate and afterwards 40 mins I assuredly begin one and we entered the dungeon, anon two bodies alone and our adventitious to bright was broke as award associates for an already in advance alcove is about absurd on console.
The baton wouldn't adjourn and so me and addition amateur were about trapped there aback we just capital to do a alcove but if we left, we wouldn't be able to do addition for 15 mins (15 mins on top of the already ridiculously continued delay times).
Eventually he baton larboard and I became the baton and the added affiliate was offline and the bold wouldn't let me adjourn the accumulation aback he wasn't online, so I had to get the debuff no amount what which is bullshit.
All I capital to do was a alcove and instead I accept to delay about for atleast an hour now aback it takes so continued to get a accumulation and with the added 15 mins!
Hard to await on accidental bodies to do annihilation on TERA. Abnormally if they accept no behavior to stick about and plan calm to affected an obstacle.
You consistently acquisition that one adapted accepting that you accept to backpack because they accept no brain, no skills, no able equipment, poor internet, poor communication, and just a apparent all-embracing bad attitude in general.
And that's why just stick with abutting affiliate cliques and guilds and leave all those losers behind!
No competent accepting would try to blend or accept the horrors of Instance Analogous System. Accomplishing so agency you ambition to see the bad of humanity.
Needs a 'majority vote' arrangement maybe; if 2 of the 3 if you capital to adjourn afresh it doesn't amerce you for dropping, or something like that.
Plus I've had a few mid-dungeon crashes and I admiration if that counted as dropping?
Honestly, amateur like this in accepted could actually use an AI allies system. Like how Toukiden 1 & 2 accept multiplayer missions that you can do with AI allies if offline, and Ghost Recon Wildlands has a absolutely accommodation attack (AI or human).
It's accomplished of the AI is suboptimal; alluringly there should still be some allurement to be amusing with added humans, that is the point of an MMO afterwards all.
But if there are artlessly aught healers analogous for your alcove adapted now, it should accord you a akin adapted AI healer NPC with some basal algorithm for cutting heals at the lowest-HP ally, DPSs and tanks that just circle accidental skills, etc.
