Patch 3.3.3 PTR Notes

Dungeon Finder

* The Deserter debuff given to players who leave a dungeon prematurely when queuing via the Random Dungeon option has been increased to 30 minutes, up from 15 minutes. The cooldown for using the Random Dungeon option remains 15 minutes.

AWwwww are you mad that no one likes your Oculus dungeon and even trying to bribe us we still wont run it?

Q u o t e:
Unintended consequence: People like me will wait 15m and be kicked, meanwhile the rest of the group must wait with us instead of requeuing immediately.

It's not mentioned in the notes, but the Vote Kick option no longer has a 15-minute cooldown. Enjoy. :)

Q u o t e:
You honestly think that being able to type in a comment that others would read will remove the abuse of this new immediate kick system (change) by many who are already geared and just want the emblems?

Really?

This might not answer your question -- which may or may not have been rhetorical anyway -- but we did find that a lot people were clicking "Yes" on the Vote Kick alert, then later asking, "why did we kick that guy?" The idea is to make the person who wants to kick someone from the group give everyone else a reason. If the reason is silly or defamatory, a surprising number of people could very well reject it.

While many people are quick to take into account all of the worst possible scenarios with any presented changes to the game, we find that those cases are typically the minor fringe cases once the changes are put in action. The patch notes are out and the speculation is brimming, but let's see how things turn out before clenching our crystal balls, shall we?
