Since when do you get 45 minutes penalty for leaving a dungeon?

Grandchamp1989

Just left a group in Vet DLC with low levels who kept running infront of me (tank) and pulled mobs and died it was a mess, despite telling them to stop.

45 minute penalty I'm sitting with... Can show screenshot of it as proof. Is it a mistake?

Perhaps it upped your penalty cause you've been leaving several dungeons in a row?

Man that's 3 times as stupid as the original 15 minute pentalty. Worse given how the the timer begins just by joining a dungeon to everyone and if the other 3 people quit on YOU you're penalised by a system that just punishes everyone and doesn't do a thing about the real problem of people

While you aren't the first person I've heard of this happening to, its only supposed to be 15 minutes. Does logging out and logging back in help?

And I'd send the screenshot in to ZOS. The penalty isn't supposed to be that long.

It's a rare glitch. In all of the dungeons i've had to bail over the years, i've had it happen twice.

Actually if you join a dungeon and the other 3 people leave first, you don't get a penalty and can queue again immediately.

Not from my past experience, or has it been changed at some point?

Far as i was aware, everyone gets a 15min timer as soon as the group forms ands they enter the dungeon regardless so if if the\at group ends early, no one can queue untill those 15mins are up.

First one I left today and been in like 8-9 dungeons...

45 minutes for leaving a dungeon we wasn't gonna complete anyway is just stupid..

Nah, it's been this way for a while. If everyone else leaves first or you get kicked, no penalty. I remember in the past where only 2 people had to leave and the last 2 people didn't get a penalty, but I think that changed somewhere to needing 3 people to leave and the last person doesn't get a penalty. Of course this only works if you're in the dungeon. If you get kicked while outside the dungeon, you still keep the penalty.

Now you are a true tank!

You even took on the penalty damage for two other players!

You're exactly what's wrong with the game and the group penalty system. it should be the other way around. if people are kicked they get a new timer.

Yup, I do the same.

I had the same sort of group yesterday. Run ahead, me scramble to save them. DPS only had direct skills so adds were always up. Painful experience. I reflected...next time I will let them wipe and then tank something on their corpses for a very...very...very long time. They will get the penalty.
