Yea it really sucks when you have to wait on the npcs to get done talking or doing something stupid before you can complete the quest. I've been teleported twice now today because the group disbanded immediately after the boss was killed.

It even resets when you try to go back in. Lame.

    This is why it's really good to talk, to mention you have the quest and need extra time at points.

    Most of the folks are pretty good about that if you warn' em
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    Yep. Learned that lesson yesterday in Darkshade. Today I made sure to ask people to stay so I can complete the quest. At least one person stayed each time.

    Yeah, just ask. Most people will happily stick around so you can get the quest done.

    ... Most people. The ones that still have souls, anyway. >_>

    Thing is though even if you ask there is no guarantee that they will stay. There is no need to auto port the last person. I can find my own way out.

    I always have a friend or guildie just help me duo normal mode to complete dungeon quests.

    But if I actually notice the quest cues like NPCs showing up or what not ( things that don't happen if no one is doing the quest ) I'll always stick around to make sure they get it done or help kill an optional boss like in dark shade, the dwarven sphere boss blocking the quest completion NPCs .

    Other wise if no one says anything or I don't notice quest cues, I'm definitely leaving group for the free teleport out.

    I have never, ever seen a group that refuses to stay the extra couple of minutes to let you finish the quest if you ask.

    Heck in Darkshade 1, I even routinely aggro and kill the cylinder boss that's just up the path on the way to the turn-in NPCs just in case someone in the group is doing the quest... without even being asked.

    Just ask in chat.
