Need an indicator that you will be entering a dungeon part way through...or give credit for previous bosses done. It's very annoying to get put in mid way through a pledge dungeon and not get the credit...I don't want to drop group because that isn't fair to the rest of the group (and you get penalized) but I also don't want to waste my time doing part of a dungeon that I will still need to go back through.

I couldn't agree more. I always seem to get pulled into Direfrost Keep to help with the final boss and don't even get a 'thank you'.

Completely agree with this. Then again, if you got a notification a lot of people wouldn't join, so losing someone half way through a dungeon, you all may as well leave as most people are going to refuse to join. Best thing is like you said, maybe give credit for previous bosses, but I could see there being exploit problems with this, one group completes, then invites friends until everyone "completed" their daily just by zoning into the dungeon.

Something does need to be done though, I agree.

Eh, sometimes I like this. I have gotten plenty of vet dlc undaunted Helms by getting in on the last boss of random vet.

The key is asking WHY they replaced someone. If it is a clown show, just bail, probably saved yourself the time of struggling through part/all of the dungeon with a group is (rightly so as it is group finder) not optimized for the content.

Yeah, getting the daily dungeon XP for killing just one boss is awesome. But if you are queuing for a pledge dungeon, then it's not awesome.

Since I don't often do pledges but enjoy running random dungeons, I'd be the one clicking "Heck yes" to a partial dungeon.

I agree that this should be adjusted. You should get pledge quest credit for previously killed bosses when joining a random group via the finder and ending up in a dungeon in progress. This restriction to using the random group queue would prevent the ever-used "but this encourages people to kick before final boss" excuse from happening.

You queue for a dungeon-> you get into a group with a fresh instance-> play as normal

Queue for dungeon-> get group with partially completed dungeon-> kill remaining bosses-> full credit for all bosses in that dungeon

Invited to dungeon-> fresh instance-> carry on.

Invited to dungeon-> in progress-> credit only for bosses actually killed while you're present

This makes sense, right?

Perfect sense!

If u get in late and only kill last boss on hm, u can solo the rest on normal and get full credit.

Fake tanks. Fake healers. Ridiculous DDs.
They should simply punish fakes and enforce entrance to very content based on serious metrics.

Yes. You should only be able to queue for a dungeon if you can solo the dungeon at the difficulty you are queuing for!

DITTO. It's actually ridiculous. See my rant here: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/400209/im-so-tired-of-queuing-into-incomplete-vet-direfrost-keeps

I was in a really foul mood yesterday. Got placed in a FG1 run as my daily random, where one DPS had done the skip, soloed the boss, and then left. The other three idiots kept plopping away through the bosses, and asked for a replacement DPS. So I get pulled in, and find myself in a complete dungeon (with two bosses still up), and a penalty for leaving, because that idiot tank decided to pull me in.

So, fine, switch characters, get on a tank, that same Tank from the last run, the DPS and the healer are there. The tank with a Frost Staff and Sword and Board is double queuing as a DPS, when my Warden tank is pulling 50% of party DPS.

Ugh.
