players leaving (antisocial elixir)

[Immortal_Blood]

 

dumb name I know but hear me out..

This is really annoying, you wait 5 minutes... start the fight, you almost got to phase 2, someone leaves, everyone else leaves.

It isn't ok, people who leave should be marked for debuffing.... even if they got disconnected.

---

example suggestion to resolve it:

Leaving a zone before it's completed multiple times (similar to how muting results in a ban) grants you a 7 day elixir and doesn't count down when offline.

Elixir effects:

• +50% damage and stats when solo.
• -50% damage and stats when with other players.
• Cannot be removed.

Hoping this will stop people from leaving zone because other peoples equipment is not as good.

Maybe this will cause some game issues? I haven't thought about it too much.

Thoughts?

Ah.. also on the contrary.. a "social elixir" might be a good idea too.

e.g. completion of a zone with random players grants the elixir +50% dmg blah blah blah when with other players, no negative effects. can be removed , etc.

thx

This is a debuff in world of warcraft given for fleeing a duel to the death; doesn't count down offline, and I think it's account bound.

Ok so yea -1 the debuff elixir is a bad idea..
----------------

but what about the buff elixir?

example:

• complete 5 zones at current level when playing with other players and not in a party
• joining zone with party then leaving party doesn't count towards completion

gives:

• +50% stacking damage for 15 minutes
• Elixir stacks - completion of 5 more zones at current level when playing with other players and not in a party adds 15 minutes
• removed if player leaves zone multiple times before completion
• no effect in party

notes:

• could be in quest form
