Blizzard have announced that they’ll be instituting bigger punishments for players that leave Group Finder dungeons prematurely. Specifically, the deserter debuff which prevents players from joining another dungeon for 30 minutes. This comes in part due to many players leaving the Ara-Kara, City of Echoes dungeon after the first boss, since it drops a much wanted trinket.
We’re currently working on a hotfix that will implement the Deserter debuff for players who leave a Group Finder dungeon early.
This penalty will apply to early leavers in all Group Finder dungeons, not just Ara-Kara, City of Echoes.
Thank you for your feedback!
