    Boo hoo.

    Now what if you were in the Team who needs like 4 people or you will fail. Might as well just leave and take no marks with 0% chance of getting someone to help.

    I was in Cure ground the other day, and our fourth player dropped out. So it was just three of us, just as we reached the first gate someone joined mid match, caught up and helped out.
    We got the optional with a couple of seconds to spare and went on to finish the instance.

    If that person hadn't joined it wouldn't have been such a happy ending I can tell you.

    That mechanic is "dodgy" at best.

    I was in an STF Pug the other day, 3 people left, and I left after them, I got a timer. Sometimes I go into STFs see 3 afkers and leave, and I don't get a penalty. or sometimes I do get a penalty, it depends on the games mood.

    Yep no surprise it is buggy.
