Is there anything at all that can be done about one party member choosing to “boss rush” by himself while everyone else wants to kill mobs and get exp so this member kills the boss on his own and effectively screws us out of out exp for the dungeon. There needs to be a kick option of some sort implemented since he didn’t help out for anything in the dungeon except being dead weight until he killed the boss without our consent. We all wanted to do the whole dungeon. If he wanted to boss rush he should have made his on premade group instead of hijacking our LFP.

Voting system will be bad imo… it will only cause even more griefing issues.
Just go premake or deal with it… rainbow and sunshine doesn’t happen 365 days.
Just don’t follow the person.
Alone, it will take him quite a bit to do it, if he’s farming some item (Like arde in level 90 dungeon) at a relevant level.
Most people that are overleveled for a dungeon and just farming something have the decency to create a manual party instead of ruining dungeon runs for others.

We didn’t follow him but we still were only able to finish half the dungeon. And how are voting systems going to be bad? You’d have to get 3/4 people to agree to vote kick someone and that’s less likely for a group to hijack than for one person to just take the boss on alone. This isn’t a solitary issue, I’ve had at least 3 dungeons where someone wants to boss rush and if the rest of the group doesn’t, that person will sit out until its time to deal with the boss. How is that fair to me or anyone else in the group? Of course it’s not going to be rainbow and sunshine, but when there are only 2 dungeons a day people can do something should be done to help the dungeons progress smoothly.
The only way to make sure that the chances of a boss rush are the lowest is to create a manual party and talk it over beforehand. Even then, you have the risk of a party member changing their mind and running straight for the end. I know it’s not the easiest or the most efficient to wait and look for members when you can just search automaticaly, but if you find yourself constantly running into this issue, I would give it a try.
Sucks…
But boss rushers normaly look for premade partys. Who clearly state that they want to boss rush.
I would ask him kindly to refrain from queing into random matchmaker…
Could be a troll. Never had one of these.
And yes. I boss ruhs too.
But with premades of 2~5 people in under 3 minutes.
When all only want to rush xD.
And sadly… kicking per vote isnt an option.
Prone to abuse.
The only option is… to talk with him, when he runs off. And tell him.
“YOu can go level outside, we will call you when were at the boss for the cube. Might take 30 minutes for us without you.”
Outside of that… there’s no rule to … ehh … have teamwork in a teamplay mode… you can’t kick him for being a selfish player… who doesnt care about others.
I queued up for a run. Got a bunch of people level 95-100. They all just ran to the boss and killed it without saying anything in chat.
I even questioned why they were going to the boss, and they didn’t say anything. Wasted an entire dungeon entry because of it.
Never again queue 90 dungeon…
I would say refrain from queueing for 90 dungeon if you want exp, since that one is the only one people would do boss rush for anyway.
Just make a manual party.
I don’t get the point if getting in queue if you want to boss rush, just do it solo or make a premade.
I’v been boss rushing the level 175 dungeon solo for 3 days trying to get a ignition recipe.
these people should play solo game overall so it’s ok to kick them from whatever online games they’re playing .
Dungeon dont give that much exp at all, so rushing boss is more for siver and faster weapon farming if weapon drop in dungeon 
i just got my Arde dagger in sec boss rush dungeon xD
The point is auto matching usually get you into dungeon instantly, while you have to try entering for 1 hour just to get into dungeon with premade boss rush party.
nice joke hahahahaha
@OP, honestly? You can’t expect completely random people to act in accord to your wants and needs in a online game. If they aren’t breaking any rules (real rules btw, not standards set by some community) there’s virtually nothing you can do cept throw a fuss on forums (?).
Also, you’re going to be seeing a lot of this if you keep queueing for that dungeon - as it still takes a ridiculous amount of time to be able to enter dungeons with a pre-made party.
If you are capable or willing to solo the boss then solo enter it, don’t waste other people’s time or run. Solo entering is instant.
This doesn’t make any sense. If someone goes and ruins the dungeon for the whole party and ruins their run quota then why shouldn’t we be able to do a preemptive kick? If they pulled an entire maps worth of mobs it wouldn’t be against “real rules” but it sure should be something that shouldn’t be allowed via common decency.
It’s not. I wish that it’s instant. I failed many times.
aside from the “we want to kill all mobs” i yet have to discover a dungeon wich gives more exp than normal field maps >< the 240 dungeon gives trash exp and it feels like the devs forgot to add the triple exp to those…i mean come on 3500 exp for tanky mobs? x.x while map mobs gives 15000 on a decent level for exp
but why would he wanna “boss rush” all by himself in a group - why not just going in solo?
Didn’t bother to read this thread (sorry) but just making sure this one gets suggested at least once:
Make the boss room’s door locked until some minibosses/all the mobs on other rooms are defeated. I think this is how it works on some other mmorpgs.

That’s the point, common decency =/= rules. Nowhere is it stated that players must kill everything when joining a queue with 4 other random people - don’t forget that by kicking someone you’re ruining their run as well.
