Default Leavers ... a possible fix

In several areas, both pve and pvp, you can run into trouble when someone quits your party. This can obviously spell doom for any serious match or long quest, whether the quit was due to legitmate or illegitimate reasons.

Although henchmen aren't perfect, they are always available. Why not have a rule that goes something like:

10 seconds after someone leaves, bring in a henchman
they will be of the same class
they will have the same death penalty and base health remaining
they will have the same exhaustion and base energy remaining

I doubt you could exactly duplicate the skill set (although if you could it would be neat), and you certainly are going to get the AI rather than a human (I realize this could be better or worse); but even the basic henchies that are in the pve/guild areas would be a whole lot better than nothing.

The nice thing here is this can apply everywhere ... random arenas, gvg battles (presumably quits here are computer related), quests, anything.

What say you, good people?

If even a simple henchie replacement for leavers/quitters was implemented in this game, I might actually consider joining human groups again. A big /signed from me.

Oh, and they could duplicate the skill set...they do that already with the doppelganger.

They can even keep the name/appearance of the character that left, and merely tag (bot) or something after the name when replaced.

I had actually hoped they would implement this in the last update (apparently not )

Cool idea, but the same skills .... can cause bugs maybe, well we'll see ;p

A henchmen from the same class(same level) would be good ;p


Because if a tank quits the whole balance of the team will disappear and that will cause the rest of the people to die, unless there is an equal replacement for that quitter.
