Every time you fail a run (ie, completed but not timed) you get a “mote of regret” added to your currency tab.You can fail a key up to 5 times before it downgrades. Variation on the above… same thing but keys have 5 charges.If you keep failing something and want a new key, go to the Oribos vendor and reroll it for one less key level.

Just let players play the game how they want. People can run it over and over until they win. Instead, I say we just all agree that this system isn’t really working for the players and try something else. I mean, this is what happens already, but you put a time limit on it and now people are extra sensitive about it. Not in any malicious sense, just in that players will start running those 5 minute timers and demanding expectation in that window (or up to the first boss, as you suggest) and anything that goes poorly will result in people just bailing to “save their key”. A grace window is a bandaid on the current system… and yes, it is exploitable. Like I said above, what’s needed here is a core design change. Blizzard sure loves their RNG lately… but I guess they figure if they make WoW effectively gambling simulator they can entice people into RMT for subs and boosts, right? >.< Being able to reroll your key is just another layer of RNG that Blizzard added in 8.1 but it amounts to the same thing. I’ve never been a fan of it because, as you said, it’s RNG whack-a-mole until you get to try again. What I said above is clearly the design intent, but it kinda sucks. The only thing it saves players is busywork and RNG to get their key back in very select situations.
