Question is in the title.
The only negative I can think about it is that It has a pre quest to it. Though it is very short. The reason why i ask is because Dragon PQ is the fastest pq or 2nd fastest. And its the only PQ that gives out weapons. It also gives ambition and will-power like the others.
I just don't see why no one wants to do it.

Because everyone just wants to grind at LHC, or anywhere solo. Even with the revamped party quests, that are now much better, exp and reward-wise, a very low amount of people do them. Escape! Party Quest is also really fast and gives an easy million exp within 7 mins, if you do it correctly.

People still probably believe the boss casts Damage Reflect. I never did DRPQ until a month ago, because I didn't realize they removed the skill from the boss and I feared that skill.

Contrary to belief, people do Escape, Hob King, and Kenta PQ all the time, but they don't do DRPQ.

Yeah KentaPQ usually had some people doing it. I've got my glasses pretty fast.
KentaPQ is one of the best ones in terms of traits, it gives willpower, ambition AND charm.

The funny part is, DRPQ gives the most exp out of all the 120+ PQs.

DRPQ is the most popular PQ in KMS for 120+ by far.
Dunno why.

Because people DC in the stage between bosses.

My friends and I PQ often, and DRPQ is (in my opinion) more glitchy and causes people to disconnect more than other party quests.
The boss sometimes doesn't even spawn before the flying obstacle stage if the others are done too fast.

It does the reflect animation but almost all of the time the skill isn't working properly
I haven't actually experienced the reflect after** Ascension (when I rejoined MS).

Pretty sure another reason is that there are hardly any players in Mardia. Demethos has the same problem. I have never pq'd with anyone else other than guildmates, and we've only done DRPQ a few times. I would like to see lots more people do it; the weapons from the pq are actually decent. (And I want a machlear TT)

It has the reflect animation still, but the purple reflect icon above its head means nothing. It's a part of Dragonoir. And the "reflect" skill is just a defense buff now.

You know what's odd, people seem to do the party quests that give the lesser amount of experience more often.

Or they do them to simply avoid being DC'd by a glitchy as hell PQ.
I've never DC'd from doing DRPQ, but plenty of people I know DC all the time in the PQ.
Rather be safe than sorry, IMO.

Pretty sure because is kinda boring (same for hob pq) and the reward is not even good for most people who already have a decent weapon.

People don't PQ just for experience.
Kenta's Goggles and Von Leon Belts are far more useful, for most people, than anything you can get from DRPQ.
Although I must say that my alliance's PQ-enthusiasts group used to do all four (Kenta, Escape, Hob, and DR) every day, for a good long while.
