Experiance points parties (or rather rank point parties)

I am posting in hopes that the removal of the fatigue system will bring about a change in the way we rank up. I really miss partying, it was something i was looking forward to as i awaited ffxiv beta. I am not disappointed with leve-quests, however i think there should be more options/ways to rank and level up. I have been in a few parties myself inb4 flaming "parties do exist, you gotta look for them". No i know, but we need a better search function. Those in favor of adding rank/level up to the search list and a looking for group icon next to our name say aye! It would make more sense now that surplus is gone.

:cool: Heres further hoping that the broken skill chain (Battle Regiment) system will be fixed soon.

I really want exp parties as well. Leves just aren't cutting it and once fatigue goes away, leves REALLY won't cut it.

I'm up for open field parties, but unless it was substantially more convenient than FFXI's way of doing things, I'd prefer that the devs continue to focus on beastmen camps and instanced dungeons as the future for SP. Something about standing around doing nothing for hours just to get a group together to go stand around repeating the same thing for hours doesn't appeal to me like it used to.

At least these quest hubs and raids have some small semblance of variety.

If they could find a way to quickly throw together a group when you wanted to and have easy access to get out to a location and grind a bit, I'd be all for it. Something tells me, however, that might be what they're aiming for with the aforementioned beastmen camps.

Aye.

SP will be gone and be replaced with Experience Points when Physical Level is gone. So no...not rather rank points, its gonna be experience points ;)

Aye aye Sir!!

Grinding Parties FTW!!

I'm thinking 1.18 is going to change the way we SP, possibly push us into partying entirely.

Sounds like we are getting a seek party tag/improvements to party search in 1.18!
