Ever since the data centers became able to play with one another through Party Finder let's share a few stories about the ups, downs and all-around of cross-world Party Finder!
Met some sweet guys on Odin, Shiva and Phoenix while trying to clear Zurvan. Our healer was hellbent on clearing while solo. We never managed it, always someone who derped and I cleared it later instead, but they were a blast to play with! Got them on Discord, should team up again.
I posted about something similar earlier today! (Warning, long and boring: http://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest.../blog/3254616/ )
But in general cross-world Party Finder has been one of the most fantastic new additions in recent memory, speaking from a relatively tiny server. It's finally possible to play with people and seek out help outside of peak times of day, and it makes the whole world feel less empty.
I had an awesome party this morning for hard primals! Did it first on my warrior and we had three heals, three tanks, and two dps. Once we discovered it was ALL the primals we just decided to stick with it and run all of them in an unstoppable train. An hour later I had my Minos Lux!
It went so smoothly I decided to try it with Astro after I was through with Dun Scaith. That was a full party of two tanks and dps asking for a solo heal. I don't think they realized it's ALL primals, not just ARR hard mode.
We knocked out every single one. The HW ones were a little difficult and we had a wipe on Sophia and one on Zurvan, but I solo healed every single one of those. :D the group stuck with it and didn't blame me for dying to stuff they stood in lol, and I raised everyone I could. BRD and MCH kept me supplied with MP when I needed.
I definitely urge everyone to get on a data center primal train! (Though maybe not a solo heal...or at least bring a SMN...)
I was going through MSQ on my alt, reached Nidhogg and behold, 30 minutes with DF and a wipe followed by everyone leaving. I put up PF thinking no one will hop cause it was early being a NA data center and me being European but less than 3 minutes my party was full. I thank them the moment we started the instance and got a reply "We got you fam" :') needless to say, got them warm fuzzy feelings. All around PF has been amazing for me. I got to farm birds, got to help random people run things... I love it!
