So I found out the hard way today that a player can join a party in the PF even if they can't do the Duty that the party is trying to find a party for. This essentially means that when you go to queue up for the duty, it will of course say that someone in your party does not meet the requirements. Unfortunately this means that your party will practically disband trying to find the culprit, so I am suggesting that SE fix it in one of two ways, either:
- Make it so that they can't join that duty unless they've unlocked it, though that would mean that they could still troll through unequiping their gear.
- Tell the Party leader who exactly is not meeting the requirements and why, there is absolutely no reason why this is not already implemented since it is necessary for you to know the problem in order to correct it.

Yeah, this has been a problem forever. It's better now, with the Locked Duty message, but it still happens.

That way the next person (one who is qualified) doesn't get turned away by the spot being filled.
The second is better in that it would also help with ad hoc groups being put together among friends, FC members, linkshells, etc.
