Please add clearance condition to Group Finder

When you reach this level of choosiness, it's time to start using a guild or a channel to organize groups of people you trust. Putting more and more checkboxes into the game isn't the only way of organizing. You can also meet people, decide if you want to group with them again, and go from there.

Party Finder already has too many checkboxes. It could basically have two options for "relaxed" and "serious business".

Instead of showing who cleared Primals and Coils they could show the health percentage of how far a player got. For example if a player has never seen the heart phase in Titan ex it will be at 65. At 55% we know that player is on the heart phase. At 50% it is adds, landslide and bombs phase. At 30% it super bombs. This will give party leaders an idea on how much of the fight is known and a decision can be made right there and then.

People who disregard PF goals or overestimate their skill are going to join someone's group regardless, this would just shuffle them into PFs started by people who are super close to a clear but just need a competent team - further causing frustration for those players. Not to mention it would kinda suck for anyone with an alt character looking for a quick clear on content they know by heart on their mains.

You're going to spot the newbie pretty quick once that myth message pops up anyway, so if it's such a big deal, just back out and kick em.

....TL/DR: Install a checkbox where you can start looking for a group of players with a previous win as mandarory to enter.

Not bad, but to be fair, I think it is important to make it job specific. ^^;
i.e. if someone only has won it by a BRD, then we will be failed to join as a WAR.

This information is already stored in the system as there is "job specific first time clear bonus" for guildhests.

I agree with this. I'm tired of joining farm or kill groups only to have someone hoping for a carry come screw it up. Then the party disbands. It won't create more elitism cause it's already there "no myth bonus or kicking" anyone? It will just ensure that a few bad variables can be removed from your farm group before they get the chance to scum it up.

If you need a clear, make a kill or a learning/kill party.. That's what they're there for. If you're good with all mechanics but haven't beat it , /tell the leader of a farm party.

There are lots of people who practice in progression that don't get the kill simply because of a bad group and not individual talent. There are also lots of bads who clear content simply because they had a good group and get carried. Having the clear achievement doesn't mean a thing.

Honestly, I'm not against this feature if it gets implemented. I don't believe it would have a severe impact to most people except those who want free carries. People with clears but are not experienced can still get the boot. All this does it keep people from lying their way into a group.

This post summarizes what should have been said from this topic. There is currently no fool proof way of filtering out people as several of the previous posters have pointed out the loopholes of OP's original suggestion. The rationale behind it is clearly understandable but it would be difficult to force implement this as a system feature.

You would be better off to do some networking and probably get invited to some of the farming LS where people who are decent enough gets in for the sole purpose of painless farming.

No need to type your Lodestone URL if you're on a PS4. Put it through a URL shortener like bit.ly next time you're on a browser and then you'll have way less to type.

Sounds pretty convenient for you, now that you've already had your "first time" and have had your chance to learn the mechanics. How do you expect newer players to ever get into these dungeons, if experienced players are blocking them from joining?"

The players that cleared first were all new as well. Only difference is they learned and got good while the current groups of new players can' t be bothered to learn and get good and only want their clear and shiny so they NEED experienced players to "help" them through.
