99% OF THE PLAYERBASE DOESN'T WANT YOU IN THEIR PARTY AFTER YOU CLEARED IT!

You have to pretty much wait a whole week, or get lucky enough to find a party who doesn't want 2 chests. And this system pretty much KILLS it for people who like to raid. It basically makes it so that we only get to play 2-3 hours a week, and then we're done. The rest of the week is logging on and checking the Party Finder to see if there's any people looking for a 0-chest clear so that you can actually have some fun.
Not sure if you are interested in them or not, but there used to be speed/parse/for fun runs listed in the PF frequently for some of the floors. However, last I heard in one of the raiding discords I’m in, someone was going around reporting the PF owners for parsing/advertising “parse runs”, so people have stopped putting them up, or set them to private and give out PWs to interested players in the raiding discords.

But I know what you mean. Sometimes I would like to go back into a fight and do it again, either for funnsies or to try and get a good or better parse or to just work on my rotation for the fight, but everyone wants 2 chests. Even some of the first-time clear parties just want 2 chests so it’s kind of like, welp.... I understand wanting the gear but at the same time, makes it boring for raiders that have already cleared for the week and just want something to do.


Unrelated, but pretty sure you were in a V4S clear group I was in this weekend. You were a great WAR, btw. :3 It’s too bad that you weren’t our first WAR, because then we would have gotten the people that wanted a clear their clear. :/
