    Fairly hard. Which is why the lack of a proper chat function is so frustrating. When I play Overwatch, I tend to slip into the 'commander' role and offer guidance and propose plans to my team. It works out well often - sometimes tunnel vision is shattered and people begin playing more effectively. In FFXIV, however, I can't chat in real time - I have to rely on predetermined buttons that don't often convey the nuances of what can turn a game around. Worse yet, I've made a lot of friends in Overwatch simply by being able to chat properly. That isn't possible in FFXIV.

    Maybe they need to allow in team chat, as long as they don't allow you to chat with the other team, like in frontlines or rival wings.

    That is what we used to have and they removed it.
