Party Finder QoL idea

It would be convenient if these parties could be advertised across worlds, but still remain same-world parties and still require them to switch worlds before joining.

Yes this is what I meant. Fix them not being advertised across all worlds. You still need all players to travel to the same world, and they should still function like a same world party with full rewards. If that isn't possible, that's what should be fixed.

Need is a strong word. You don't even need a full party to run these if people have decent gear. I can't imagine it's hard to fill a party right now.

Having a same world party being advertised on a cross-world basis would be confusing to newer people. What you're asking for would require a change in how the parties function and that's just not going to happen. If you're really into maps, there's probably a discord or CWLS for it.

I said "need to be on the same world" because two or more people can't do a map together if they aren't currently on the same world. The sentence wasn't about difficulty of map enemies. Yes you could duo the whole thing but most people prefer to get through them faster and have a large number of maps contributed by many players, run them in sequence like a train. The way I imagine people replying on the forum is a lot different than reality lol. Surely these people can't find a way to disagree with this suggestion, I thought.

Maybe it's just my world but map PFs are usually slow to find people and are sometimes cancelled before anyone joins; that makes maps looks like dead content. Not so much right now because it's a new patch, but further out yes it slows down. The main reason for the suggestion is to improve participation in treasure map content. It would be very helpful if any recruitment drive was visible on all worlds instead of a single world. I think it's better for the game to not have a world-only tab in the PF, instead make all advertisements cross-world and make people literate in using world travel.

Yeah I have that and participated a lot personally. When I bother making suggestions on the forum it's just because I think something will improve the game in general for everyone, for attention of the devs / community team.

I get where you're coming from with this idea, but this isn't some kind of easy fix to mess around with PF's function.

Maps are casual and somewhat niche. There's so much more going on at the start of a patch cycle and plenty of reasons for people not to do them. People that have done their share might have to be in the mood for it, especially if they're going to PF and dealing with random people running off with a bunch of loot from someone else's run. I would generally prefer to do it with friends I can trust not to be greedy.
