I recently returned to FFXIV a couple weeks ago; started with a fresh character. Needless to say, I'm far behind my new linkshell friends who are downing Ifrit and the King on a regular basis.

My highest class right now is 39, and I can't recall a time where I've seen someone shout for an instance grp. This would be helpful for me in tracking down players w/ the same current goals.

Standing in Uldah (where everyone seems to cluster up on Durandal) and shouting is not my idea of "immersion." Biggest recent example of this same Failure = SWTOR.
