    Seems like such a huge waste given that they have the biggest locations to actually explore, and some of them would be desired sightseeing for fans of the games they're based on (like Final Fantasy Tactics, Nier, and now Final Fantasy 11).
    Since the party finder won't let you queue into an alliance raid without at least one person in each of the three parties, I suspect there's something in its coding that likewise makes it impossible to go in there by yourself.

    Same for PVP maps – I'd love to explore those.

    I don't think those are actually the raids, though – they're just field instances that look exactly like the raids.

    Surprisingly I hadn't considered that. Though I wonder if it's a way to ensure certain mechanics can be resolved, like the Ivalice water canals needing each alliance to interact to unlock the path.

    Explorer mode for all Alliance Raids would be so lovely to be implemented, and if really not possible, giving the other alliances an equivalent to the Nier Overworld Map would be a next step help to allow Some exploration and gpose sposts

    Most likely the environmental mechanics would already be completed, the way they are in regular dungeons in Explorer mode. Things like the falling boulders in places like Mt Gulg or the Heroes' Gauntlet, or the sky at the end of the Dead Ends.
