Party List

[Vili]

So you join a party, and you look at your party list, it is a jumbled mess, have a tank at the top, and another tank down near the bottom, DPS all over the place and your healers are spread out as well. Why is that? How hard is it to have it so it is sorted already when you join a party? It is done in the alliances when you do CT. Why not a normal eight man party?

Solution, make it so we can make a priority list on how we want our party list built. As a BRD, I like my healers on the bottom so it is easier to watch MP. I'm sure as a Healer they may like their tanks on the top or the bottom.

I know we can sort them ourselves, but we should not have to.

Greetings,

Though it will be some time after patch 2.2, we are planning to implement a feature that automatically sorts the party list so that it will group roles together when entering a duty.

If it already sorts Alliances into roles, then why isn't party set to roles?
Wish parties were originally set to sort by roles.

Im not sure if this is the case.... but other than YOUR character name being listed on the top....

I think the Party list is ordered by which the players join the group....

Ive noticed that if a player drops, and a new one is added, the new player is always the bottom of the list

So, basically i got a feeling that IF a pre made group could click the confirm button in order.... 2 healers first, 2 tanks second, 4 dps third, it should load in that order.... or maybe im off base here?

CAMATE!

Please give us a word on enabling us to sort FC/LS Member List by Name/Level/Job/Rank?

[iggi]

you do realize once you form a party, you open the party menu and can move the members around any way that pleases you.

A sort option would be useful but still doesn't save you the trouble of clicking it, when the game should really auto group like jobs together.

I don't think automatically sort the party list would be the solution. Tanks might be at the bottom where the list starts with dps.. Nothing changes should you want tanks at the top.. How hard is it for SE to understand that we want to set it to our own liking?.

For example: if Im on my tank I want: tank, tank, healer, healer, dps (who cares about dps right xD). On my healer: healer, healer, tank, tank, deeps. On my dps, it will list me on top always which is annoying.

Solution: a player can have a fixed "sort" (maybe per job?). Or is this so hard to program that we're talking about 2016 patch 5.0....

I don't mind setting PT members in the order I prefer when first joining a PT. What irritates me to no end is that they get all jumbled up again when you zone in/out of an instance.
