Please make the excellent Party Finder feature more obvious

[Garlen]

This is a great feature. Set parameters for exactly the type of party you want to create, and wait for people to join. Or, browse all the available parties and simply join one you want. This can completely replace people shouting nonstop in places like Mor Dhona.

Unfortunately, there's usually only a few parties ever listed in Party Finder, as I'm guessing no one knows about it. The Active Help tooltip for it only pops up when you actually find and open the feature, which is hidden in the Social menu. SE, please either implement this as part of the Duty Finder (maybe as a separate tab in the duty finder?), or at least make the Active Help tooltip open immediately upon login for every person (only once, of course). More people need to know about this feature!

yeah i think embedding it in duty finder would be the best way to get more people to use it.

I agree.
It doesn't make sense placing it in the social tab. It should be in the duty finder.

When I started looking for it I went immediatly to DF. And I havent figured where it's placed until I went back to the patch notes and read that it's placed in the social tab.

When I shouted for players today for quests I made them join through party finder lol. Gear checking and promoting the tool in one go! Really hope this takes off.

Yeah I had to do an advance search to find a thread about this because last night I didnt see it in the DF. I was beginning to think it wasn't there and in the next major update.

I was like " I could had sworn something about some lobby, party build option was suppose to be here" Glad I found this thread. Need to bump and spread the word I hate shouting save that for item sellers and funny guys.

I agree, it needs to be more obvious! Every time I've checked it, there's been one person using it... ><

Yes please make party finder more obvious. I usually accessed duty finder through the duty menu and party finder isn't there. People are already used to duty finder and naturally don't like to change to adapt to new technology, you shouldn't keep new technology like the party finder a secret and hard to find.

Also, why does the crystal tower quest say crystal tower is now unlocked through duty finder and there is no mention of party finder? SE isn't advertising party finder like it should. If party finder doesn't become useful because of it's poor advertisement and hard-to find problems, noone will use it myself included because it will be a waste of time rather than a feature that has great potential.

Bumping this.
