How is this server

Yes, my FC is focused on our members needs. We have some end game focused members, but most of us are not. In fact, I recruited 2 new members who are also new to the game and it's been lots of fun, since we are chatting a lot! =D

As for RPing, it would be nice to actually RP instead of joking around. I have 4 IRL friends on my FC with me and since we are very close the jokes are very confusing to people around us! XD

Well, the LS would be great to do, as it'll leave people's FC slot free. Just PM me in game, I should be on tonight around midnight CDT. EDIT: RPing in game usually involves whatever scenario the people involved come up with. Usually this ends up being a tavern talk or political stuff, but there can be Rping during dungeon runs as well. I do it to take a break from the humdrum find this, kill this, fates of the game and develop my current character's personality.

I unfortunately won't be on tonight, but I could probably get in touch tomorrow-thursday for sure.

Ok, I'll see if I can jump on then, prolly after dinner.I'm a Junior in University, so my homework schedule's been pretty demanding this semester. So, what kind of LS do we want it to be?Tavern talk, something that runs parallel to current main story plot (and doesn't spoil it for those that haven't gotten up to 50 yet), political intrigue, etc?I'm thinking a little bit of tavern talk and parallel to the main story to make it believeable. One of the founders of the LS could have the ability to sense others with the Echo, but only when they're within arm's reach. Maybe they made it so that they could keep abreast of the threats of the world that haven't reached the Scions' ears yet, or to keep tabs on those similar to them and hear their tales.Whoever knows, they offer a linkshell to those they've found and trust.Eventually others will hand out the shells, but for now it's just the founders and their dream of a close-knit community outside the confines of the Scions and city-states.

Hello everyone! I am a new player on PS4 and admittedly am used to how the WoW population was. Spamming shout in cities to find groups and for general conversation. That is nonexistent in ARR. I'm just looking for the most effective ways to interact with the community here. Duty finder was a pain as an Archer as it took forever to get a group and then when the healer left 2 pulls in we were forced to quit. That was just Sastasha so that's probably why no one was queued for it. I'm scared to level too much more without running it first. Just looking for some community interaction. My FC has been great just no one running the lower level stuff. Thanks everyone!

Hi Scorp! Welcome to the server, but it's unfortunate you ran itno such a bad experience already. Especially in lower level dungeons, queueing as a DPS can be difficult as there is an abundance of people in those roles all doing the same and not enough tanks or healers. Square put certain measures in place to attempt to encourage those other roles but its not 100%.

That being said, most people shouldn't drop out of a low level. If you have real concerns, I would ask some people from your FC to help, even if they're not running lower level stuff just because they're you're mates and they should. Otherwise you could attempt to start a group via Party Finder and hope enough people join up with you, or at least queue with a larger group (queues pop real fast when you have a tank with you). Don't spam shout but feel free to use it every once in a while, primarily in the main cities.

Good luck though!
