There is no reason why this game cannot set up specific parameters like this to suit THIS game's typical party.

I never once used the auto-group feature in XI, but I have to say, even XI's lfg system was loads better than the one XIV has. You could just /sea all xx-xx and ask around if nobody was flagged in your level range. The slowness of that system was because of players wanting to QQ over certain classes, which really was part crappy mechanics for classes such as DRG, and part elitist community. An automated LFG tool which groups people based on their role and not class/job will greatly help alleviate that problem. It's not going to be fun for new players to not get invited to a group because job x isn't as good as job y.


Care to give reasons instead of participating in what appears to be bandwagoning?
Sorry i didnt buy this game to play wow. If thats what you want go back to it. thank you.
