How do you effectively recruit for your FC at endgame?

[Cinno]

The best time to do this would be just when a patch drops since that will be the time the servers will be most active

If you are going to send random /tell or invites you might also want to pay attention to profile messages

after creating 2 alts and a server transfer, I had a lot of random "blind" FC invites when I had a message on my profile saying that "blind" FC invites will be rejected and to send me a /tell

Yeah I do send the /tells, but I NEVER just send invites.. When I was leveling my alt it was literally the most annoying thing in the world. I send /tells but I never get any responses.. I dont know if they are ignoring them, if they have their /tells muted because of goldspammers, or if they just dont want to join. But when most of them dont even reply I have no idea why.

But both of you have given the good advice to wait until the next patch, which makes a lot of sense. I know quite a few people that are planning to come back just for the Deep Dungeon. That being said I would still be interested in what methods you guys use.. There has to be a more efficient way than just sending /Tell's to people..

SE should copy a function that's in FFXI that seems good on paper

Linkshell Concierge

basically you can leave a linkpearl with an NPC who keeps a list of Linkshells that are recurring for members
