Why dont you use RAID FINDER?

[Jib]

So i did Byakko EX, i try to use raid finder as in my mind it is the best way to find players that have done it....

YOU arent using it? why?

I remember back in SusanoEX and LakshmiEX it was almost instant queues.. nothing now...

it is just all through group finder..

to say this pic was taken this saturday, Europe(London time GMT), at around 16pm .. I mean in the weekend not pop for over 1h.

(I queue as a Healer)

It did fill up to 1 tank left and then it went down.. over and over again...

Why arent you using it folks?

Because the normal DF player is barely better than a monkey... The more content I do through PF the better as I actually know quite a few good players from my DC now.

this is not Duty finder...this is RAID FINDER, with raid checked COMPLETED! .. i mean if a player has completed it, that is what im looking for.. many times through PARTY finder ppl lie.. I dont get it.. Is it because it is too soon and not enough ppl have completed yet? I mean it is a very simple EX primal compared to others in the past...

The only time it was even usable was when Soph EX was a thing and still back then most of these ended as wipes in my experience. Any player going through auto matchmaking in higher end content is asking for trouble. Also the best players know to avoid that feature like the plague.

Using the Raid Finder, you have different people to compete against every time, while in Party Finder, if someone gets a drop you have one less person to lot against (unless of course they loot and scoot). Also you have instant queues each and every time it's flagged up since already in party, no waiting between each run.

Yes I get your point perfectly, if you want to FARM.. yes that makes perfect sense. But if you want just one time quick run of it.. why not use it? ..many of us play this game with restricted times, many of us are "good"players but only have 30m on a evening to play.. it would be GREAT.. to get a system where u queue and u get competent players to do a quick kill... that has worked in the past.. again my experience with Sophia, Susano and Lakshmi attest to this.. dont get what is going on with this fight at the moment

You might end up with stacked jobs that kills/makes it harder to do the Tank LB3 strat which is a widely accepted strat right now on NA/EU for Byakko.

Party comp was one of the reasons barely anyone used it for Zurvan EX either. (Most popular party comp for Zurvan EX was 1 tank in NA/EU, RF forces 2)

thks that is a valid point

Matched parties doing RF:Practice ignore LB gauge penalties, and selecting RF:Completion forces a party compositon that doesn't get a penalty.
