Suggestion: Show the Job/Role of People Looking for Groups in Eureka

[Aurebel]

Just a suggestion to show the job or role of people looking for groups in Eureka. As I often see groups with too many tanks/healers and groups without any healer or only with one healer, I think this would help balance out the groups a bit.

They could perhaps have a standard LFG message which includes the job(s)/role(s) of the player, or show the job/role of the player beside their name when they write in /shout.

Wont player just /sh what job they are?

More often than not, people don't do that, but simply shout LFG or LFG + their level. Just a suggestion which might help. They could probably also include the level of the player looking for group as well, but this could be detrimental to lower levels looking for groups.

Ahh i see. Maybe they could allow a duty finder inside Eureka.

Unless your suggestion would somehow allow me to specify "I'll play literally any job, if you want me to," I would be dissatisfied with this idea. I can't imagine there are that many people that would indicate I WILL ONLY PLAY THIS ONE JOB when it's so easy to level jobs to cap.

I can only speak for myself here, but I do this because I have everything leveled and geared (at least to Eureka's level cap). Indicating my job is pointless. I run around as RDM because it allows me to solo-pop NMs and heal myself, but if a party demands another role for whatever weird reason that I consider justified (needing a tank to pop wraiths, or needing a tank in a low-pop instance are about the only reasonable requests I've ever seen), I'll certainly switch. If you want someone to be a specific role, try asking.

My suggestion to you would be level at least one of every role, and to fill these perceived needs yourself.
