Cross World FATE in PF?

[Dyvid]

I'm surprised we don't have this.

Is this something the community would want? I know we saw Odin go bye bye because we just didn't get enough people in the time frame.

Cross world party participation in FATEs gets a bit wonky (I've heard) and doesn't count participation rewards the same as when you're partied with everyone from the same world. Same reason you can't put a PF up for The Hunt, and maybe a couple others.

At least, the last time I put it up in Bug Reports, it got shunted to Working as Intended.

Still it can get hard to find enough people for FATE so it would be nice to extend the pool across the entire Data Center.

Since you can't use World Visit while in a party, a cross world FATE option in party finder would be useless. You have to transfer to the world where the FATE is first then join a party, which is easily done through PF at that point.

Getting more people to show up is easily accomplished. We've got cross world linkshells and discords set up on Crystal for sharing cross world hunt and FATE info. People in the cross worlds will also relay the major FATEs and hunt trains to their same world linkshells before transferring (if they intend to go).

I set up a PF for a FATE earlier tonight and it automatically set up as a cross-world party.

Never mind, I thought I'd set it to FATEs but it went in as a general PF. Makes more sense.
