Are they really adding cross-data center visit?

I wonder if this will be only visit other DCs but just the open world areas, or the duties (dungeons, trials, raids) will select also people from other DCs in Duty Finder. If it is also the second, I think some cross-DC linkshells would be appreciated.

I hope duties are included. You go from having one pool of players to three. Some people that can't get certain things done due to shift work might be able to.

It won't select people from other DCs in Duty Finder, because it would have to forcefully transfer their data center prior to you all experiencing the content together. For a feature like that it would have to decide what data center it is happening on and move everyone to it even if it harms their ping. That is not the feature they announced at all.

If you switch data center you will almost certainly be able to queue for duties though, just like you can if you do a paid data center transfer.
