Aether is always still locked - Raiding in NA Party Finder sucks everywhere else.

Balmung never had a sizable raiding population. Anyone on claiming so is ignorant.

The raiding servers on crystal were Brynhildr and Goblin during early EW and ShB

Probably the biggest piece of misinformation on here.

Since you can bring your own better buffs to other servers as well and repair from other teammates during a fight, we really need to move the raiding scene from Aether. I have no idea why the community does this to themselves, and the raiding buffs aren't worth it. If you think they do, you're completely insane. SE should take action to resolve this, but in all honesty, the problem is a community problem in NA.

I'm kinda glad Primal players are having a bad time now. Buncha bozos killed their own PF scene for no reason, why? Join an Aether PF and it's 50%+ Primal players...

god forbid people want to play with other people from aether because its the main hub for it

oh the drama !

Honestly "go to Aether" is a legit issue and PF needs to rebuild on the rest of the DCs too instead of expecting people to travel.

Lessee.

Do you have an active FC on Primal, Crystal, or Dynamis?

Do you like crafting stuff that uses timed node materials and not like being forced to depend on paying MB prices every time you do?

Do you like selling stuff on the MB? Or even having access to any inventory capacity but your backpack and saddlebag?

Do you like going to your house (wait you have one?) or apartment often?

WELL BUDDY! THEN I GUESS YOU DON'T GET TO BE A RAIDER unless you have a static! Because you can't do ANY of these while you're trundled out to Aether to get a group together in a decent period of time! And you'd better go to Aether ahead of time too because there's no guarantee you'll even be able to get in at the hour you actually want to raid, so that's even more time you're locked out from all of the above!

Yeah. C'mon playerbase you can do better. Fix it.

Preferably before it's Aether's turn to be the host datacenter for ranked PvP. Wait, we've already had Crystal and Primal, have we had Dynamis yet? I forget. That means you can probably bet the deed to Buscarron's Druthers it's gonna be Tuesday or the season after that, because I doubt the SE of today's going to be observant enough to skip Aether and not just cycle blindly through the DCs going forward ...
