Summoning Stones for filling parties

[Zenaku]

"You are being summoned by <Original summoned stone players name> Do you accept?" Yes/No.

I just had a hardcore Demon Soul Dark Soul flash back... XD

Soul Signs ftw :P - I'd hope they can reduce the amount of free teleports per zone with this idea, but I like this idea either way. A nice way for a large parties waiting for an extra to get going faster .

Can stop this: "White mage left, everyone take an hour break" lol


@Zenaku

I dont think this should be relegated to only Free Companies because then it encourages you to not party outside of your group - more elitism kind of nonsense.

Also to answer why a person wouldn't just teleport to location and walk I think its made fair by the fact it needs 3 people already in location.

Its good when you are far in a camp and you cant get out easily without that extra person. Could put a summon debuff on the summoners (or just the main summoner) too so that you need 3 different people each time you want to summon one person (to prevent 3 people summoning an army).

Also for the summon action can I recomend WoW's system? You just right click on the portal to support it, easier and less obtrusive XD.

Seeing how free company are the guild system in FFXIV what the point of having summon a party if everyone going to do dungeon finder that just teleport inside a dungeon with random people with diff worlds?"Not if you doing endgame then you just do it with your free company/linkshell" Having a simple teleport system to teleport anyone to your area seem like a cheat and waste of the dev team to even make mounts or teleport crystal.

Sorry but my idea make the most sense you don't really need the teleport someone to your area when they can simple teleport to the crystal near the camp and get there within 1-4m if you watch the alpha video there a crystal in every area and you can reach anypoint in the map within a short amount of time.

The only teleport that make sense is free company/linkshell having perks not sure where you getting people would not party outside there group when no one would be doing that to start with. Remember we have dungeon finder where we can simple join any dungeon within 1sec everyone would be doing that vs finding a camp and partying seeing how yoshi-p said in 2.0 party camp would be that great vs other content they releasing for exp. I see more people standing around in city or there fav spot and joinin dungeon with random people around servers then looking for people on there own worlds.

Also the free company teleport is not for elitism is help out casual linkshell also that want to do dungeon with there own ls.

i just don't see SE adding a system where you can teleport anyone at any time at any spot what would be the point of teleport crystal / mount the only people who end up using it would be people who play by themselfs seem like a lot of time for the dev to make all that to end up making a teleport system that allow anyone to teleport anyone to any spot in the game i understand that you think having 3 people it the area would make it fair but i still think it a cheat system for people who don't want to simple teleport to teleport crystal A and walk 2m to the camp on mount it just save you 2-4m.

That just my opinion on this matter and i don't see SE adding a system like what the op is asking something like summon stone outside dungeon and such yes but not a stone you carry and can summon someone not if it's a perk for your free company/linkshell and you summon everyone that make more to sense to me.

A) What I'm saying isnt 'exactly' what the OP is saying since I want less teleports in the first place
B) If you've ever been stuck deep in a monster camp there is no way for a person to teleport to aether and walk to you, you either have to come back out or they dont get in. (Monster camps are not dungeons, and I do hope they are in ARR)

The system OP is suggesting requires multiple people and also requires a farmed/bought item - this is entirely different then the aether teleport system so there is still point to the either system. But like I said before I'd like to see the aether network nerfed and other transport system introduced (not the OP's point again, just mine).

I said only free companies being able to use the teleport spell would cause elitism because then you'd be even less likely to go outside of your group, causing more "group behavior" which is pretty much elitism in this game.

Making it easy to use PUGs is good, its true we have a content finder but there is still the players who are on your sever (friends of friends, Free company of free company kind of stuff, someone in one of your LS).
