Ok, I don’t see a more appropriate place to put this…
(2:21:55) …Party Finder was originally a discussion that we had for how to support the Dark Citadel… but it is now benefiting all the other activities in the game as well.
They first discussed a party finder only once Citadel was under development. Not when they first added Uber bosses + boss mats on rotation. Not when people clamored for a more practical way to form pugs. Oh ok then.
