Parties are groups of 2 or more players, sometimes also called warbands. Players of all levels may join the same warband. Party leaders can select loot types and party types to fit the group's needs. Some events like non-loot sieges and Valley of Death Tournaments will automatically create parties and add players to the party as they join the event.

Commands

/request Name of any person in the party to join an existing party. They do not need to request on the leader.

/invite Name to invite a player to your party.


Loot Types

The party leader has the ability to set the loot type for the party which determines how PvE loot is distributed. Note that looting someone in PvP is an entirely separate, solo endeavor. Loot options are located at the top of the party window.

Loot bags are visible on the ground for only 30 seconds, so it is important that members hustle to touch the loot bag for whichever system they choose to sue.

Assist - The player with the most participation in the kill has gets the priority to loot for a few seconds before it is opened up to the rest of the party.

Party Free - Anyone in the party can loot any bag. Players who are not in the party must wait for the party priority time to expire before they can loot. This loot type is often used when the group is collecting one particular item to turn in collectively, like Key Fragments for Ragi, Brandon, or Sirius.

Free - Anyone can loot a bag at any time, and they do not even have to be in the party to do so.

Party - This is the most commonly used party setting. Coins are automatically shared between all members of the party. Each player must touch the loot bag and select "Need" or "Greed" to draw a number between 0-100. Whoever scores the highest wins the item. Need supersedes greed.

Party Types

Press P to bring up the Social menu, and then select party. There the party members can see vital information about the party and the leader can select what type of party format to use.

Standard - Only the leader can invite and accept new party members. This setting allows party leaders to be selective about who joins the party.

Hidden - This party type is not visible on the map to other players in the party or to anyone else. Chosen players can see the positions of others if the party leader gives them permissions.

Open - Any ally player can join the party and every party member can invite new members. This setting is good for casual play.

No Leader - This party type does not have a leader, but any player can appoint themselves leader at any time.
