Anyway, post below if you want to join us, looking forward to chatting with everyone again soon!

This has been a long time coming and I wasn't sure if I wanted to resurrect this LS or not. Still not sure based on how FFXIV is targeted at the solo player. There is group content using the Duty Finder and I've noticed people forming massive FATE grinding parties, supposedly very good XP too, especially against …
