Locating members of your party....

[lordshaq]

I have not been playing this game long, I haven't had as much time as I anticipated.. but lately i've had more time and i've been giving it a good try. So far there is one thing that baffles me - Parties, and losing party members. Is there an easy way to locate where your party members are? I was only in a party of two, me and my friend.. and I found that we got seperated and lost from each other in the field very easily and it was a pain to locate each other. I can't imagine what a bigger party would be like....

Dem big ass parties jus stand around and all run toghether.

You can do one of those things.

1) Tell your friend your <pos> and have him do the same to you. Typing out <pos> will show your position on the map and just use the grid to locate the area where the other person might be.

2) Go into your map and choose the first option, then press right or left a few times until you see a blue marker show up on the field. The blue marker is where your friend is at.

Thank you for the information, I will check that out!

One thing I liked about EQOA was the fact that it was easy to locate your party members when seperated. They should do something like EQOA on FFXI and put indicators on the compass showing the direction party members are in.
