Party

Much like many other online games, DFO allows you to team up with other people in a party to complete a dungeon. Partying comes with many benefits, the most apparent being the extra combat power that another player offers. This extra help is a godsend when attempting to complete the higher levels of dungeons, King's road in particular, where the game actually recommends you be in a full party of four. Other bonuses come with being in a party, including an experience bonus at the end of a dungeon. When you are unable to complete a dungeon by yourself, consider adding a party member to help you get the job done.

Starting a Party

Start your own party to clear a difficult dungeon.

  • To start a party, open the party UI by hitting the closed bracket key (]) or by clicking “Party” in the Community Menu. Hit the “Create” button and fill in your party’s name by selecting one from the dropdown menu, or by writing in one of your own. Then select the maximum number of members for your party and click “OK.”
  • Only players in the same area as you see your party in their party window. You can invite other players to join by either left clicking on them and selecting “Join Party” in the character menu, or by using the “/invite” command in the chat bar (which you can bring up by pressing “Enter”). Advertise your party in general chat to sound the call even louder!

Joining a Party

You can also join someone else’s party.

  • Open the Party window to see all the parties in your proximity. Click on a party to see the name and class of everyone currently in the party. Click “Join” to request an invite to the party.
  • Another way to join a party is clicking on a player that you know is in a party and requesting to join via the player interaction window, which you can open by left clicking the player. Choose “Join Party” to request an invite to that party.

Monster Hunting as a Party

Hunting in a party certainly has its benefits. Party members could potentially save you when you’re in a tight spot or offer you buffs specific to their class. The game itself rewards party playing with experience specific to only party players.

  • To enter a dungeon together as a party, all party members are required to be in the same waiting zone directly before entering a dungeon area. Once all members are present, the leader of the party can enter the dungeon area.
  • Once in a dungeon, your party members can prove to be of great aid. Other than helping you defeat monsters, certain classes can give you buffs only accessible to them. The priest can even aid the group by healing his party members.
  • When any player picks up any item that’s of Uncommon rarity or higher, a die is rolled automatically for each player. The player with the highest roll wins that item.
