So I recently realized that you can group with others cross server for chatting and such. I know that eventually Anet will implement the Guesting system, but I’m curious what is possible now.

I’ve read a few random quotes saying that its actually possible to run dungeons together, and join friends in the same overflow. I don’t get many changes to just test this though, but I tried the “Join Member” or whatever in a Lion’s Arch overflow, and while it did claim to work (it changed zones, he appeared on my map), I ran to his blue dot but didn’t find him. So I’m a bit unsure as to the validity of the above.

I had to log out before I would try and test anymore, but does anyone have details on what is and isn’t possible right now?

- Are dungeons possible cross server right now?
- Are overflow zones possible cross server with the “Join Member” menu option?
- Are non-overflow zones treated the same as overflows and eligible for the “Join Member” command?

Thanks for your time.

I’m not sure about dungeons, but it should be possible to join party members in the same overflow server (I can’t say for sure if that’s true even if they’re on different home worlds, but I would think so?). If it’s not working for you right now I’d say that’s the system messing up, because it’s worked fine for me. Last I checked you weren’t able to join someone in their main server, only in an overflow.

I went on an AC run about 4 hours ago with 2 party members in IoJ and 3 in SoS, so yes you can do dungeons cross-server. You should also be able to join parties and meet up with people in overflow servers – maybe he had left LA overflow?
