Guild Wars 2

Hi all,

Weekend mornings I like to chill in game by having morning tea and mindlessly farming “Breaking The Ice” meta event in Frostgorge Sound. Killing an hour or so while I wait for my wife & daughter to wake up. As you know, this farm works best when you’re partied up. I’ve been fortunate to party up several times with the same group over the last while. We work well together without much verbal communication. We’ve added each other to our contacts list. But the problem is, I’m on the Crystal Dessert server & they are on a different server. When I log in, some times I see a ‘3’ on the little Contact icon in the upper left corner of the screen. Sometimes not. But by clicking the icon, I see that all 3 of them are online and in FGS.

Why do I not always see the ‘3’ listing them as online? Is it because they are on a different Megaserver? If so, how can I get to their instance so we can party up? I prefer to farm with them and would like to just join in with them rather than look for a random group on the Megeserver where I am instanced.

TIA

You can join the same instance as any party member by right clicking on them in the “party window” and selecting the “Join in …” option.

I don’t know what number you’re talking about on the upper left corner.

To get into the same map together, look and see if they’re actually currently in the zone you’re in (in this case, Frostgorge Sound). Send one of them a party invite. When they accept the invite, right click on their portrait on the party UI, and choose “Join in Frostgorge Sound”. That will pull you onto their instance of the map.

If you are already in a party together the game will also try to put you into the same instance as other party members.

Well, that seems simple enough. Thanks for the quick replies.
