Guild Wars 2

The option to join other party members in an overflow server is an excellent addition.

However, at off peak times it is sometimes hard to actually get onto an overflow server.
Possible to also have an option to “join an overflow server” ?

There is such option, no? I joined many times party member in OF by clicking right button on member and “Join in something something”, it doesn’t say that it’s an OF, just the place.

There are many times I want to go to overflow just for spam-free RP. Please, add this feature!

In order to do this, you need to have at least one member in an overflow you could join in. And if you can’t get one of your members in an overflow, then you pretty much can’t party together (because you cannot join in a main server that’s not your server). Fractals is one such dungeon that requires everyone to be in the same overflow (if you come from different servers).

Hence, it is my belief that the OP is asking for the choice to jump into an overflow server without the need of another player in his party already being in an overflow. In that case, I think it is truly something we need to facilitate partying.

Two solutions…

1. Automatically go to an overflow when zoning in.
2. Ability to right click mini map and choose “go to overflow”.

2 seems to be the best option, at most you would double the maps being fed through the servers, except in areas already having an overflow.

All chest and resource nodes, however, would have to have character limits, even across overflows/servers and is, what I assume, a hang up on releasing guesting.

@Shadowsong Oh I get it now, you mean play in OF with friends which are on different servers. If that’s the case I think it would be less necessary when then include guesting.
