Does anyone actually raid?

It seems so hard to find ANY raid going up on.

When I'm looking in the listings for all towns, no one is hosting anything.

When I host, the only way people join is if I mega. Just seems so difficult to get something going.

Edit: This is West server.

The only raids I've been participating in is Royal Army to help supply the people looking for shards. I can still potion-taunt and face-tank some level 60 raids for people, but otherwise I'm pretty useless because of the lag. This game just isn't fun when I struggle just get smashes off and I might even disappear once the attendance is over.

I don't join pugs anymore because I just feel like a burden with my load times. Can't reliably carry parties that need help like I used to either because of my fps.

I regularly host all of S3 twice, Lako, Kraken, Havan, Panth, Jugg in S2 twice, and colhen raids almost daily.
Play during prime time. 2pm pacific onward really.

there's quite alot of people that just solo the raid, since its faster then making a party then killing the boss. I mostly duo or trio a raid

Yeah, I've just been soloing everything honestly. The only things I dont solo are s2 and s3 raids.

Since I've been using multiproc, I've been hosting S3 just fine with 30 fps.

Season 2 I mainly solo Phantenium, and Havan, the other bosses I just don't bother with.

Season 2/3 Ein lacher also has a chance to drop R7 scrolls.

Season 3 Ein lacher has a chance to drop an orange primary. I got a weapon prime yesterday from doing Ein Lacher Regina.

I'm feeling the same frustration tbh. Lately, it feels like a solo game especially if you don't play at prime time. Frustratingly lonely, unless if I have friends online to run with. Lol

It's possible to get a raid train going if you use a single mega then announce what you're going to run. Most likely people will stick around for almost the entire raid train.

I think part of the problem are hosts got tired of waiting for ages for people to join. At the same time, people don't always know if there's a boat up unless if there's a mega. I think there's an update coming up that might help with this problem, but I forgot the details of it since I haven't been keeping up to date.

@Xie it's known as quick joining. It shows all boats that are available and you can join in from the dock without having to look up the sign. it's really a useful aspect of the update since we don't have to depend on megas anymore (at least I hope) to find/join a boat. Also, lets not forget the chance of having the boat lag like crazy due to the recent updates hindering hosts from playing the game properly due to unplayable lag. No one likes it.

Rakushu

I started a party of 3-4 and host s3 raids....it got filled immediately when others see 3-4 ppl on a party
