How to join MPA?

[Typhoeus]

I don't really get how to join an MPA. I select the options that would seem like I am joining (such as parties showing 10/12 in total players), but I am never put IN a party and never see anyone else around when I enter the field. Any help?

Are you joining the existing parties or joining as a separate party? Either way they're more than likely out in area 2 either running aimlessly or heading to the boss.

If it helps any, free exploration is where most people do their MPAs.

Not being put in a party is normal.

When you're looking at a party to join in an area, the top option makes you join -that party-.
The bottom option makes you join -that room- in your own party.

For Arks Quests, the first and third areas of a multiparty area are single-party zones. You'll only see other players in area 2.

For Free Fields, areas 1 and 2 are MPAs.

If you don't see other players, they're probably in a different area or in the campship.

Or fighting the boss

As I was always trying to avoid multi parties, seems others are looking for them . Interesting
Good luck.

Why avoid them? O_o

[Seravi Edalborez]

If you did want to avoid them, for whatever reason:

Put a password lock on your party, and pick the bottom option just under where you type the password. This password locks your whole area. The top option just PW locks your party but not the area.

Thank you for the responses. Are MPA's the best way to level still?

Because it is annoying,


@Seravi Thanks but I knew. I was just saying this with no real reason behind. Just that some players want one thing and others want to have the opposite.

"it is annoying" isn't a reason. MPAs are the best way to get exp and drops since bigger groups result in a larger number of enemies. Even COs are easier to do. "it's annoying"? =/ yeah ok
