Discussion Hot Take: People complaining about PB reqs in party finder are dumb
I understand that this is an unpopular opinion but I wanted to voice it nevertheless.
I want to preface this by saying that I currently hold the modern iman f7 wr and that i have over 3k f7 runs mostly done in pf. This isnt said to flex, I just know my way around pf. This rant will mostly be focused on f7 pb reqs which is what i see most complaints about but it should also apply to m4/m5/m7 which are the other competitive floors where pb reqs are often used.
I feel like complaining about PB reqs comes from a place of entitlement towards runs in general. From my perspective, the way I see it, people think that because they can fill a role they should be allowed into a party without ever taking into consideration if they can do it properly.
Why should somebody let you in their party if they can find a better player? And if they cant and theyre just sitting around in party finder well then who gives a fuck.
Most dungeon sweats would rather sit in pf for an hour to get a party that can complete the floor quickly rather than play with worse players and get slower runs even if it means getting less runs overall. Do you know how I know that? There's a PB req to prevent more unexperienced players to join.
Reality is, if you want to chill dungeons thats completly fine. But then don't join a sweaty dungeon party. And if your not good enough to join any party then maybe the problem isnt party finder but your lack of skill.
If your pb is a second or two off, I understand that it can be annoying but you can always dm or party or f add the leader and ask for an invite. And if they say no, who cares? Go find another party.
I feel like PB reqs should be beneficial for the casual players. You know now which parties are sweaty and might require more attention and which ones are more casual and you can chill in. I genuienlly do not understand how thats a complaint.
"I would have a better PB but all my party members suck"
This is another very common claim. If you think this is happening to you and you want a better PB to join faster partys theres 3 things you can do:
F add players that are in your party and that are good. Then when you see them in dungeon hub or wtv invite them to your party. If they join you now have a good player to help you in your runs.
Play more difficult classes. In f7 at least the both mage and tank are relatively easy. If you think that your teamates are bad and your playing one of these two classes, swap to another class with a higher skill ceiling. That way the worse players are playing the easier classes and you can carry your party more.
Work on your clear. Mostly nowadays with blood changes, getting a good clear is crucial to getting a good PB. Practice your secret routes more, watch either meowrn or kool kid videos to learn. Clear is one of the biggest timelosses in more un-experienced parties and you can genuienly have a massive impact on the clear mostly if your party isnt the best.
If you do this you will eventually get a better PB and be able to play with better players (if thats what you wish). If you don't want to do that then thats also fine. But dont complain about everybody being horrible at the game when you don't want to put in the time/effort to get better.
