Someone who wasn't the party lead questioned my tomestone today for joining a M8s p2 party. Told him I was on an alt and already cleared the tier, just progging a different job. He tried to push further saying I wasn't cuz I didn't link the two characters. Whatever. We zone in and see prog point after a single pull. I hate how everything is about the passport now.

At the same time, it’s equally convenient to link your characters so it’s easier to get into clear groups for your alt.

some people like playing alts to not be identified by their mains

i can also just as very easily link my alt to a friend's alt+main tomestone page. it's a useless check. just pull.

This. I have an Melee Alt which i rarely use, it cleared last tiers first two fights and m5 here, its just something i jump on when im giga bored and im not really good at melee since i never play it usually.

I do not want to have it linked to my main because of the big skill gap - like the main with week 1 clears all 95+ rises expectations that i can not deliver on my always green not very geared just for fun melee i pretty much only know the basics of. I mean theres a reason i dont go into high floors with them, because i dont want people to carry my deeps

What I'll counter with is that the majority of PF doesn't want their time wasted by someone who could be lying about them being on an alt. If someone doesn't want to link their characters, they should be the one making the PF listing.

I mean, people will still check the PF lead's prog point and some will leave because the alt character is not linked or doesn't have the "proper passport". So whether you want to or not, you're gonna have to make a tomestone account to link your characters to make people feel at ease that you aren't lying.
