Operations

Operations are group missions similar to alerts or raids, and are what make the open-world magic possible. Up to eight players will be queued up in a starting instance to defeat a challenge alongside their iconic ally. After they win this challenge, they will go out into the open-world to take on the next stage of the operation. Players can split up in smaller groups to accomplish certain objectives, but they will find others require the entire group working as a team.

Access
In order to enter a Operation, players must queue up using On Duty Menu (Default PC Key 'Y'), and choose appropriate roles they wish to fulfill. They will then be placed in a queue that searches for other players who wish to do the same Operation, and be prompted to enter when an instance is available.

Players are required to have the Hand of Fate, Origin Crisis and War of Light pt 1 DLC's in order to do 4-8 man operations.
