Let's Party
Spend less time organizing and more time playing.
Let's Party is a multilingual group and raid recruitment addon created specifically for Chronicles of Arcadia. It combines the game’s native PartyBoard with keyword invitations, configurable announcements, recruitment automation, public event tracking, reusable raid setups, and convenient minimap actions.
Native Group Recruitment
Create and manage native PartyBoard listings directly through Let's Party.
Recruitment can be configured for:
- Private groups
- Native instances and events
- Predefined public events
- World Bosses
- Custom public events
- Saved private group templates
Depending on the selected activity, Let's Party supports group capacities of 6, 12, or 36 players. Custom events and private templates can also be saved without an Object ID, although an Object ID is required when creating a native PartyBoard listing.
Available recruitment options include:
- Automatic acceptance of PartyBoard applicants
- Automatic conversion from party to raid
- Automatic Raid Assistant assignment
- Manual raid conversion and Raid Assistant actions
- Capacity-aware invitations
- Configurable loot quality and distribution
- Optional Loot Master assignment
- Automatic recruitment announcements
- Optional full-group announcements
- Confirmation before replacing or changing an active recruitment
A clickable [HERE] application link is included whenever a matching native PartyBoard listing is available. Other players do not need Let's Party installed to use this link.
Keyword AutoInvite
Let's Party monitors selected chat channels and automatically invites players when one of your configured keywords appears.
Each recruitment configuration supports:
- One primary keyword
- Up to five secondary keywords
- Separate switches for primary and secondary keywords
- Reusable keyword presets
- One-time keywords for individual configurations
- Case-insensitive keyword recognition
- Capacity checks and pending-invitation timeouts
Supported monitored channels include:
- Say
- Zone
- Guild
- World
- Whisper
- Joined custom channels
Keyword presets are shared between private and public recruitment configurations and can be added or removed as needed.
Recruitment Announcements
Recruitment calls can be sent manually, automatically after creating a group, or repeatedly at a configurable interval.
Announcements can contain:
- The Let's Party heading
- The selected event or instance
- Local event start time
- Primary recruitment keyword
- A clickable PartyBoard application link
- Current group capacity
- Optional full-group notification
The capacity display can be configured globally:
- Free slots: remaining places out of the maximum
- Total slots: current members out of the maximum
Recruitment announcements remain in English regardless of the selected interface language, allowing players using different client languages to understand the same message.
Public Events and World Bosses
The event overview displays upcoming activities within the next twelve hours.
It combines:
- Recurring public events
- The native World Boss schedule
- Player-created daily or weekly events
- Optional registration times
- Separate registration and start columns
- Today and tomorrow indicators
- Individual recruitment settings for each event
World Boss entries use the native schedule and provide detailed hover information such as duration, location, transport information, attendance requirements, rewards, and prerequisite status. Defeated World Bosses are removed from the overview when reported by the game.
Custom public events can define:
- Display name
- Optional Object ID
- Daily or weekly recurrence
- Weekday
- Registration time
- Start time
- Recruitment lead time
- Group capacity
- Keywords and monitored channels
- PartyBoard, difficulty, loot, and automation settings
Hidden and non-upcoming events remain accessible through the event manager.
Quick Raid
The Quick Raid tab stores multiple named party or raid setups with up to 36 players each.
Saved setups can preserve:
- Party or raid mode
- Raid groups and positions
- Raid Assistant and other raid roles
- Raid target markers
- Instance difficulty
- Awakened+ level
- Loot quality and distribution
- Loot Master
Quick Raid can invite missing members and restore the saved settings, positions, and roles once the group has formed.
Available actions include:
- Save the current group under a custom name
- Invite missing members
- Edit the saved roster and settings
- Reload the selected group
- Disband the current group
- Remove a saved setup without affecting the current group
Potentially disruptive actions are protected by confirmation dialogs.
Whitelist and Blacklist
Let's Party provides shared player lists that apply to private recruitment, public events, World Bosses, and Quick Raid.
- Whitelisted players have their native PartyBoard applications accepted automatically while a Let's Party recruitment is active.
- Blacklisted players are excluded from keyword invitations, have PartyBoard applications declined, and are skipped by Quick Raid.
Each list supports up to 200 players with paginated selection and quick name removal.
Instance Difficulty
Let's Party supports both traditional instance difficulties and the Chronicles of Arcadia Awakened system.
Depending on the selected instance, available modes can include:
- Ask before entering
- Easy
- Normal
- Hard
- Awakened
- Awakened+
Awakened+ provides levels 1 through 7 and displays the corresponding native instance name and monster/reward information.
The selected difficulty is applied when Let's Party creates the group and is not repeatedly forced after later roster or zone changes.
Five Minimap Actions
Let's Party provides five independently configurable native minimap buttons:
- Configuration – opens Let's Party on the Private recruitment tab
- Call – sends the active recruitment announcement
- Reload Group – reloads the selected saved Quick Raid group
- Leave Instance – leaves the current instance
- Reset Instance – resets the current group instance
The Call button’s right-click menu can select a channel for manual announcements and enable, disable, or change the active announcement interval.
Reload Group, Leave Instance, and Reset Instance use confirmation dialogs by default. These confirmations can be disabled individually through the configuration page or the corresponding button’s right-click menu.
The shared right-click navigation provides quick access to:
- Private recruitment
- Public Events
- Quick Raid
- Configuration
- Recruitment start and stop
- Manual recruitment calls
All buttons use the game’s native minimap-button collection and positioning behavior.
Multilingual Interface
The complete Let's Party interface is available in:
- English
- German
- Spanish
- French
- Polish
- Turkish
- Russian
- Arabic
- Simplified Chinese
- Japanese
By default, the addon follows the game client’s language automatically. A different language can be selected from the Configuration tab without reloading the interface.
English is used as the fallback if a translation is ever unavailable.
Interface and Configuration
Let's Party uses a modern dark interface with orange highlights, dedicated tabs, contextual tooltips, and clearly separated recruitment settings.
The main tabs are:
- Private
- Public Events
- Quick Raid
- Configuration
Additional options include:
- Enable or disable all addon tooltips
- Show or hide each minimap button individually
- Configure menu scale and transparency
- Configure safety confirmations
- Show or hide secondary-keyword inputs
- Choose the announcement capacity format
- Manage the whitelist and blacklist
- Reopen the introduction and help window
Most live settings are saved automatically. Private templates and public event configurations provide explicit save actions.
AddonManager Integration
When AddonManager is installed, Let's Party registers itself with:
- Name and version
- Addon icon
- Slash commands
- A Mini-Addons bar entry
- Per-character activation controls
AddonManager is optional. Let's Party does not require ComeOnIn or any other addon.
