			Joining the queue as an ''Open Group'' grants an extra [[Astral Merit Salvage\|Astral Merit]] for Incarnate Trials and the [[Warmth of Prometheus]] buff power to all league members. Open Groups allow other players or teams that are looking for group to join that team or league. Note that it is fairly common for team sorting, and even team/league leader, to be rearranged randomly when joining as an Open Group, with players who load into the instance faster having a tendency to move up in team lists.

			Additionally, note there is no extra reward for joining any non-Incarnate activity as an Open Group.

			Joining the queue as a ''Closed Group'' means only the members already in the team or league are allowed on that particular activity. Closed Group must be selected every time a group wishes to join the queue (and remain closed). Teams and leaders will not shift in a Closed Group and there is no reward for closing a league.
