Trust RDMs

[Vae]

Why is it that Arciela I/II flat out refuses to refresh mage trusts?

Koru has no problem refreshing other trust but you won't allow me to have him.

Feels like an incredible punishment for not paying for the sub the month koru was accessible.

I'd use moogle, but, you know, that punishment for not playing during the month his event was active...

Trust should be available to everyone, not used as a punishment to make sure we keep paying you.

As someone who also lacks many event trusts--amchu, ulle, koru, corsair, both moogles--I don't mind that I don't have them. I'll get them in time.

That said, Arc is lackluster about refreshing.

Biggest chang I'd make to trusts is for them to finish casting a spell if enemy dies while casting.

Arciela II refreshes me as BLM/SCH

Koru-moru has been available multiple times, not just one month. You just need to check the Grounds Tomes when you are in game, if you missed a POL announcement you can just check the GOV book in-game every month or so and eventually he will pop up.

He is a great trust and well worth waiting for, so don't give up hope!

Um where are you getting your info from.

I am only seeing koru moru available during 9/22/2014 alter ego extravaganza.

I got Koru on four characters, at different times. Two of those were from books, months apart. The other two were from pells or w/e event it was. I know for a fact that I only got Koru-Moru on my main character when the first GOV book thing was on, but today I have Koru on multiple chars. So something happened, but I don't take notes about trust obtainment dates, sorry.

In Lore terms, Koru-Moru /chatmode says he is very happy the party is over because he's bored, and also mentions he wants to be making lunch for Mojiji instead. This means he is an elusive fellow who doesn't really want to be in the Trust initiative, lol. So maybe this is reflected in his elusive nature in obtaining his trust!

The question is, where are you getting your info from?

Not trying to be rude or facetious, but both all wikis are way out of date on this sort of information. It may appear that it was only obtainable once, but that's probably due to noone updating wiki. (No blame, I haven't edited a wiki page in years either).

TBH, I'm fine with them releasing trusts as they are. It's a quality of life feature, so it makes sense to use it to incentivise continuous play.

Where I do have a problem, is that I'm not sure how they calculate which trusts they are handing out. I'm assuming they have somekind of grid with values for attack/defense/whatever state makes sense for the trust's job/ai; but I'm really not sure.

Alot of trusts are dumb as rocks (which I'm hoping the ai adjustments they announced in the patchnotes help). Out of all the trusts I got last month (granted I didn't get alot of the allied notes ones since I'm doing storylines in order); Luzaf is pretty much the only one I'm finding myself using regularly. I did use Najelith for a while when I was killing pink birds; but she uses friggin' cyclone like an idiot. I'm not sure whose bright idea it was to give a RNG npc cyclone as a possible attack when most of the mobs that are weak to piercing a birds that are strong to wind... Similarly, the Chebukki twin that they just gave us uses AOE primarily. Which would be fine if the ratio of magic users to melee weren't 1:20. :S

Similar issue include all the spear wielders being pld/war who can't keep hate (which-sidenote- there are wayyyyyyy too many idiotic WAR trusts who think they are tanks and basically just make things complicated by provoking at stupid times).

I'm sure the idea is that people need to think carefully about which trusts to use in which situation; but there needs to be a major review of the AI to see whether the distribution makes sense. At the moment, there are too many unusable trusts.

TL;DR: If they are using a ratings system, they seriously need to take AI into consideration. The rift between backbenchers and MVPs is too great. It really feels like you are significantly weaker when you don't have certain trusts.

I'd like SE to add Brygid as well aside the fact of relying on a Red Mog Pelt. That trust was never been available more than once (if I remember correctly).

Also either let us have Sylvie or Yoran-Oran outside Unity System, Silvye gives awesome Geo magic, and Yoran-Oran does Dagan and uses Afflatus Solace!!... and at distance!!!... Since he seems to have a auto-regain because he doesn't have to melee like Kupipi, making him and Sylvie a must have. But Unity system kinda of punishes us.

Hope they can change that.

They won't make Sylvie available outside of UC because it would take away one of the advantages of joining her unity. You have to make a choice about which UC leader you want.
