Command Missions (Squadron)

A little bit annoyed.

Trying to complete Brayflox (Hard) and am struggling. All is good until the last boss. When he drops the bombs that you need to hit away from you, the NPC's are not helping. In fact, they do the opposite, they just hit a bomb each wherever they want (direction be damned it seems).
This makes it VERY difficult to clear, as I am the only player attempting to clear space, which I can't do in time (especially as BLM). I keep wiping. Horrible experience, and wasted a lot of time as I had to end up abandoning.

Will complete a different dungeon to get the promotion in the GC, and then will likely never come back to this content again.

I had a difficult time completing this too. The squad will only follow your commands but will also play to their roles. I had difficulty with the tank engaging the boss during the bomb parts. As I wanted to get the GC promotion I tried different tactics.

What worked for me is that I changed my job (I am a DRG main) to tank/PLD. When I engage the final boss, the squad would follow me if I move away from anything I don't want them to be and command to stop attacking the boss. No bomb dramas.

There might be other tactics out there too. Good luck.
