Solo through Minions Dungeons/Mounts

[MistyMew]

Don't know if they will ever do this op tbh.

I have seen some posts here, that one day npcs will be avail for hire to help get through dungeons but I have NO idea if that's correct or official so take that statement with a grain of saltl!!!

I hope one day they will allow solo entry with no sync in old content like wow and many other mmos have done, if it happens it happens, if not then that's ok too for me

I think she's well aware of what an mmo stands for, no need to link a definition, its simply a suggestion to SE

It's not official yet, but in one of the letters from the producers, it HAS been brought up.

Here it is specifically from that newsletter:

"Q: In a previous magazine interview you commented that you want to have dungeons that can be soloed. Will this ever make its way into the game?

A: While we do not have any plans to add a new dungeon meant for soloing, we’re currently looking into making it so the current dungeons geared towards light parties can be undertaken solo.

Additionally, while this is still in the planning phase, we’ve been tossing around an idea to make it so you can form your own military unit under your Grand Company, recruit subordinate NPCs, and then take them to dungeons to train them."

I've seen other MMO's do this too. The one that quickly springs to my head is Guild Wars. For as long as I've played that game, players have ALWAYS been able to recruit NPC allies to bring into dungeons with them. It got expanded to include customizable NPC heroes as well that you could arrange the skill bars of and level up, and even order them to use specific skills, like how SMN's in this game order their pets to do specific things. It then got later expanded that you could recruit additional characters on your own account as NPC allies.

So... in answer to the question of both the OP and others here, it's not official yet. The developers are currently only talking about it, with no plans to put it in yet as far as I'm aware. Doesn't change the fact that they did bring it up, and mentioned that they are tossing around the idea of the possibility of NPC allies in the future for dungeon raids.
