I do wish they'd just do away with the strict requirements on entering instances. Why do I need a whole group to enter anything? Why can't I just enter with what I have to practice or even clear? Why do I need to find a random person who'll probably eat dirt all fight then walk away with the loot?

Not sure how I feel about having a NPC squad to "solo" dungeons. Would they be stupid? Why would you ever do dungeons with other people again when you can just have all the EXP/loot with none of the drawbacks of actually being solo? More so you'd have incentive to actively level them, seems like an absurd concept in a MMO. Maybe add it when it's actually required, but low level dungeons aren't so abandoned that I think Alter Egos are required just yet...
