    Played all except Toto rak. Wanderer's Palace was awful. I oneshot the thing and still think it was a mess.
    Stone Vigil made up for it, seemed a very nice alternative for PotD levelling.
    I hope this can be salvaged, giving decent incentives to play these while also allowing stuff like a better npc ilevel for tomestone dungeons, the obvious job crystals, etc.

    Very pleased with Command Missions so far. They just need to add more dungeons. 5 each patch would be great.

    When you play as a DPS, allow the tank to draw enmity with Overpower or Flash before you do damage to enemies.

    They need to add an order action that tells the tank to focus on the same target unless told otherwise. Good example would be the final boss in Wanderer's Palace. Tank should only focus on the boss while the DPS can deal with the adds.

    Micromanaging the squadron to hit your target is a major battle. They never hit my first target, they always hit one of the others first. If it's a boss they are fixated on hitting it unless I keep mashing other buttons to tell them to back off or go hit the adds.

    Best solution I've found so far is to go tank myself, pull a target other than the one I want them to hit, switch to one they've started hitting and do a single rotation on it, then target another target. Sometimes they'll be smart and fight the one I'm fighting after their target is dead, if they don't then I tab to whatever random target they've picked and repeat. Only problem with tanking is not being able to interact with anything during boss fights like the Bertha during the Koshchei fight in Stone Vigil.

    Ran Toto as dps.I've noticed that the tank AI is strange.Dont hit any mobs before tank agro them though as you could be waiting up to 10 seconds for them to agro the mob off you.
    AI healer is a beast though.

    I tried to do Copperbell Mines (Hard) with my squadron today, but they wouldn't take the first elevator down. This forced me to try to solo the enemies there and (of course) failing. With no way to get the squadron to actually get on the elevator (they kept going around it instead), I had no choice but to quit the dungeon.

    Squadron AI in general needs scripting on a per-boss basis.

    Tried Pharos Sirius healing my squad. Not bad until the third boss, when things fell apart. It was hard enough trying to keep them focused on the boss while killing the correct egg. The the boss kept targeting me for his body slam, which is pretty much an insta-kil with the stun preventing a heal. After 3 wipes I had enough and left the dungeon.

    It may be better as a tank, which I don’t play, or maybe as dps, but i’m Not eager to take the squad back there...

    Just did Copperbell Mines (HM) for the first time today with my squadron. NPCs would not board the elevator with me, but when I engaged the enemies solo my tank NPC magically warped/appeared in front of the mobs and tanked them for me (huh?????). After the tank and I kill all the mobs, the 2 dps magically appear next to me. -_-

    This is really wonky and needs to be looked into.

    Would be better to play it just how normal parties play it now; ignore all the eggs.

    Just tried Copperbell Hard with my squadron. Entered as tank, and that was probably the worst thing I could have done. They didn't want to go down the elevator at first, but once I got them down there, it was a struggle all the way. Got through the first boss without serious trouble, though the AI's positioning is terrible. Had to abandon at the 2nd boss because the CNJ healer couldn't keep anybody alive. I'm trying frantically to click the blasting device with no luck because I'm being interrupted constantly. Wiped twice and gave up at that point since they're completely incapable of doing any mechanics whatsoever. I probably should have known better considering they can't even click a freaking cannon in Stone Vigil. Its probably doable as a DPS or healer, but not as tank.
