Trust System Leveling

[Sylve]

I realise this might be a little silly and not really worth talking about for most people, but I really dislike the choice made with having trust party members level back down to 71 after the main story and requiring you to manually level them up through repeated dungeon runs.

On paper it doesn't sound like that bad of an idea, you can level up your trusts alongside one or two alternate jobs, but sadly the experience requirements for them are straight up ridiculous - at level 71, each trust member requires 6 runs of the level appropriate dungeon in order to level up, that's at least 12 runs of the same dungeon before you can move on to the next one... and that's before you factor in the part where only the 3 out of 6 trusts you bring with you will actually gain experience, doubling that number to at least 24 if you want to level all of them.

Needless to say doing over 24 runs for each of the five story leveling dungeons would drive anyone mad, especially when they very rarely take less than 30 minutes to complete due to the trusts' reduced damage output.

The experience gain is so bad you'll end up vastly overleveling them on an alternate job even if you do nothing but trust runs on it...

This seems like far too much trouble for too little reward, it should either be made way more lenient or just be removed altogether.

Forgetting that it can take 4 to 5 runs runs per level yourself if you don't have rested, FC buffs, food buffs etc.
Level a DPS, Take 1 Trust of each role. Then level a Tank, taking the remaining 2 DPS and the other Healer and boom, 2 jobs to 80, all Trusts to 80. Problem solved.

If you find yourself reaching the next dungeon before your Trusts, you're still gaining EXP in the lower dungeon, just a tad slower. Then they catch up and you move on.


Edit: Oh, lets also remember that it takes 10~ runs or so of any given dungeon to ensure a full glamour set. So theres that too.
