    Most likely not. I've only ran one as my DRG and they did not LB at all.

    Alisaie WILL use the LB regardless of your class. I've gone in with both melee & magic DPS and she LB's the instant we're in a boss fight.

    I personally have only ever seen Ryne use a LB when I've been playing on my tank. I have seen Y'shatola use the LB when I was on a mage dps, but it was a fair way through the fight... so seemed she waited to see if I'd use it before using it herself.

    So it would seem that they have programmed the Trust's use of LB to be different for each NPC, as well as potentially what role the player is, and finally what their order is in the party selection. At least based on what I've read here on these forums, as well as reddit, it seems this way.

    Every Trust run I have done has been as a DPS, and all 3 of the DPS trusts use the LB. Alisaie is trigger happy and uses her LB in boss fights the moment it is available or as soon as she can if she's in the middle of one of her scripted actions like moving to deal with a stack marker, etc. It's kind of annoying, since I never get to use it myself with her around even if I try. Y'Shtola is very reluctant to use the LB and will take a long time to get around to using it, but I've seen her do it on occasion when I forget to. Ryne uses hers more readily than Y'Shtola, but isn't trigger happy with it like Alisaie.

    Interesting, and good to know. Took Ryne on the one run I did do as a DPS and she must have been feeling lazy that day cause she didn't LB the whole run. Haven't tried again as anything other than PLD since, so my knowledge is limited to tanking only, more or less. ^^;

    Not true with Alisaie and I've run trusts as dancer, rdm and nin, that little hot head will cast as soon as its available. Ryne will too if you even try to save it for a second.

    Edit: didnt realize others had said the same but I think we are all of the Same general consensus that Alisaie needs to calm her happy ass down a bit with the lb rofl

    And to make matters worse is that's the ONLY time she will aoe and it's on a single target boss

    Do any of the other NPCs actually use the LB, at all? I'm in the last stretch of getting all of them to cap and the only times I see the LB used is when I do it myself or when I bring Alisaie and she does it.
    When I ran Holminster's as Red Mage, Lyna used the LB quite often. I was pleasantly surprised. Less so when I play as melee and Alisaie will, 9 times out of 10, steal it from me for an AOE LB. Why Alisaie? Why are you like this?

    Also, I've seen Alisaie drop two or three times while Alphinaud seems to do fine.
