    By wanting to devote the bulk of their resources to new content, that means they're reluctant to do anything to old content. I mean, that's just what words mean, man.

    They are adding the new 80 dungoen in 5.1. I wouldn't be surprised to see them add some more. Now whether or not it's the two 80's that are missing at the moment of perhaps some others we'll have to wait and see. I suspect trusts will be something they will in fact devote resources too. We should know more with the next live letter or certainly with the 5.1 patch notes.

    They should have some pretty good numbers on how trusts were utilized at this point. Personally I've been using them quite a bit with taking my alts through story (did all the leveling dungeons with them) and leveling trust members on my main with 3 at 80 and 3 at 76 atm.

    Or its not that much work going forward with new dungeons because new content is designed with trusts in mind. I am not disagreeing. Just saying that we should never see a non trust dungeon going forward just might not happen going backwards.

    Will we never get out of this excuse. Not blaming you. How much money and how many years does it take to hire/train new staff? Wouldn't side content like this be good for new staff, players don't expect it anytime soon. After they got one done they could be added when ready. The only drawback is if they add new trusts that have to be worked into every dungeon. That could be a nightmare its not like 11s trusts or even GC squads have to do any mechanics.

    Pretty hard if the apparent fight to even get server upgrades a few years ago was anything to go by. After a certain point I think it's less what the FF14 team wants and more what SE at large will allow them to do, since we already know profits from FF14 are also funneled into other projects.

    If thye can I'd love for trusts to eventually make it down to lower content. I'll never use them but hey, can't hurt.
