Why are NPC parties so bad?

Theyre not designed for massive pulls or wall to wall. They're not necessarily bad, just not as efficient.
I do all of my new dungeons with Trust and get no issues. You just really have to choose between speed/efficiency (real players) and immersion (NPCs). I tend to enjoy the extra dialogue for my first time runs.

Massive pulls? I don't think you can pull more than 2 groups of mobs at a time for this dungeon, since you'll have to defeat mobs to open doors.

This is normal but isn't constant. There are a few large pulls scattered around out there. There's a couple of pulls in amdapor keep where you can pull 4 or 5 groups at a time for example. The very opening of brayflox hm is like 20 mobs if you're brave enough.
