    Feel free not to use it. I loved not having to wait in a queue and not to feel the anxiety of having to play correctly in a group.

    I actually groaned when the wol pulled azems crystal for the last trial.

    Compared to the past when we've had three or seven adventurers pop up randomly when we're in the middle of nowhere to help us defeat Ifrit, Titan, Garuda, Leviathan, Ramuh, Shiva, Ravana, Bismarck, Thordan, Susano, Sri Lakshmi, fused Shinryu / Zenos, Titania & Vauthry?

    This. Honestly, it affected my MSQ experience when I was in such a momentum when I realise I had to wait 22mins for the level 100 trial. I got it fixed by asking help from people to queue me. But still. Wouldve been a more fluid experience if I didn't have to wait.
    A suggestion would be only allowing it for the MSQ purpose. Any other rerun would require real people.

    The problem the OP is expressing is not you shouldn’t be able to do trusts because he doesn’t like them so you shouldn’t either

    His problem is DT’s story was really really bad at actually giving organic reasons as to why the people you do duty support with are actually present in the story when you need them

    Using the 99 trial as an example there is no justification for why graha, y’shtola and Estinian should have made it to the top of the everkeep before the fight, similarly their justification to take graha to the unlost world is weak and is just a way to bring a healer NPC to Alexandria

    Trusts are good but they aren’t worth literally bending the story in stupid ways just to have the right people in the right place, especially when they refuse to use NPC’s who are already there and have justification to be there (why was oblivion not used in origenics for example)

    I don’t want the trust system to go because that first story run with trusts is good gameplay, but I’ll take losing trusts over DT’s terrible justification to always have the correct scions in the correct places for trusts

    As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.

    I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess

    And summoned seven random strangers into VR. You'd think they'd stop taking our calls after awhile.

    The OP doesn’t want the trust system removed because he is a meanie who wants you to suffer he wants the trust system removed or expanded in a way you he makes it so the story isn’t constantly tying itself in knots trying to justify why the correct people for each trial are always present

    For example any trust member who was in zarool ja’s trial but wasn’t in origenics has no justification to be there other than for duty support l, same as the flimsy reason for why graha went to living memory, it was really just for the healer spot in Alexandria

    If they can’t properly justify why people are in the spots they are for duty support then duty support isn’t worth the butchers knife the story is taking
    They had to use just as many contrivances for your friends who love you more than the air they breathe to all dip out at the start of every big fight. "Oh noes, a strong gust of wind blew them all away."
