Here we go again

Honestly I haven’t done Meso Terminal yet (ok maybe I forgot about the 7.2 trial lol), but whenever I see this topic I just think, ‘isn’t trust/npc runs already easy mode?’.

They're usually well-trained enough that you can easily follow / reflect what they to do to see mechanics resolved. Plus there’s weird stuff like their super condensed movesets having inflated potencies to try and make them a bit closer to what players can do.

I always use NPCs for the first run of a dungeon for that exact reason; if there is something I end up struggling with I can just keep running at it until it’s overcome.

Also as an extra tip, if you’re a Scholar you can just Protraction / Adloquium yourself and you’ll be able to tank most hits (outside of having a bunch of vuln ups etc). Maybe if you’re having too much trouble with a mechanic you could try and ‘find a way around it’ so to speak. Summoner’s Radiant Aegis has saved my life so many times on mechanics I just didn’t get lol. Save me, Carbuncle!
