    That's by design or people would never queue for dungeons through DF.

    I mean, I guess you have a point. I just wish there was a viable alternative to sitting in queues for 20-30 as a solo DPS.

    Well if you're doing trusts as DPS... aren't you bringing a fair chunk of aoe to the table? I mean, a group is comprised of a Tank, Healer, and two dps. And while tanks and healers do contribute aoe dps in normal dungeons, the bulk of the damage comes from the two DPS jobs (or at least it should -_-). I get that you being the only aoe dps in a trust group isn't going to make it as fast as a standard player group, but I've found that when doing trusts I generally take about 25-30 minutes to clear, vs. the 15-20 minutes a standard player dungeon run takes. That 10 minutes extra a trust dungeon takes is still less time than sitting in queue as DPS.

    The real slow down is when you do trusts as a tank or healer... then there's very little aoe dps comparatively speaking >_<

    How many men am I involved with? Well that depends... do you mean men as in males? Or just midlanders?

    Palace of the Dead and Heaven on High, though seems we have to wait for the X.3 patches for the "Deep Dungeon" content.

    Y'know... maybe they should make future story and side dungeons populate like "Deep Dungeons"... It would take a lot of rework to tweak older dungeons, but it would all but eliminate the need for the 2 dps, tank, healer matchmake in duty finder.

    Like they never queue for 20-60 dungeon finder when Offensive 5 squadrons exist?

    At the very least let us unlock traits when we get all Trust members to 80, that unlock aoe abilities and similar traits to squadron mastery, so we can augment them if we're willing to work for it.
