    I totally agree. Keep the Trust for leveling 71 & up, just allow them to do AoEs. All members of my squadron are capped. Give them more content, why put them to the waste side. Squadron is solo content that I enjoy & play alot. Also if SE allow BLU, which was suppose to be solo content also, to be used with the squadrons, that would be great.

    I am a solo player and hate dungeons with randoms. I would have never leveled the jobs up if it was all with randoms.
    I havent played HoH in a long time. Being using MSQ roulette to level my alts. I dont mind randoms players sometime but like you, I am basically a solo player.

    I think of SE upgrade the squadrons with the AI like the Trusts have, I believe they could do alot of the dungeons. I also use squadrons & trusts has definitely help me learn mechanics for certain jobs.

    Squadron is absolutely wonderful for collecting gear for GC or desynthing purposes. Please update this. Also please update the Guildhest with Savage tier mechanics. Or mock battles, using the new Trust System.

    For me, its not about what you said. I liked to go into squadrons with me on DPS to avoid those hellish queue times. If there's higher level dungeons, I could level my DPS at a reasonable rate without having to wait 30 minutes or so per queue pop. I know I could just ask people to queue up w/ me, but what if nobody is around or they are pre-occupied. Squadrons can fix that.

    I'd say we are meant to be avoiding queues, since we've got plenty of options to at every level range EXCEPT 61-70 inexplicably. Leveling DPS especially is a nightmare if you have to rely on queues.

    Also, I like leveling while playing at work. If you want to force me to queue up to do that reliably, then enjoy me randomly going AFK and making you all sit around, or wiping the group, when my job has to take priority.

    Finally, trusts and squadrons teach you the nuances of playing fine. If anything they teach you better, because you end up being solely responsible for executing the mechanics, and are generally the only character the mechanics target. And, if you screw up you're starting over; the group isn't finishing the fight without you.

    I believer they are done with squadrons.. it was probably a prototype for trusts anyway.

    I'm a healer main trying to level dps classes now for the mount and two words: DPS queues.

    Plus if they're playing something like a healer or a tank and aren't usually that class they may not have everything down about doing that class in a dungeon. I personally don't want to inflict myself as a tank on poor groups unless I have the mechs down.

    I'd love to be levelling my squadron again. Those bed rats are getting restless. Or put trust in if it's preferred. Whatever works. Though my vote would be to re-do squadrons as trusts instead, for use in as many dungeons as possible. No need for NPCs or your "adventurer friends" or wonky story rewriting to shoehorn a beloved NPC in (though it is only right and proper Aymeric should come with me everywhere, I accept it would upset someone somewhere and probably shouldn't happen), you have 8 rabid fans trying to out-dps each other to prove worthiness. If it's an issue where there aren't enough players to run with other players (find that one hard to believe, really I do), simply earmark a dungeon as needing to be run with real people the first time its done, and either way the roulette stays as it is with shiny rewards, trust/squadron runs aren't included in the overall dungeon count a person has, and then whatever else it may need to remain balanced.

    I am all for 61+ squadrons. I have my team of seasoned badasses, but now they are mainly sent on some random assignments (when i actually remember to send them at least) and that's it. Or when i am leveling a new dps class.

    Sometimes rumors are just... rumors.
