Trusts are actually very useful for leveling those classes you aren't very good at or think you aren't very good at. I leveled the melee classes with trusts, and now working on tanks. They aren't that much slower than a group of 4 players. I can do a dungeon in 30 minutes with trusts. They take about 20 minutes with a group of players who are decent (and we all know you don't always get a decent group) As a dps, the queue time can be anywhere from 10 minutes to the next forever, so really, trusts can be a huge time saver. I am slowly getting used to tanking but still more comfortable with the trusts than a real group of strangers. Trusts have their place.

And as others have said, the dialogue the Scions have is really amusing.
