    TRUST system for all (4 person)dungeons.

    It would be great to release a patch that would allow the trust system be used for all (4 person) dungeons, not just for Shadowbringers. I was surprised that Trust works really well. There is plenty of positives with this. First being that it would cut down the wait time to enter dungeons. It would be great for people who want to try out being a healer or a tank with out the added pressure of being in a dungeon with random people. That being said it is also great for people who want to get back into those classes and who are a bit rusty to get to practice before they go into dungeons with 3 other people. It's a win-win! It can be made to work story wise, there are several NPCs that you meet before the scion NPCs, The story would not change at all. Just have NPCs from the Smith(beginners hall)guild. Please consider this.

    Its highly unlikely we get this, because TRUST npc's are programmed for each Dungeon separately its not an AI at all. This means there is nothing they can copy as of right now but instead they would go into every single file for every single dungeon ...

    Sastasha Boss #1 ... small aoe ... run to pos XYZ.
    Sastasha Boss #2 & 3 ... remove Blind from player if tank, remove blind from trust if tank.
    Sastasha Boss #4 ... stand on pos XYZ to block a spawning add

    And not only is this true for Bosses, nope every single mob. They would need to prio the clams over the lights, step out of small aoes and so on. Players would likely also want the Trust npcs to interact and talk which would would be even more work.

    We do have a system that pretends it can do this. Squadron, that's a very basic AI that can be copied to everything, it just ignores every mechanic and puts all the pressure on you.

    Seeing how SE is already scratching things left and right to keep on track with their Expansion deadline, I don't think they will have a chance to do this for eh ... 70 (?) Dungeons.
