The Trust system will always remain a failure and garbage to me

As long as the NPCs continue to only use single target attacks. Kudos to anyone who leveled every NPC to 80, because I do no have the patience to sit there and watch Y'shtola and Ryne or Alisae go "Oh there's 8 mobs? We're gonna use single target spells and kill them one by one and take two hours to do so!"

And I know they're not meant to replace actual dungeons, but I need every title in the game yet I also do not have enough alcohol to get me through that many trusts.

Their dps adjusts to your own, and the dungeon runs always take approximately the same time, around 20-25 minutes. Which is what you're gonna usually get running the dungeons with actual people doing supposedly good aoe dps. But without queue times, or terribad players, or drama, or loot grief. The Trust system was possibly the best thing they added to the game in ShB, and I haven't done a dungeon with a group since the twinning. Some people just have to do content with other people for some reason and that's fine but the system itself is superb for what it does, and I rarely say that about anything new in this game.

Lol what? No they don't. Join a regular group and pull three packs of mobs and then do a Trust and pull the same three packs of mobs, see which one takes longer. The answer will always be the Trust group.

Then do group speed runs if that makes you happy. Why are you here complaining that a feature in this game isn't to your liking? No one is forcing you to do it. Just keep doing group content and you'll be happy.

I think the system is fantastic for running the dungeon the first time and I have some at maybe 76 or something. The AI is surprisingly good and they do decent damage on bosses.

But yes, lack of aoe really hurts it unless you really don’t want to play with others.

They wouldn’t even need to pull to the wall, just do aoes on 3 mobs or more and it would greatly improve them.

Because it's a feature that's decent but could be better. Sorry other people don't like things that you do.

I mean....it's not a feature for you, that's all....
I don't see how that is a failure or garbage just because it takes 10-ish minutes longer than running a dungeon with actual people.
No queue time, no bad players standing in all AoEs, guaranteed loots, a few fun NPC interactions. Worth the 10minutes for me.
Also, honestly, it is far far far away from being the most time consuming and boring achievement to unlock.

As a lot of other things

Ocean Fishing
Glamour
Retainers ....

Just enjoy the part of the game you like and ignore the other ones, specially Trusts, they are NPC, i promise they won't get mad at you

[Adeacia]

I use the Trust system to level up my jobs that I don't know how to play nor do I care to learn. I keep myself away from other players so I don't cause problems. NPC's aren't going to complain about my crap rotation after all.

In that regard I find Trusts quite useful.

Is there a title you get for leveling trusts?
