I too, echo the sentiments of many on this post regarding squadrons. I wish SE would update them & increase their rank so we can upgrade them to level 70.

Don't get me wrong, I do like the Trust's AI & learning mechanics but I hate the fact that it seems like it takes forever to clear mobs & dungeons. They definitely don't do AOEs, which I think is dumb but that just my opinion. Even though I am not skilled in every job, it is great to use Trust from 71 - 80 to learn 71 - 80 job skills.

I enjoy Squadrons more. When you have an Arcanist is your party, the squadrons can mow down mobs with ease. Even though their AI is not too bright, I still love commanding them. Plus they are great to level up jobs to 60. This is great solo content, especially if you want to do some older dungeons on your own without a human party.

Even though the squadrons cannot be used in every level 60 & 70 dungeons, but there many they can do. SE should like at the ones that are not mechanic heavy & allow the squadrons to be used in those dungeons, they are OP anyway.

Also, you can obtain squadron buffs that are very useful when travelling to different worlds because yours FC buffs are disabled; use buffs to level jobs, cutting the cost in aetheryte travel, increase food time, etc. I have a stockpile of squadron buff for Reaper & Sage.

In conclusion, I always felt that SE should go back & revisit old content like the squadrons. I'm not against other content that are being updating content like mahjong, gold saucer, or whatever that musical instrumental content is BUT I don't play those contents. I always felt that squadrons would have been great to use in POTD. When Blu Mage came out & we were told that it was solo content, I felt SE missed that opportunity to use BLU in the squadron dungeons.
