    Expand trusts to cover previous content!

    Hello, just hit Shadowbringers yesterday and did my first trust.

    Oh, my, god. This is the best feature I've ever tried in a game. I get to run content with npc's that I have more connection with that xArthas lalaX from whatever server that I will never see again and I can run the content at my own pace. Actually check treasure chests without feeling rushed and learn the mechanics at my own pace. It's amazing.

    I know squads are a thing but trusts seem so much better. Please retroactively apply this feature to previous content. Thank you.

    I’m all for this. Let players learn new classes at their own pace in a comfortable setting.
    I’d just like for a first time completion in trusts not unlock it in a persons roulette. Clear it with a group before being tossed in roulette with others

    Not sure I understand. It automatically unlocks to queue with players if you choose to do so, why would this be any different?

    Ok I’ll elaborate. I don’t see trusts as inherently bad. There are many benefits to trusts. Learning mechanics. Testing out classes at higher levels, figuring out the rotations. Avoiding the general community if thats your thing.
    Trust play is vastly different than community play. Bigger pulls. Need for mitigation due to bigger pulls. Higher healing. Aoe rotations are a must. Ive seen arguments on these forums stating trusts, with the slow pace and single pulls is how the devs intended for people to play (lol).
    So all I’m suggesting, is yes, while it would unlock a direct queue for said duty. I’d like to see it not unlock it to pop up in roulettes, where you get bonus’ for playing the content until a person has played through it with actual players. Cleared the duty with the community and not npcs.
    Not saying its a must to expand trusts. Just my own personal preference

    Why? At least someone who clears it with Trusts has seen the mechanics and has had to do them since if you alone die you fail. Someone who does it with other players from the get-go doesn't have that experience.

    As to the OP, yeah Trusts are great. I love the interaction between the characters. I love laughing at Alisaie using LB the second it's up. I've gotten in the habit of running dungeons with Trusts first for that nice, chill experience before I go throw myself into healing Duty Finder.

    rather on the fence on this one.

    sure, being able to essentially "solo" everything with a trust would be nice I guess, at that point makes it a single player game. I mean, I do get it, people are unpredictable and have varying skill levels, and will never complain if you want to either avoid tanking or healing.

    but what does it actually teach you about playing well (or better) with others?

    I wouldn't claim that it does. But my level of fun increased exponentially because I felt like I wasn't being rushed. Didn't have to use sprint a single time.

    There are several threads talking about this already. Trusts are pretty good for afking though (apparently), I'll give them that.

    Sorry, I didn't see anything about trusts on the first or second page.

    To me, it's a very similar conversation as several threads, with a trust on top.
