There does seem to be something amiss this time around, I agree.

I was running the first dungeon to level my Trust members, and it happened I had a party with myself as the tank, and then Krile and Alisaie on DPS, with G'raha healing. Not ideal, but those were the ones that needed leveling.

On the second boss, all the npcs consistently would stand in the AoEs and lose half their health. On one occasion, they happily stood in a double AoE and all three died. I was able to solo the boss down from over 50% (I think I have seen a thread on this forum asking tanks not to do this, but with a Trust party it is a victimless crime ) and then.. well, then I was kind of stuck with all three of them on the floor -- this was a situation I had not encountered before. I went through two more packs of dungeon trash solo, with the npcs comically teleporting into the newly loaded room only to drop to the floor dead, then ended up letting the third pack kill me because a wipe seemed the only thing I could do to make the Trust npcs get back on their feet?

It left a bit of a weird taste, like, I did all the mechanics right and I still had to take a wipe because this combination of Trust members has trouble keeping itself alive with this particular boss?
