That does it! Devs! Incorporate Squadrons into the Trust System! >:0

[Nadda]

They could be worked into the Duty Support for ARR, HW and SB... As you do have occasions where you have random literally nameless NPCs doing the dungeons... Just have it be unlockable after joining one of the GCs, give people a proper light party to start with so instead of the filler NPCs you could bring Squadron members in.

This would be my central premise pretty much. I just want to be able to have Squadrons have relevance and just change the system slightly so if you do have Squadrons unlocked you can have your own special platoon of Trust Members you leveled yourself instead of a generic lot.

[Hasrat]

They'd have to go back and change AI to make it on par with Trust systems, which would just sorta ruin the fun imo. Squadrons are great murder machines, don't take that away from them.

[Sacae]

Yeah, the squadrons are much dumber than the Trusts, which they compensate for by being completely busted strength-wise. Putting them into trusts would be a downgrade for them.

[MsQi]

The squadron system is so much better than Trusts, and it had so much potential. They should have expanded/improved Squadrons instead of adding trusts and duty support.

[Blindheart]

Love that my squadron tank still uses the Paladin flash skill. I miss it so much.

[keichirou]

No more Mr. Nice Lala!

If Yer gonna continue to add in optional dungeons you should incorporate people's squadrons as Trusts!

Heccin do it!

If you don't do it I'll be forced to use my psychic powers >:0

NAILS ON A CHALKBOARD!

SPLINTER IN YOUR FINGERNAILS!

A SPIDER CRAWLING UP YOUR NECK!

STEPPING ON A LEGO!

This is but a taste of my power!

Add Squadrons into Trusts - Please and Thank you!

you forgot, the ability to make both sides of your pillow warm D:

I fully agree, I really question not just lowering the company level requirement on Squadrons to the first one, they already cover a lot of older optional dungeons and in my own opinion it seems like a waste of development time to make Duty Support when the Squadron system already covers something. I understand squadrons take a bit more effort and are a bit more janky to operate but still seems like an odd choice.

Agreed. Squadrons are more fun than Trust/Duty Support because they’re customizable for job, party composition, glamours and help you actually feel like a high ranking GC officer instead of just having a title that lets you buy gacha boxes. They could have created training items that cost GC seals to improve and tailor your squadron, like the chocobo raising system.

I also get that doing MSQ dungeons with story NPCs is cool. So I wish they would have just kept Duty Support to MSQ dungeons and put that dev time into enabling squadrons for optional dungeons so we can play with both systems.

[Nadda]

I am once again bringing this back to the forefront. I want my Squadron to be in my Trust!

Do it now darn it! BUMP BUMP BUMP!

[Moonlite]

Squadrons should be spun out. They should be little instances about the size of guildhests. You can pop in with squadron, do a squadron specific run. Giving maybe a unique squadron reward, along the lines of random loot bags you get in other content.
