GC Squadron training

If I remember correctly even normal mobs don't follow you onto the lift?

How the hell did that get through QA

They work pretty well in Pharos at least. Miles better than WP ever was for them.

I don't think there's a point to these 50 dungeons other than proof of concept though. I tested on a 70 job but I doubt Pharos outpaces Stone Vigil and suddenly makes this a viable leveling source for mid50s.

For copperbell, if you drop down the mineshaft then run to the rightmost part of the cavern once you land, you can have them teleport you without aggroing mobs. Its still a shitty dungeon though, because the boss is really hard to do unless you're the tank.

i was bumming around with my squadron, and i just realised... would my squad be any more efficient if i ugpraded my classes to jobs? if anyone done any calculations.

[Lucavi]

Not really, as they don't ever upgrade (yet) to Jobs.

oh shit you're right. I got it mixed up with the venture system where you could upgrade retainers to jobs!!


nevermind then lol

Been leveling some lowbie dps jobs with squadrons the last couple of days. They are great on trash but if the boss involves any kind of “move here, don’t stand here” mechanics they are derpy as fuck. Have to spam Engage/Disengage a lot.

Yeah, thats why they have such stupidly high amounts of HP for the level. SE has to allow them to soak most mechanics since they're dumb as bricks.

I figured they were just emulating the typical playerbase in content.

Got em.
