Adding them at all is a huge dub.
If you add them to heroic dungeons as well, that’d let us work on the Great Vault without having to worry about being left in the dust by gotta-go-fast.

I’m all for it. I like using the party support in ffxiv to help level and learn my class.

How do heroics affect the Vault?
You can fill the dungeon row with heroics now.
and Timewalking

Might as well just auto fill the vault for them if AI will just carry folks through.

Yup. It’s what people want, All the rewards with no effort.

Bro if Heroic Dungeons already fill the dungeon vault section, there is fundamentally zero difference between letting people clear it with the AI companions and set their own pace, or to queue it the usual way
You can’t be seriously implying that Heroic Dungeons involve any kind of actual skill regardless esp when most reasonably geared tanks can already solo the entire thing lmfao

Eh, its completely fine. The Trust system is great in FF14 especially if you like the story and want to explore anything in the dungeon without being rushed, there is also unique dialogue.
Also great for when you need to do a dungeon that nobody is really queing for or there is any other issue.
AI is slower though and they do less dps in ff14.

I know this unpopular but Ppl should just learn to group.
Its an mmo. Learning to deal with ppl is helpful in life. Is it always fun? No. But oh well.
Single player games —> that way
But ah well if its what the masses want i guess it is what it is.

Yea, I would imagine they would be tuned at the appropriate level. Since most people outgear these instances quickly, it would likely be quite a bit slower to clear with AI companions.
I imagine it would be tuned so that you’d fail if you under perform and let the AI do all the work. It won’t be able to complete a dungeon with you just watching.
At this point they should get just get rid of Heroic difficulty. It used to mean something, now it doesn’t. Scrap it.
People in MMOs share zero in common with people in real life.

on one hand I really hate that they have just completely given up on balancing dungeons.
on the other hand it is an MMO and if you wanted to play by yourself there are many other games.
But for real though Blizzard please balance your dungeons at least try a little bit. literally any tank can run through a dungeon and solo everything and leave the DPS and the healers to die.

Let’s add AI followers to m+.
Finally bad players can do +20’s without paying for them.
Just go afk and let the AI team carry you.
I love the idea personally, dps instant queues with my dps friends will taste so good.

New Players don’t know whats going on and with the go go go mentality behind dungeons no new player wants to even try to understand them. Then unless your being spoon fed the encounter info by youtube guides, they can be even more overwhelming to learn. Mix that in with not knowing the layout or what the true objectives are and players get more confused.
Let them onboard at their on pace. It’s not like RDF actually does anything social and people get carried hard through that on normal and heroic anyways.
Overall a great change. I play Warcraft to play this game, single player games aren’t WoW.

I stand by what I say, you people want all the rewards without putting a bit of effort. Hell, let go all the way and Autofill the vault with M+ 20 loot. There has to be a cutoff. Keep the AI to normal so people can learn the dungeons.

Eh, they can easily program like FF does and its a great way to even do moderately difficult content.
If you die, the Al die so it is not a free ride and the Al is programmed to fail certain mechanics sometimes or always or depending…on several circumstances.
It’s pretty much perfect for people who want to do chill content without all the possible drama and they can even make lore people happy by adding cool dialogue to ur chosen characters.
