If, in the future, they get to take gear similar to automaton attachments then trusts could become wildly useful, assuming we can take the items back.

Can I lend qultada all my +roll gear?
Can I lend Sylvie my Idris?
Can I dump all my bard REMA onto Joachim?
My Epeo to Amchu?

I seriously doubt they'd take it that far, but if they did then, yes, our trusts would become truly formidable.

Would also massively solve inventory issues for a pack rat like me.

There was a system before this, where based on the number of people in the group the trust was boosted.

If you had 5/6, you no longer get that boost. So the question is, what have you lost compared to that and how much do you have to boost to get them back to that level.

They gained a paltry 1 level of stats per boost. So the new system is significantly better.

You'll have to go back in time for "proof" when someone posted HP solo, with 2, with 3, with 4 etc

All that matters is it was not even close to 250, and the stats scale the same.

so if we compare the known boost from things like pet levels being +5 to a stat per level, then with just 1 trust and 5 players, that trust would have been boosted by 5 levels or +25 to all stats, so it stands to reason that at 25 in all stats they are the same, and anything higher is better than the best that was formerly possible.

I didn't notice the old trust system did anything until it was gone lol. Over capacity was complete for me and i did get the +x level vs. #people in party buff. I usually farm Dyna D on my mlvl 25 thf and usually go with two other people. So I have a party of 3 with 3 trusts. Before the patch dropped my trust never died to Mijin Gakure from mobs in there. After the new trust patch dropped, Mijin Gakure totally wipes out all my trust. So it did something!!! lol

I just maxed out HP and VIT and will report back to see if they still die later.
