What is the FFXIV Trust System?
The trust system is a special feature of FFXIV introduced in the third expansion, Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers. Like a very similar FFXI and Adventurer Squadrons element introduced in Patch 3.4, Trust System allows you to create a light party to participate in some unique dungeons.
Trust System NPC member.
The light party you can create is made by you and three NPCs members of the Scions of the seventh dawn and others. Each of these characters has their own job and role in the party. Remember that a light party is made up of 1 tank, 1 healer, and 2 DPS.
The Trust System has two elements: Scenario Mode and Avatars Mode.
Scenario Mode
Regarding the Trust System, Scenario Mode is the first way to participate in it; just approach a dungeon previously cleared. You will see several allies standing near the dungeon entrance. Just talk with them to add them to the party.
In Scenario Mode, the NPCs always are in the minimum required level, the chests have fewer rewards, and some enemies do not drop items.
Avatar Mode
Entering the Avatar Mode of Trust System requires you to complete the main scenario quest Shadowbringer. When you do this, Scenario Mode is locked.
To access this mode, just go to the FF14 Duty Finder, select Trust. In the new window that appears, select the dungeon and your companions.
In Avatar mode, NPCs start at level 71 and gain experience through the duty. Reaching level 80 with a character unlocks a new appearance.
When all characters reach level 80, Scenario Mode is unlocked, and you will be rewarded with the achievement ‘Bound by Faith’ and the title ‘Trusted Friend.’
How to Unlock the Trust System?
You can access Trust System and Scenario Mode for the first time by unlocking the level 71 dungeon, Holminster Switch. To use this element in other cleared duties, you need to complete that duty even once. In the main scenario, the available characters depend on the dungeon.
