Trust System

Key elements of this article are incomplete. You can help the Final Fantasy XIV Wiki by expanding it.

The Trust System is a feature introduced in Shadowbringers (5.0). This system allows you to challenge dungeons from main scenario quests with a party of allied NPCs.

Parties must be composed of 1 tank, 1 healer, and 2 DPS. This feature cannot be used while in a party with other players.

Using the Trust System

Scenario mode

After reaching the quest objective to clear a dungeon in the main scenario, several allied NPCs will be standing near the dungeon's entrance. Speak with them, and you will have the option to add them to your party and enter the dungeon.

Upon re-leveling all Trust avatars to 80, Scenario mode will be unlocked for free usage, allowing you to re-enter any dungeon as though it was your first time.

Avatar mode

The Trust system can be used to enter dungeons you have already completed. First, select Trust under Duty in the main menu. In the window that appears, select the dungeon you wish to enter and the NPCs to accompany you.

Prior to completing the Main Scenario Quest "Shadowbringers", Trust avatars will always be the minimum level to enter the dungeon. Afterward, they will revert to level 71 and begin accumulating experience according to the following table.

Duty	Level	EXP
Holminster Switch	71	6,250,000
Dohn Mheg	73	7,975,000
The Qitana Ravel	75	9,900,000
Malikah's Well	77	12,025,000
Mt. Gulg	79	14,350,000
Amaurot	80	0
The Grand Cosmos	80	0
Anamnesis Anyder	80	0
The Heroes' Gauntlet	80	0
Matoya's Relict	80	0

Once a Trust has reached level 80, the player is given the option of glamouring the character into one of their past appearances.
