Yeah, just... That'd be really realistic. I mean, there is that button you can hit that'll say, I need directions, essentially.
Yeah. And that worked great in one particular situation. I got lost and I was like, I don't know where the next tunnel is. Like, this is just really, it's really obtuse where this is located, or at least it felt like it. So I hit that toggle and the character says something like, you want me to lead? No problem.

And this mage goes running out and then starts walking toward a hole in the wall and went, oh, that's the hole. Okay, nevermind. And then I untoggled it immediately and kept leading. So just giving me the tools. I really appreciate that. I do think there's room, though, I'll say this, for follower dungeons to also scale some difficulty. The base level is very, very simple.

They give you some good gear in there for your first time in there. It's definitely going to be an eye-level improvement over what you walked in there with. But it's not amazing. And it'd be nice if I went through there a couple of times on regular and then went, all right, I'm ready for a heroic follower dungeon or even some sort of mythic adjacent difficulty.

I mean, I still think people should be nicer and go, oh, no worries. The first time in here, check it out. It's over here. Like, but no one does that anymore. They should. They don't.

Yeah, because they're all kind of in it together trying to figure it out.
Yeah, because they're all kind of in it together trying to figure it out.
Yeah, it's very cool. So we'll see what they end up doing with it. you know, I walked out of there going, this is cool. It's just cool that it exists. I may never use it more than the first times I go through each new dungeon and see them. I may never touch it again after that for, for that entire expansion. I don't know why I would. Right. But, but now I know them. Now I can go in there.

I can properly lead a run through there. I can do it with friends and strangers. I ran some her. Oh, the one, the one thing that does throw you is immediately almost after I finished the last dungeon of this expansion, um,

on follower mode, I immediately queued up for a heroic version of the same thing and got in right away because I was a tank and I was a little nervous, but I knew this place now, right? I was like, okay, I can do this. The bosses throw, you know, starting with heroic and moving forward, especially in a mythic, they start throwing new mechanics at you. Yeah.

And I was like, oh, these weren't on the floor when I was here last time. Shit.
