Even more fantasy

That’s not all folks. Further details for revisions to the A Realm Reborn main scenario content were also revealed. Among them, the new Duty Support system will be implemented for A Realm Reborn (2.0) content in Patch 6.1.

With this new system, all 4-player main scenario dungeons and trials will be able to be completed with NPCs. The Duty Support System will also be expanded in future updates. This is to support Patch 2.x content, as well as Heavensward expansion content and beyond.

All of this is just music to my ears, ladies and gentlemen.
