10.2.5 Guide: Follower Dungeon

In 10.2.5 there is a new type of way to do normal dungeons. This is called “Follower Dungeon” and consists of you together with AI NPCs. The different roles that you get as AI will be based on what role you character has. If you have a dps, you will get a tank, a healer and dps. If you have a tank, you get a healer and dps and so on. 


How do I enter Follower Dungeon


Open up the Dungeon Finder and when you click on the dropdown list, you will find Follower Dungeon there. Now you can choose what role you want on your character and then que up. 


What difficulty is Follower Dungeon


This type of gameplay is only available in Normal Mode. 


What is the minum character level for follower dungeon


You can enter the Follower Dungeon from level 60 up to level 70.


What dungeons are included in Follower Dungeon?


The available dungeons are all the 8 Dragonflight dungeons in Normal mode.


How does it work?


You will enter the dungeon and fight through it in the similar way as if there are real players there. You can choose who leads the dungeon and based on what you choose, there will be different outcomes.If you choose not to lead, the tank will initiate combat, but the AI companions will wait for you after defeating a group. If you do not choose to lead, the AI companions will wait until you start attacking before the tank jumps in. 

If the AI companions die during a boss fight and you, as the tank, are still alive, they will be resurrected immediately. 

The speed of the dungeon is slower when you're not tanking. The AI tank pulls enemies gradually, but if you pull more enemies, the tank will take care of them.

The damage dealt by the AI companions is lower than my level 60 character with an item level of 187.

It seems like there is always one AI companion that deals decent damage, one that deals moderate damage, and one that performs poorly (especially if you are a healer). If you are a DPS, then one AI companion will perform well while the other will struggle.


What are the rewards


Boss loot is randomized as usual in normal dungeons. Trash mobs are distributed to all players as usual. 


Why Follower Dungeon


The dungeons are great for practicing your class such as healing or trying out new healing abilities. They are also good for practicing tanking. You can take your time without feeling stressed by other players.
