    This is a great idea for a benchmark. Something all the benchmarks seem to be missing is strategy, tactical solutions in most of the benchmarks are all thats required but here requires actual long term thinking and tactical thinking, balancing and orchestration.

        Wow this is super cool. I wonder when LLMs get cheap enough that NPCs will be able to have full conversations with players.

        Not sure they’re the best option for raiding, but as a high-level orchestrator for choosing content, that sounds pretty great.

        Just curious: do you know the expected XP gain over the first 90 minutes for a human player (either a medium-level one or a speedrunner)?
