@tosicamir May be read next time the FAQ? It's said PvE are only solo on Switch and you CAN'T play with friends.

if you realy wanna thank me brother, you can help me hunt down bosses, gnomes and bounties, together with me when this glitch gets patched. But for now, lets Get as many people as possible aware of this problem. and have them complain here, So they fix it sooner.

See @ 3:24.

 

Like I said it's not a glitch, but a limitation of the hardware so it was removed.
