Astrope, the 2 seater pegasus takes over 5 years to obtain if you do it casually

If you run 10 roulettes per day is little under a year that you will require to get a mount. Considering that it is a mount (two seats) we are talking seems to me reasonable. Is alot for those that want the mount right away.

10 runs a day is not reasonable at all, I think you're underestimating mentor roulette, you can spend the whole day getting nothing but extreme fights. You can be the best mentor in the world, but if the new people are unwilling to follow your advice, you can get max echo and run out of time and you're unlikely to clear at all.

Unless you get lucky and get nothing but dungeons and hests for all 10 roulettes of the day, it will be far from reasonable.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I'm not saying 10 roulettes a day is impossible, is very possible, but it's not reasonable, it ends up being the only thing you'd do every day, and only possible for people with too much free time.

2000 roulettes is way absurd, especially since every few roulettes I get some EX trial that takes 1h and half the time doesn't even result in a win. I currently stay and help as best I could, but there is no way I can do that 500 times let alone 2000 times. I think this achievement would only make dropping/abandoning from these Ex trials happen more.

I think a more reasonable approach would be 2000 minutes in mentor roulette duties. Maybe do a 1.5x bonus on minutes if the duty results in a clear, and every commendation while mentoring adds 10 minutes to the counter. That way people won't cheese through with easy guildhest roulettes, and would actually stay and help with clears on trails that wipe a lot because every minute counts towards the reward.

Change the achievement to:

Receive 1000 (or even 2000) Commendations in Mentor Roulette Duties.

-> Mentors have to actually be nice / helpful to work up to it. (or at the very least not be unfriendly / rushing)
-> Lower 'minimum amount of duties' required, since you can get multiple commendations a run

This is what it should have been. 2000 commendations while you have the mentor tag up. It reinforces being helpful and actually mentoring.

Lol no thanks. It does the same thing as my amber chocobo...

Not gonna lie, my happy little dream of owning this was crushed when the patch went live.

I think a lot of people are missing the point of it being 2000 mentor roulettes.

This is a long term goal and to get people to do the mentor roulette multiple times per day. They fully expect players to give up.

This is not supposed to be a casual thing.

5 Years

The game itself is barely 5 years old

They are going to release this mount with a different skin on the mog station in few months anway, so I will be waiting for that one.

There is a difference between a long term goal, and... this.

Long term goal would be a few months, such as the relic grind. Not 5-6 years. Thats absurd. Not to mention they will attract more of the wrong crowd than do any good.

And that is no reason not to put down a long term goal that would keep some people subscribed and playing daily.

200 days if you do 10 roulettes a day, a bit over 1 year if you do 5 per day, and 2.75 years if you do 2 a day. The Mount, Monocle and Mentor of Mentor titles are incentives to get mentors queuing more than once per day.

The "wrong crowd" is more likely to give up rather than actually complete it. It takes dedication and an acceptance that it will be trying and tiring.
