    Ok let me preface by saying I totally don't mind when a healer feels uncomfortable DPSing because they thing they can't do both. But what about all these WHM, that are usually mentors like the one just now, that couldn't be assed to even just Aero a boss. Like it bothers me deep inside. This is just Qarn Normal. Not even just casting an INSTANT DOT. I'm sorry it's just like so many times I get a healer in an easy dungeon and they just stand there.

    Majority of mentors are just there for the free bonuses.They generally play worse than non mentors and they tend to leave instances on tank or healer on load if they dont like what they got dragged into.
    Mentor status means nothing like it always has.

    Speaking of mentors.I had a raid recently in Weeping City.it was pointed out early one that a player was deliberatly getting themselves locked out of every fight.
    They joined in for Ozma after being called out on it.
    Then on last boss guess who locked themselves out again of the fight.Same person.
    Turns out they were a mentor.

    Mentors are just players who happen to have 1 healer, 1 tank and 1 DPS at level 70, nothing more.

    Some of us try to be more, but I've seen way too many people who barely know the basics talking s*** in duty, or even worse, playing like they've been lobotomized. Sometimes I get a little weary of Mentor Roulette after getting a synced EX primal that gets vote abandoned 5 times in a row, but that's when I take the crown off and do some solo leveling stuff. Some people should never wear it to begin with.

    What I mean is, mentors are just players, who happen to have a few job to 70. And that's it. I am a "mentor" myself, it didn't change me at all. I spend time to help people, point out bad habits and strive to improve as I always did. The mentor status doesn't change anything. Actually, I believe it makes things worse, because of the "you're a mentor so you must be perfect" mentality, creating more frustration for newer players.

    Truer words have never been spoken about mentor status.

    I only run Mentor Roulette when I'm feeling like the night has been good for parties. If parties have been...well, lets just say "lacking" to be nice....then I avoid it. But if I get good parties for most of what I did that night, then yeah I will join and help out to the best of my abilities(and admit when I fail to remember/know the fight well enough to guide)

    I think I'mma keep tanking. War is feeling really good now that I can use the rage bar. And why does it feel so good? my last party in longstop I just had.. were silent but awesome. 73 left on the timer, left with 3 comms, and had the biggest pulls I ever done there. To the healer I had. You were the true hero in a world of no more heroes. Seriously I would've died like sonic in spikes if she wasn't kicking ass. And you let me practice pulling stupid large. I didn't think that would be fun. I used to hate mass pulling.. but talk about turning a new leaf.
    Edit. Yes I'm STILL listening to Kill or be killed from No more heroes 2. Repeat is a wonderful feature.

    Did the requirements get cut back since the Mentor system was launched?

    At launch, in addition to the above, a Mentor needed to have completed 1,000 instanced battles, and have 300 comms.

    Also, it's not 70. It's 60.

    If people are going to criticize something they should at least use the right information.
