Please change the requirements to become mentor

[HyoMinPark]

Except that you do need those things to be an official mentor, otherwise you're just another player.

They probably got the status via crafting/gathering—it has different requirements from a PvE mentor.


As for the commendations, I rarely give commendations to people I think were “the best” of a run. My comms go to whoever I think deserve them, be it because they’re funny, they have a cool glamour, a cool name, etc.. Point is, comms are not a sign of a good player: you could have gotten your comms from just being a tank/healer, even if you aren’t a “good” tank or healer, because some people default to always comm’ing the tank/healer.

I mean, I think there should be something to “fix” the mentor system, but I don’t think the answer is in upping the amount of commendations.

How about a "Rate-the-mentor" pop-up at the end of a dungeoun, trial, whatever, displayed in the profile for everyone to see how much you actually do care about mentoring newbies or just want that (rather ugly) crown over your head with numbers of ratings and somewhat like an overall 1-5 stars summarythingy, I dunno.

I disagree. Because people will be petty and 1-star rate people out of spite. Tank did something you didn’t like, and was a mentor? 1 star. Healer was DPSing and you think healers should only heal (even though no one came close to dying and the run went super smooth)? 1 star. See someone from your server that you don’t like? 1 star.

Bad idea.
