    I think people would be more inclined to stick around for harder duties if they were actually rewarded better for it.

    Most mentors only run the roulette because they want the achievements and they're naturally not going to feel terribly inclined to stick around for something like extreme Heavensward primals when they could just back out and get an ARR dungeon instead.

    More incentive to stay would probably help, yeah. I rarely get anything other than a guildhest, but when I do get something else...it's usually an Ex primal. The other day I got Shiva Ex, for example. Not a terribly hard one to learn, thankfully, but if it were Thordan...I'd have probably stayed for a few wipes and called it a day if no progress was being made, but I would have tried to teach the new players a few things first. If there's actual progress being made I'd probably feel more inclined to stay. There just comes a point sometimes where you feel like you're simply wasting time.

    There's a long lasting suggestion to still have it tick for the achievement if you run out of time. Because if you were there for an hour on Titan Ex and weren't kicked for AFK, you probably tried to help and that should count for something. I'd add to that it should also count if there's a vote abandon in the last 15 minutes of the duty because if you've gotten that far you might just legit not have enough time for another attempt but you still tried.
