Being a bad mentor(we should be able to report ppl for being a bad mentor)

[Jojoya]

Extremes are a bit more than “more harder” and you will find more success if you use the party finder. If you don’t want it to be faceroll easy then be sure to make it clear it’s a synced min item level first time clear.

It’s not really up to you what a mentor should be, either. These mentors are human too, with flaws and everything. If someone doesn’t want to hold your hand through harder content they don’t have to.

Looks like you need a review of what a mentor is supposed to be.

Let me quote the pertinent information:

- What is a mentor?
Mentors are veteran players who chose to offer their time and experience to help guide new adventurers. To facilitate their assistance, mentors will gain access to a special chat channel as well as a means to easily register for duties and trials with new players.

If someone doesn't want to behave as described by SE, then they should turn off their mentor status. Yes, it means they aren't going to get credit toward the mentor roulette but the mount is a reward for being helpful, not for having a crown attached to your name.

If the player is not acting appropriately for a mentor, they absolutely should be reported so SE can remove them from the program.

The question is, are you still a new adventurer when you are lvl 70 and going into an extreme fight? Because for me someone new is someone at least under 50/60 that is still learning to play their job and might need some help in lower dungeons to get a grip on how to do their job. So for me putting those ex trials in the roulette was already a big mistake from SE because ex trials are not for really new people. This is content that you do with a static or a group that will need to train for a few rounds. Or can someone really say that they find it possible to explain something like Thordan Ex or Nidhogg Ex to complete strangers that might have never even seen the fight? Especially if its from roulette thus the mentor itself might not know about this 100% too.

That's probably the real issue here. Extreme primals need to be relegated to party finder only. If it is sync'd extreme primal, I'd still consider it "end game", even if not current end game. And you can still be a new player even at lvl 70. First job you play just hit lvl 70, just get your lvl 70 job skill. That lvl 70 job skill changes how you play your job. And they've been skating by with a basic rotation up until then.
