Most new players I've seen don't even react to normal dungeon simple mechanics even if you explain them nicely, and we're expecting them to react and learn synced extremes in a single roulette run? good luck with that.
    If you dont think new players enjoy ex then you've never seen the excitement of a new players clearing one synced.. theyre excited they jump for joy the scream in relief.. making it threw a hard fight even if it takes almost the entire time is what they are there for.

    Its the thrill of a 1% wipe of knowing you'll beat it the next pull.. its seeing a new mechincs an aceing it right after..

    Just because you don't wanna spend a hour teaching someone how to do a fight dosnt mean the new players don't wanna do it..

    If you can't dedicate yourself to what fight you get placed into by the roulette then you shouldn't be doing that roulette..

    Mentor MSQ Alliance of these see so many people give up just because they don't wanna be there or they cheat to get an easy fight..

    Just stop doing it if your not going to help if your not going to teach.. if your not going to be the mentor you said you'd be

    Ok, let's figure out what a mentor should do. Screenshot from the game.



    And what about mentors' roulette? Let's read this page:

    Battle Mentors will also gain access to Duty Roulette: Mentor, which assigns players to duties that are struggling to fill party member slots.
    And what is the result? Any player can leave duty if something does not suit them. Mentors are no exception. They get their half-hour penalty.

    A lot of mentors do not make mentors' roulette although they have access to it. Does this mean that they are bad mentors and do not help newcomers? Nope.

    New players are overwhelmed with mechanics and instant deaths without actually having a chance to take part in the fight themselves. It might work on the first extremes like Gaurda or Ifrit. Sometimes you get someone who is somewhat used to the combat flow, but rarely. Newbies are often panicking to said mechanics and stepping where they shouldn't. They are used to regular dungeon mechanics of standing still and maybe dodging 1 slow red circle on the ground or a clear single indicator saying STAND HERE, and even then, those mechanics aren't punishing, they don't do them correctly but they still live and don't learn properly. I've seen this too many times. The low amount of people who get thrilled by that 1% wipe is really a vast minority compared to the everyday roulette experience.
