This is why I don't think the "give more achievement points if ex" is a good idea. It just reinforces the fact that mentor is something you do for the mount, and only attracts more people who shouldn't be mentors to begin with.

I don't care about the mount, I just care to help others. That's how it should be.
BUT, as others have said, EXes shouldn't be done in DF, especially old ones even most veterans have no clue how to do, and most of the time it's just carrying an undergeared and unprepared sprout. Yes, mentors are there to help people, but not to carry them. From what I heard, rarely ever DF EXes result in a clear, even with all the help of mentors, because people who queue for them do so because the quest tells them so, they're actually unprepared for the difficulty, and often with very low ilvl. Very rarely it results in a clear no matter how much you try. And honestly, teaching EXes fights to someone who just started the game is not only something a mentor shouldn't have to do, but also something sprouts shouldn't waste time on. At that level people often don't even know how to turn on tank stance and things like that, they're just seeing 9men trials for the first time even in normal/hard mode, figures being ready for EXes. They just should make them unquable on DF, but JP works differently so....
