It's time to revaluate paper crown battlementors

What if they removed the mentor status altogether? It's always been useless, people can answer sprouts' questions without being mentors and the sprout chat is whatever it's called is a joke since it's pretty much never used for its actual purpose

Honestly when I was doing Savage it made me want to play the game less. Dunno, my mind was mostly centered on those two static nights and anything else didn't capture me much. I'd like to be a Mentor myself, but not before I level all Jobs. I'm willing to go lengths to help if I'm asked questions, but I'd leave the Savage part to someone else. TBH I don't know someone who wouldn't just pass some YouTube video for Savage beginners/raid guides, Mentor or not.

In a year of playing, I've only met one helpful mentor, the rest of them were basically donuts.

The status really just needs to be removed or as another suggested, make the requirement current savage clears.

How many sprouts are playing current savage content and are going to have questions about it?

[Rein_eon_Osborne]

[...]99% of sprout questions don't require end game knowledge.

This, very much.
Sprouts are not stupid, but they don't really go around looking for mentors to ask about high end plays because they either unaware of it or don't need it to progress MSQ.

I doubt they will remove mentors because the JPN & EURO centers might have different experiences.

The Mentor Status will have to be universally disliked before considering removal.

The perks need to be removed to lower the number of people who are only in it for the crown and the mount.

Honestly getting guildhests in mentor roulettes is kind of dumb. There's barely any mentoring to do and usually it would only be to remind the tank to put stance on. I know mentor roulettes is there to help fill for duties but I'd probably remove guildhests from it and I'm not saying this because I did my grind either.

I actually think differently.
Even without mentor roulette, I've always been someone to do guilhests roulette daily just to help sprouts, because it's the one where you get to help sprouts the most.
First of all, guildhests almost only have sprouts. Second, they're menat to teach a lot of fight mechanics, and some of them are quite gimmicky and not very straightforward. Of course there's the text at the start explaining how it works, but due to it appearing after barriers drop, nobody really reads it (which is something I'd love to see changed, give people time to read it before dropping the barriers, tbh. So unless you get some super simple one, like the very first two, there's often some explaination to do. Even with one of the easiest, the gil turtle, sometimes it fails because people keep attacking and you have to explain them how it works.

I regularly answer sprout questions during prime time and the rest of the time it's used for socialization between sprouts and mentors which isn't bad per day. It's never bad to have someone to talk to and that can lead into me being able to help them more directly.

You can't advertise you are selling clears. Buying yes.

Actually have been seeing some people selling clears on the PF again in Aether. XD
