Please remove MSQ dungeons from Mentor roulette

[Mithron]

Green Leafs do not need my help watching cutscenes, but other Green Leafs do need my help with actual other content. I'm happy to coach seven of you through any extreme trial, but not cutscenes.

I'm pretty sure they don't need your help in Sastasha either, so let's just remove these early dungeons too while we are it.

Imo they should have watering can mentors who have an easy mentor roulette (all content required by msq), and then the current icon with bias (not pure exclusion) to harder content (which also will reward 2 points to achievement, when it's specifically one of the harder content).

As someone who's completed about 2500 mentor roulettes; it comes off a lot more as a back fill as opposed to "find someone that needs guidance". Most of the time in mentor roulette you need not say anything specific and only serve the purpose of getting the queue to pop for the person who is trying to do whatever quest took them there. The three big MSQ's being on the mentor roulette as well as having their own roulette do need that extra assistance for getting the sprouts passed that part of the story in my opinion. I would be in favor with making the reward for doing those instances tied to the instance itself as opposed to once a day on the MSQ roulette though.

I did most of my mentor stuff on the Crystal DC though so maybe it's different for the OP.

You could say this about 90% of the content they put you in via that roulette.

^This.

What you choose to queue as for mentor roulette on can have an impact on what you get as well.

I personally found that queueing as a tank/healer tended to get me put into 'mundane' things like MSQ roulettes more frequently, so I started to queue as a DPS with 'join in progress' enabled instead. That seemed to make it it much more common for me to be queued into 'obscure' 8+ player duties, namely EX trials which I genuinely enjoyed doing.

That's fine. Just take out the two MSQ cutscene ones. We already have MSQ roulette for those players.

Some of my favorite memories is coaching a bunch of Green Leafs through ARR extreme trials in Mentor roulette, and they love the game far more afterwards once they "get" how slightly harder content and mechanics work. There's also been several dungeons I'm Mentoring with a bunch of Green Leafs and I'm the only one saving them from wipes with my Raises, heals, good damage or tanking.

I find that rather interesting. When I qued as DPS with those settings I'd get pulled into a lot of alliance, dungeons, trials, and guildhests. The only EX I'd routinely get pulled into was Rathalos. Queing as Tank or Healer mostly got me dungeons and EX with little variance. We are on the same world too. Did you do most of your queing at a certain time/patch?

I exclusively queued for them on Aether, back around 6.2-6.3 probably?

It's probably the Datacenter difference, Aether tends to have a lot more content-focused players in comparison to Crystal, at least that was my original rationale for queueing there.

At the end of the day it's all speculation and voodoo though, it could've just been purely cosmic chance that my experience was like that haha.

Give me as many Extreme Trials as possible. I am all about that life. Although I take whatever comes up no matter how annoying it is. Get it into ya.
