The Mentoring Requirements... *Rant Style*

[Callback]

Not checking 20 pages to see if this was mentioned, but on the other side of the mentor fence, after tonight I will qualify as a mentor, despite still feeling clueless.

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, or if this is just how it's meant to be coming into endgame before grabbing endgame gear, but I still have trouble getting 100%HQ/max scrip tier on even things below 60, and FORGET about HQing high level mats themselves. I'm lucky to push chimerical felt to 60% HQ (from NQ manes). I don't know if this is normal or I'm just bad. ARR everything was so easy, 100% all the time while leveling, class quests super easy even on just the NQ tools the previous ones gave. HW even getting HQ tools from a friend I never stood a chance at 100% on same-level class quest crafts. Even doing 58 quests at 60 I end up with 70-80% HQ chance.

And on the gathering side, while I am a BIT more confident, I've never touched a favor. I'm clueless how they work. I still need to look up timing guides for ephemerals, and while I'm good on how to best scum RNG to farm discipline aethersands, I don't know the best dawnborne farming rotation. I've got scrip rotations down to a science, but I still don't know what a lot of things do. Like why would you use patience II over patience? What the hell does fish eyes do? Why do some corals need snagging while others don't?



All these questions, yet I qualify as a mentor. I guess? How early of a "pupil" do they expect me to guide? I AM giving advice to guildies just starting out, but I can only really guide people to 50. The 60 endgame is still foreign to me.


And to the above post, very true. What are the "new red scrip items" mentioned that will be coming in the patch? Nobody knows yet.
