What was in your Mentor Roulette?

[SuperZay]

I tanked Fractal Continuum yesterday (2 new players) and healed Stone Vigil today (3 new players). Each took well over 40 minutes to complete.

After few more dungeons and guildhests I got Shiva Extreme. I don't think most of Extremes should be included in Roulette, this content is tailored for statics and not clearable through DF if ther are some new players. Mentors tips or not, it was still 1 hour of wipes and disbanding.
It does not work.

If they learned how to complete the duty, then yes, it did work. It's not for your seals - it's for their learning. Maybe you should re-think being a mentor if you're not in it to teach others.

I got the Under The Armor guildhest today. lol

They'll learn some bits of the fight... Then que again and meet another 6 first-timers. After another hour of wipes they'll disband and it'll repeat who knows how many times.
Do you think new players find this fun? Does that make the game attractive to them?
Getting knowledge of the fight is nice, but what's the point of it if it doesn't give you a clear? It's infinite loop of wipes until you get an almost full party of people who know the fight.

while I cannot say, that is the OP agenda there are a lot of people abusing the system already.

OP Shiva is really easy to learn, teach the fight to the members

and it seems you are missing the point of the mentoring system. If you want clears go into PF or if your Jp than go to DF for the clear. This system was to help newer players LEARN and to match up with players willing to teach and assist in their jobs.

I found a titan storymode with a brand new drg. So I explained every move he would use and the effects. Probably should have mentioned titan hates dry as the poor guy was sent flying by a landslide /cry
