Thread: 3.3 horse mount

I don't mind that is is locked behind DR Mentor. Most people who try to farm for it that have no interest in actually helping people will burn out soon enough due to the frequency of 2.X EX primals that pops up.

I've had this happen once out of 50 something runs. People immediately left before it even begun, and once it was clear it wasn't getting anywhere, I did too. It's not a huge deal to end up in one, and the list of duties is immense so it isn't actually all that likely. I get guildhests most of the time.

Consider yourself lucky then. On average lately, I get a 2.X EX primal roughly 15% of the time. There are some days where I go into DR: Mentor and I get an EX primal 4 runs in a row. I also stick through each of them until we clear the trial, time runs out, or a vote abandon passes.

Uh... You get daily rewards.

But you can do the Mentor Roulette as many times as you want to get those clears up.

Remember, 10 clears a day for Mentor Roulette for 200 days will get you that mount.

Or 5 clears for 400 days.

Depends on how you want to divvy it up.

Well thanks SE, im not going to level up a tank class just for a damn mount...

I too was disappointed, not only with how large a grind it is, but how it's inevitably going to affect (or already affecting, judging by Selli's post) mentor roulette. I was discussing this with a friend days ago about how they themselves wanted to keep the rewards "small" to "to reduce the number of players who may become mentors purely to get their hands on rewards", and we both did not expect they would place such a unique mount behind it. A mount, sure, but a majestic armored horse that would inarguably appeal to many players, I would not exactly call that "small" by any means. To that, it feels like a 180 to those prior sentiments.

Will I still do a mentor roulette everyday? Probably, yes. As I do enjoy helping legitimate new adventure who are receptive to such help. But grinding 5-6 roulettes a day toward a goal of 2,000 and dealing with players who are intolerable to you and your aid JUST because the roulette turns on that little crown icon multiple times a day? No thank you.

I also hate to be one of those players but...I'm actually hoping (maybe encouraging) SE to make a lazy recolor/text of it obtainable through other means later for once. Of course not all achievement mounts have recolors, but the 3k commendation mount now has two "alternatives" counting its predecessor from the PS4 collectors edition. I don't expect others to agree but, eh.
