I've kept my mentor status on since getting it.

I think it's a good opportunity to go against the grain and be a helpful person despite the popular opinion on mentors. I try not to say too much unless someone says it's their first time doing a dungeon or someone is constantly failing a mechanic. I will admit sometimes I just plain remain silent and see if someone can pick up mechanics as they go. Sometimes it's the best way people learn.

I've also had parties where people ask me if they're doing okay and ask about tips. I definitely understand this personally and try to give some solid tips and let them know they're doing good, even if they die, especially if they're trying to improve.

Bottom line is as a mentor I try not to nitpick over certain things or act like I'm above someone. Just because I'm a mentor doesn't mean I've mastered every single mechanic. You don't need a crown over your head to do the job either. What matters above all is that you're willing and able.
