SE, Please consider removing EX trials from the Mentor Roulette.

[Deceptus]

Primarily, the mechanics required in an Extreme Trial can't be simplified into party chat. Because of that, whenever an EX trial pops, a few things happen: A party struggles for an hour or so and maybe completes it. Or, more often than not, someone abandons and then once that first person does (and takes the penalty), everyone else abandons as well.

Result: It does nothing but make people not want to queue for Mentor Roulettes because it can easily devolve into a waste of time.

If a player has reached the point where they are ready for EX Trials, they should be looking up guides on their own, making clear parties in the DF, etc. Extreme content was designed for high level play, which quite frankly most of the player base isn't ready for and can't accomplish.

While some people like the challenge of old synced content, and minimum ilvl content, there are far more who do not.

And if we're all being honest, EX content has zero bearing on the main story. It's completely optional content.
