    Mentor Roulette

    Hello everyone!
    I just recetly came back to the game and noticed hat they appearently changed the mentor requirements, I was so happy I finally got to be a mentor! After a little fiddling around in the game, trying to get used to everything again, I noticed that I can now do Mentor Roulettes. However, I don't meet the requirements needed to do this. I've tried to search the web to figure out what I need to do, but all I find is endless lists of dungeons, trials, raids etc. that I appearently need to do. But When I'm in game it is just this short list:

    Can someone please help me fill out the "???" so I can finally do mentor roulettes!
    Thank you all! <3
    PS: I assume the last 3 "???" is the diffrent parts of the Alex raid. The third from the top is the one I'm more curious about

    Yes, the last three ???’s are for the rest of Alexander Creator (Normal Mode). So A10N, A11N, and A12N. :3

    Do you have a lock-out on other roulettes like Trials or 50/60 because of incomplete duties? That might tell you what type of content you need to do for the ??? under Pharos.

    Mentor roulette wants you to have run basically everything in the game that isn't savage or current expansion extreme primal.

    I'm thinking that ??? below Pharos Sirius is Pharos Sirius (Hard)

    The rest are Alexander, as was already stated above.

    The second one is definitely Pharos Sirius (Hard), since all pre-Stormblood dungeons are required and you haven't done Pharos Sirius original yet.

    I don't really get the point of putting Extreme content in the Mentor Roulette.

    Mentors are for helping newbies/returnees get acquainted with the game, and help them get through content. No Newbie or recent Returnee is probably going to be concerned with trying to clear, say, Containment Extreme runs.

    That’s for people who queue up for the content via Duty Finder. Back when I did Mentor Roulette in HW, 9 times out of 10 it was for an ARR Extreme primal that people were queuing up for in DF as opposed to PF. Mentor Roulette is basically a way to fill waiting queues.

    Even if no one is offered the slot it wont offer me the spot. I know this because if I manually select the duty it will select me as the Tank, but if I queued as Mentor it won't. I've tried this dozens and dozens of times. It has nothing to do with offering other people the slot. It will always give a Tank a fresh instance over an in progress one. It literally happened 2 hours ago when I posted this.

    As a Mentor I should be allowed to swap my role to another role should the party need it. Too many times you're doing content and a Tank leaves and I'm thinking, I could tank this if the game would just let me swap my role. Obviously you should only be allowed to swap to a role that is missing so people cant swap when it's not needed. This would prevent a lot of parties from abandoning. The only other way to get around this is for me to leave, swap to Tank and sign up again which leads to my second point....

    Mentor roulette should prioritise backfilling content and not starting new instances. A lot of times when I leave an instance, swap to Tank and sign up again, it will try and put me into a fresh instance which will either cost me 1 of my 3 abandons a day to stop, or for me to accept this new queue and leave a party that needs a Tank stranded forcing them to vote abandon.
