Newb question about group game play.

You can use the duty finder to queue into extreme trials. It's a little wonky in EU/NA as most people would expect you to PF those but with the mentor roulette you eventually get a group that's willing to give it a shot for a bit.
I'd say it's 50/50 chance you get a clear that way. It isn't uncommon for parties to ride the lockout and not manage to clear in that time for some of the trials.

You can, but set your expectations low, because it also isn't uncommon for those mentors to get frustrated and leave the second they find out they're in an extreme trial. Also, thanks to the new expansion, there's probably fewer mentors than ever actually running mentor roulette. Aside from just having other newer stuff to do, some of us no longer have access to the mentor roulette if we never bothered with some of the SB extremes (and the Great Hunt, ugh).
