I feel much better with the new requirements, because since 5.1 dropped, I went from seeing almost a third of players in a duty being mentors to one or two in alliance raids max (and often none in trials and dungeons). It really shows that these people that are supposed to be so experienced don't even have 1500 comms. For perspective, I've played on and off since launch, as all roles, and I'm just barely reaching 1500 comms (I have like 1460 or something). I don't do a lot, but I've still seen a lot of the game. If these people don't even have more comms than me, how are they supposed to be so much more qualified to mentor people?
