It doesn't change at all the real issues of mentor system, but I prefer 1500 commendations instead of 300. It was such easier to become mentor before and sometimes (often), a lot of mentors were as bad as novices ... because of this facility. Make ten Guildhests in a row, it takes you 1/2 minutes per guildhest, free commendations for you.

I mean, there are a few of them who are still incompetent but we feel it less than before. This new restriction has cleaned up a lot of mentors ... good mentors, unfortunately. Disastrous mentors too.
