The problem with the mentor system

[SoranRigel]

I really don't think it matters what icon it is. No matter what icon they pick it still holds meaning inside the game and jerks may still "farm" for it. But I agree it would be worth trying.

Was it my impression, or do you admit that "the reward for help" system is broken?

I didn't say "the reward for help system is broken", so I think you misunderstood. I was talking about the crown icon being changed into something else instead. As I said multiple times now SE could try that.

Rewards in the system I don't know if it was a good idea, but that is just my on the fly opinion. I don't have much strong opinion on it either way, as long as mentors are polite, kind, and help people clear content the reward being there is fine. That might not always be the case though, not enough information to know how much problems it causes.

I'm very interested in what kind of help could be offered by the mentor who now was putting AOE under other players and breaking the mechanics in Arboretum (hard).
Oh, yes, it's just an "one-time experience."

This is very very wrong.

Human beings are not perfect. It is impossible for someone to do everything perfectly. Expecting mentors to be 100% perfect at the game, every encounter, every dungeon, every boss, every job rotation, every mechanic?

No one on this planet is perfect. Your expectations are way too high, to the point of ridiculousness.
