    Trial Instance Timer

    Extreme trials require more time. Explaining mechanics takes a lot of time, especially complex trials like Sephirot. Waiting for replacements can also take a lot of time.

    This issue mainly affects mentors. Mentors are the most common players that regularly see Extreme trials in the Duty Finder.

    Please increase the instance timer in Trials to 90 minutes.

    Really, they should just remove EXs from mentor roulette, but I guess that's not happening.

    If you need more than 60 minutes to clear an EX trial (especially the realative easy ones from ARR except maybe Ramuh) then my guess is the group is too bad to clear the trial even with a 90 min timer.

    If ppl make it to HWs (4th I think) EX trial Sephirot and still don't look up the mechanics before the fight I will just leave the instance if I get thrown there in mentor roulette. I think it's rude if you let other, prepared players wait until all the mechanics have been typed out to you. I am happy to help with specific questions about mechanics but that's it.

    I don't think a 90 min timer will make a clear more likely than a 60 min timer, you will just see more replacements come and go.
