Mentor Roulette needs a serious overhaul

[Deveryn]

Yes & no. They use PF like we do for practice but swap to DF once they're ready for quick clears & farms.

So yeah, removal of hard-queueing for DF extremes in general won't happen cause that'll be screwing over how JP does things. However if they could do it by region where JP can still have hard queues and NA doesn't, that could be a compromise.

Regional differences like that seem unlikely. I think it would be better to try and get them to put more signs in the game pointing to PF for practicing content beyond the normal level.

Only masochist do mentor roulette lol

LMAO, mentor roulette is mostly guildhest what masochism is it in there.

The only change it needs is if the mentor is the first to leave an instance in mentor roulette, they lose mentor status and the roulette for 24 hours.

Sprouts stacking the electric aoes in Striking tree Ex while the tanks do their swaps by dying;
Getting someone that doesn’t speak English and keeps killing everyone.

In that case, either one of these would work:

A ) If you do it 3 times within 4 weekly rests, you lose mentor for the next 4 weeks.

or

B ) You lose one completion for your achievement in addition to the penalty.

or Both.

Or they could remove EXs from the roulette. THAT is what the Roulette actually needs

[Absimiliard]

Either require mentors to have all levels of content completed or remove anything above normals from the roulette. Frankly, the former should probably happen regardless of whether or not extremes are removed from it. Excessively low requirements to earn the BK crown are why it's such a meme at this point. At least half of the people walking around with the crown are worse at the game than the ones they're apparently supposed to assist.

...I'm not sure what these other people sacrificed to the RNG gods to avoid getting screwed over by the mentor roulette, but hoboy. Try Sophia EX with six sprouts and one of those "I cleared this when it was current content" Ultimate Legends that eats every mechanic. Dude got more air time than a skateboard at the X Games.

Naw, it's a problem with mentors. Where's your pitch fork against another just average player who's not getting paid to do anything. They need to sign away their lives away and anything thing that could even remotely be blamed on them is only their fault.
Where are you hiding the mentors, in your house? In the basement? Someone undercut me by 1 gil and I just know all mentor is to blame. We need to put mentor in work camps and concentration workshops.

As unlikely as you think it be, it do.
