    Just up the requirements to mentor so that only the best players can achieve it.

    From there its easy to tell who the bad mentors are amongst a smaller number of players.

    it’s about attitude and being able to pass knowledge of the main game systems. Having cleared ultimates or the latest savages is irrelevant. Most of the time the questions are very basic.

    This. Exactly this. No sprout is going to be asking about Ultimate Raid mechanics or how to clear High Concept. Their questions are always going to be something like, "Okay, I'm confused, what's happening in the story right now?" or "How do I fly?" or "Can I get help queueing for X duty?"

    This. If people want to ask questions about current/sync'd exs+ then they're going to ask it in a place like the balance discord.

    NN is for sprouts. That's partly why the mentor bar is so low. Also, because a lot of the players that are omnis, that do current endgame crafts/raids don't really want to bother answering some poor sprout's question. Most of them are too busy flaunting their egos. So you'd end up needing more mentors.

    Even if you up the requirements, you are probably just going to get more people who bought their clears instead of your average mentor now. The amount of actually good players I've seen in NNs so far are vast minority to begin with.
