Whenever I see "Timed elapsed" , i get one fear for every +10 min elapsed.

[@elgatochurro]

Time elapsed? Passed?

[@Someone-dv7hw]

I like seeing that actually. Cuz one, it's usually more interesting than being shoved into a regular 90 dungeon just for headcount. Even better if it's one of the newbie killer trials and I join as healer. Two, I genuinely enjoy the challenge and helping people so long as I got time (always take that into consideration with mentor roulette). Ofc that stops being the case if no one reads chat or listens to the advice. In that case we go straight to number 3, you can just leave if it's an actually bad situation. It's a game, take it in stride and assume fun to be had, Mentors don't have to be perfect either and soon your fears will evaporate

[@SniperKing-O]

"Of sorrow and hopes demise." Lmao, perfect timing!

[@ygnizemcenia6059]

Happened to me aswell during Titan EX where I was greeted by Upheaval and another with Landslide. XD

[@silverstrider2046]

There is no greater despair than getting a SB Extreme Trial. I had NEVER in 10 years playing, even considered that a possible option. ARR and the occasional HW extreme, yes. A SB extreme? You are out your mind

[@trustytrest]

Try a SHB Extreme. Especially one like Varis EX, with a sprout that doesn't even know what clock spots means and says "lol idc lets just beat him"

[@lunarya2855]

[@yaebestgirl]

everyone fears duty in progress but I embrace it I love getting ex trials in mentor roulette

[@horyzon3143]

Thats the normal trial...

[@yaebestgirl]

@@horyzon3143 I know but typically the reason people hate join in progress is because it's usually an ex trial

[@KenanVonKaiser]

Perfect Timing!

[@kuronaialtani]

Ngl I haven’t even dared put my foot into the “enter duty in progress” setting for mentor roulette yet and I’ve got like 60 something duties in the roulette down so far I’ve seen and heard horror stories, I don’t wanna live one yet

[@mandudez810]

For every bad one you get you get at least one good one such as a dungeon at the last boss or even an alliance roulette actively fighting the last boss so you literally have to do nothing but wait 5 minutes for a free clear. But most of the time they are "meh" like someone left at the start of a dungeon because they didn't like THAT dungeon that much or something.

[@grandmomswalker3750]

Accurate

[@cooldav222]

i miss the plug-in that tells you what you was about to que in

[@shooby9496]

Immediately squished.

[@G1adyat0r]

Tried mentor roulette once and got the ARR Shiva extreme which I’ve never done synced I dropped out fast lol I then went and got mentor removed.

[@ShadowSeroZoul]

The extremes aint that bad honestly and i like teaching people the mechanics if they are open to listening to them

[@XelaShade]

@@ShadowSeroZoul we need more people like you that help newer players, good stuff man!

[@filthycasualgaming9715]

@@ShadowSeroZoul Ramuh EX is the worst. I tried to explain the fight to sprouts for 30 mins ( I joined in progress ). They didnt listen and we didnt see the fight past add phase

[@arcadia7341]

@@filthycasualgaming9715 idk, felt like one of the easier ones for me personally, garuda was harder xD

[@ZechsMerquise73]

@@filthycasualgaming9715 Seriously. Tried it for a while with half an FC group, and no DPS would :ever: listen about attacking the adds, even the mentors. Because, of course, you don't have to attack the adds in unsynced, and what they've done in the past overwrites all human cognition for most endgame FF players.

[@williamchicas1208]

This video is tempting me to be a mentor.......

[@Xport9]

Just Mentor things. 🤣

[@Gamemaster-64]

You have been found wanting. btw this isn't just a mentor thing, can get this through the normal trial roulette. When I get it and theres new people I'm like wtf you no use trust?

[@ShadowSeroZoul]

To be honest i didnt use trust either i just like learning with randoms but it was like day 4 or something after release

[@TheDaxter11]

@@ShadowSeroZoul I don't even use trust for learning, that's just a bonus. I use it for the quick queues and because from a story perspective it makes sense to do it with the scions.

[@timbrady1176]

You cannot get hydi ex through trial roulette

[@Gamemaster-64]

@@timbrady1176 But this isn't extreme.

[@timbrady1176]

@@Gamemaster-64 whoops you right D:! xD

[@runarhrothgar]

I've done Mentor roulette about 80 times so far. I've had Moogle, Shiva and Ramuh extreme like 15 times already haha. Completed every time 😎

[@ShadowSeroZoul]

If people are willing to learn instead of insta flame you for being mentor its nice XD

[@runarhrothgar]

@@ShadowSeroZoul yeah hah .. thankfully no bad experiences yet. My bad experiences have been with mentors joining to fill then insta leaving. Pretty sad behaviour. The sprouts have been better (but this is quite common)

[@acehealer4212]

Is it okay to talk about player character names? I find it funny in this group there are two people with lore-friendly Miqo'te names, one is edgy Greek goddess first name + popular JPRG character last name, and one person is just "Happy Holiday," which is cute.

[@Vaith]

put in place

[@Hjortur95]

typical mentor 🙄

[@Akanalusa]

🤣

[@kazumazu3632]

I got the mentor mount thank god I never have to suffer like that ever again

[@XelaShade]

until they add better looking mount >:)

[@john_7000]

U don't deserve that mount cuz u basically only doing this for that without mentoring anyone, u supposed to continue doing that to teach new ppl but who am I talking to this community is the most lazy u have ever seen they only do stuff for something

[@XUIW]

I recently finished my mentor roulette and got my mount! The suffering is over! :)

[@HezrouDhiaga]

Yes. You can get every EX.

[@THiiro]

You can only get old expansion EX trials, you cannot get current expansion extreme trials in the roulette. This is Hydaelyn normal

[@NeoDMC]

@@THiiro Yeah was gonna say if this was EX they wouldn't be able to kill those crystals like that with the add there.

[@DacianGradaMusic]

mentor would be fine if it didn't include ex trials... idk why you can even queue into those, only JP does it for current content because the strats get normalized after a bit and they have macros too; the rest is just waste of time when you could actually help people with stuff that matters

[@RicardoSantos-oz3uj]

That wasn't even Ex. That was normal. To be honest. If you are a mentor, you signed up for it. Thus have no right to bitch about it.

[@ShadowSeroZoul]

I don't see anyone bitching about it in any way. XD not sure where this reaction is comming from but i hope you have a good day

[@gwolf1985]

your where newbie at one time yourself. or did you forget.
