Guild Wars 2

I am still wearing my commander tag when mentoring. Not only do I realize mentor tags are 99% of the time not being used as mentors every time I treat them as mentors someone will tell me most apples are not mentors.

I really wish the apple had just been another icon you could use with a commander tag instead. Or maybe even a credit system somehow where mentoring lessened the cost of a mentor tag, but it still needed to be bought whether through gold or time. As it is right now practically every 80 has it and it makes a real mess for anyone trying to actually mentor.

So for other mentors. Do you use the commander tag, the mentor tag, or no tag?

I will use my mentor tag because I don’t have a commander tag.

I’ve never been willing to buy a commander tag because it’s very rare that I need a portable map marker, but it has come up occasionally and now I’ve got the mentor tag I can use that when I do.

I use my commander tag when I am leading or co-leading guild/map event/metas.
I use mentor tag when I am mentoring or showing people how to find things or escorting them to WPs or other map completion tasks.
I tag down otherwise.

I would love to use a mentor tag for mentoring. The problem is that not every mentor tag out there is a mentor and would answer questions.
