The chat thing is pretty bad, but you can use the Grouping tool to post that you're looking for a mentor, much easier than having to spam in LFG every 30 seconds. Anyways, with the new 'growth' quests it's now unnecessary to do the mentor quests. They give you so much gear every 5 levels that you don't have to rely on the coins from mentor quests anymore.

As for Songweaver/Aethertech/Gunslinger, here's how they breakdown:

Songweaver: Very much a support class later on. They get kind of boring to play in the 30-40's because you don't get many new damage skills until much later. If you run a instance and there's no cleric you'll be expected to heal. They are decent at solo PvP although they work much better in a group. You need to slot Magical Accuracy and Magic Boost stones for PvP.

Gunslinger: Very strong class that's extremely easy to solo pvp with. Very easy to gear as you only need Magic Boost for both PvE and PvP in most cases. Highly mobile with high burst damage.

Aethertech: This is a tank/support magic based class. You can tank any instance in the game with it (better than gladiators, not as good as templars). In PvP, damage is low but it has a ton of AOE skills as well as very strong group support skills. It also has one of the most powerskills in the game, drillbore, which removes ALL protective buffs from a target. However, because it has low base magical accuracy a lot of Magical Accuracy is needed in pvp, so lower damage.
