If Mental is now Offline will Vulkan API take place instead Mental?

For future games Vulcan might be used, or DX12 or something else, we will all know more about that when it's announced. BF4 is over 2 years old now, you should not expect any new graphics API's being supported.

        For your Mantle issue try deleting the Mantle cache file located at:

        C:\Users\<your pc>\Documents\Battlefield 4\cache 

        Also make sure Origin and the game is started as administrator.
