Mentor guide

Many newcomers are offered mentorship and answers yes before they know what a Mentor is. I will try to explain the Mentorship process here.

What is a Mentor?
A Mentor is supposed to help you getting started in the game and give you good advices to improve you skills etc. When answering yes to the Mentor invitation you will be a Disciple of he or her. You will be a disciple until you gain a certain amount of skills. You will end your disciple period when you reach on of the skill goals of your mentor. When your disciple period ends your Mentor will get a gift from MindArk. This gift is not very big so in the end the Mentor will probably not gain anything from this since he or she have probably used a lot of ammo during TP runs for you or given you gifts to help you get to that point. Some people offer everyone they meet a Mentorship and then just don't care if you succeed or not, if you will they will get the gift anyway. So before accepting a Mentor chat with him or her and try to find out if he or she is a serious one or not.

Can I get a new Mentor?
NO, and Yes. You can't kick your Mentor after you have reached 10% in one of the skills, but the Mentor can always kick you. So if you are not pleased of your Mentor you have to ask him or her to kick you if you have to much skills. But why should he kick you when it's a gift on its way.
So if you reach 200 in rifle or 60 in surveying it's to late to kick your bad Mentor.

How do I know how good Disciple I am?
Your Mentor can se your progress and will tell you. If you like to see you can press K to see your skills, to the left there is a button named Disciples, when you press that you will see your Mentor's name and under that you can press information to see what Disciple rules is used. Compare the skill demands with your actual skills.
 

Can I always become a Disciple?
No, when you have to much skills you will not be able to become a disciple

 

Good luck!
