Mentor System

Sep 21, 2007 Stormshift link
I've looked around and I can't seem to find any information on the Mentor System.

My friend is about to join the game so I want to mentor him, yet I have no idea how the system works, or what exactly to do with it.

Any tips or assistance would be appreciated :D

I swiped this off the wiki ( http://www.vo-wiki.com/wiki/ ):

/mentor
Displays a list of mentor commands when typed out; use it for player help. If you want to see a mentor command, check with this command.

/mentor invite
Asks another player to be your mentor. Use this command if you feel you need help that cannot be given by the game's tutorial or by written documentation.

/mentor accept
Accepts another player's offer to be your student. Requires you to have been invited by the player.

/mentor decline
Declines another player's offer to be your student. Requires you to have been invited by the other player

/mentor rate [good/bad]
Rates your mentor. Usable only after you have gained a license after you acquired your mentor. Only takes "good" or "bad" as input.

As a successful mentor, you can earn a mentor badge and rewards: http://www.vo-wiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Badges

Be careful. Make sure your friend uses his mentor points early on. You would be surprised at how fast you can hit the "too high to be mentored" state.

I know I was when I helped a couple of newbs only to find out I had "helped" too much to get anything from it.

The "too high to be mentored" state shows up when you level up in-game... If someone you are trying to mentor ever gives this excuse tell them to log off/on and things will work like new ;)

Just make sure you're friend hasn't given away his 3 mentor points when you get to him and you should be fine... Also, did you ever consider looking for a mentor to teach you how to be a mentor?
