Mentor/Protege Changes

Written by: Galleus, the Sky Sovereign

Addressed to: Everyone


I've made a number of changes to the way the Mentor/Protege relationship
affects players.


-All mentor bonus credits will now be Bound credits.

-Mentors will see when their proteges arrive in the realm, and proteges
will see when their mentors arrive in the realm.

-Proteges may learn up to 20 lessons at a time when learning skills from
their mentors, rather than the standard 15 lesson maximum.

-Mentors will gain double the effect from teaching to their skills by
teaching their own proteges.

-Mentors may also increase their effective skill rank above the
Transcendent level, but only by teaching their proteges while the mentor
is themself Transcendent in the skill. This will provide some level of
protection against Divine disfavors affecting the skill in question, and
will also give a minor benefit to some skills that increase in efficacy
at higher skillrank.

-Proteges may take on a new mentor at any time, once per year. There are
no longer restrictions on when you may gain a mentor, however, only your
first mentor will ever gain bonus credits from your purchases.

-Mentors may reject their proteges with REJECT PROTEGE <name> <reason>.

-Mentors and proteges, as well as their hunting party, will receive a 5%
bonus to experience gained if the mentor and the protege are in the same
Web and the same room while hunting.
