Mentor Campaign Event

[Murasaki]

Mentor Campaign Event

June 3rd ~ July 5th

Notice: This event has ended and Mentor Threads have received a modification to their ruling. Rather than Apprentices being counted by the number of posts they've made (as a set post count of 20 is not necessarily representative of a character's actual progress), it is a set level of 14 and below now.

However, you may still claim Welcome Packages and perform Mentor Training threads. See below.

4. Mentor Threads.
Mentor Threads are threads that take place between a low-leveled character (the Apprentice) and a higher-leveled character (the Mentor). Mentor Threads give an AP bonus of 1.25x AP to all participating characters and may be under any context, but they are usually threads where the Mentor teaches the Apprentice the ropes. This AP bonus does not stack with any other thread type AP bonuses. The higher of the two bonuses is applied. Threads may be reviewed by the mods occasionally to confirm whether a Mentor is actually training Apprentices. In order for a thread to qualify as a Mentor Thread, there must be at least two participants in an RP thread who qualify for the following:
- Mentor: The Mentor is considered a character whose level is 15 or higher.
- Apprentice: The Apprentice is considered a character whose level is 14 or lower.
A Mentor can teach more than one Apprentice at a time. In order to do this, all of their Apprentices must post at least as much as the Mentor in that thread in order to qualify for Mentor bonuses. Note that it is not necessary for a Mentor Thread to be labeled as one to receive the bonus, but participants are requested to label it as such to avoid confusion.

If you're a new member that's just getting started, the following links should also be fairly useful.

We of the Log Horizon RP staff are glad that the older veterans, many of which have been here for almost half a year, are getting along well with the many Adventurers who are signing up every day. But perhaps there may be a few others who might be too shy to join in on the fun? With the release of this event, we would like to encourage everyone to get to know each other and make new friends. Because who knows? That new Adventurer that just signed up may turn out to be one of your greatest companions later on in the RP!

Participating in the Mentor Campaign is simple: You RP threads containing at least one RP Mentor and at least one RP Apprentice. What's more, RP Apprentices may have as many RP Mentors as possible and vice-versa.
- If your post count is higher than 20, you qualify as an RP Mentor. If it is 20 or under, you qualify as an RP Apprentice. Participants will receive 1.25x AP from this type of thread. Note this bonus will not stack with guild bonuses.
- These threads may be anything - simple training, socials, crafting, even event threads like the current Spring Cleaning event. All you need to do is make sure that the thread contains at least 1 RP Mentor, 1 RP Apprentice, and at least 5 posts from each participant. Then submit it to this thread when completed.

The first time an RP Apprentice or Mentor completes a Mentor Thread, they will receive the following Welcome Package. Post in this thread to claim it:

- 1 Level 5 Windsor Antiqua weapon, prefix enchant: Fledgling / suffix enchant: Adventurer
- 2 Subclass Change Tickets: Allows you to change your subclass to a different one. Any AP you've already earned on your current subclass will be saved in case you should return to it later. You may use this item in the Market Center.
- 5 Skill Change Tickets: Allows you to change out a Main class skill for another one of the same tier. You may use this item in the Market Center.
- 350 Gold

Welcome Packages already claimed by:

Mab
Scoria (donated to Mab)

In addition, all submitted threads that meet the requirement can receive some of the following prizes for all involved parties:

- AP Potion (5): A potion that immediately increases the user's AP by 5. Be sure to specify which class it's used for when you use it in the Market Center.
- Enchant Scroll [Apprentice]
- Enchant Scroll [Aspiring]
- Enchant Scroll [Student]
- Enchant Scroll [Teacher]
- Summer Gachapon (1): A mysterious sphere that contains an unknown item. Open it to find out what's inside!

So long as Mentors and Apprentices manage to accomplish Mentor Threads, they will continue to receive rewards through this event's duration. So what are you waiting for? Get to know other Adventurers today!

[Haneroze]

Question! Question!

Does threads that fit the requirements but that started before today can be submitted for this event? Or must they all be created started today in order to qualify for the event?

[Murasaki]

Starting today.

Otherwise we'll have a ton of Grandfather Clause issues since older threads may or may not already be claimed for AP.

[Tobin]

Bugger, I had a thread start a couple of hours before this announcement that would have been perfect. XD Oh well.

[Bast]

Just making sure you stay Apprentice even if you go over 20 posts as it was from when the event started that the post amount counted or am I wrong and it is from when each quest starts to determine if you are a mentor or an apprentice. Just checking if it changes or if I'm as I think an apprentice for this event as I had 18 posts when this event started but now on 20 and would if starting one end up above 20.

[Murasaki]

If you have 20 or fewer posts prior to my post 16 hours ago, you can apply as RP Apprentice for the duration of the event. For people who were RP Apprentices that managed to get more than 20 posts like you will soon, you may decide to be an RP Mentor OR RP Apprentice for any Mentor thread. Consider it a flexible position to thank active newbies.

[Scoria]

Mab and Scoria

log-horizon.proboards.com/thread/2264/northern-wind-sun-closed-mentor

Submitting. Give my welcome package to Mab please.

[Murasaki]

Confirmed.

Scoria receives:

Student Enchant Scroll: Rank D enchant. Enchants on any equip. A scroll that can be enchanted onto an existing piece of equipment by using it in the Market Center. The scroll is consumed upon use, adding the suffix enchant "Student" to the equipment's name and applying the following effects:
- If you are the lowest leveled party member (non-solo), increases maximum HP by 10%.
- If you are the highest leveled party member (non-solo), decreases physical defense by 1.

Mab receives:

- 2 Welcome Packages
- Summer Gachapon (1): A mysterious sphere that contains an unknown item. Open it to find out what's inside!

[Mab]

Raises hand... Opens mystery item!

[Verin]

I was wondering and I bet others are also, say if you own two characters and one is an RP Mentor and the other is an RP Apprentice are you allowed to make a Mentor thread between the two or would this be considered unfair? I wanted to make sure because I was thinking of making a second character and just doing an Mentor thread between the two. 

[Murasaki]

Pretty much that will never be the case as far as event threads go. Any time we mean two characters RPing together, we mean two characters not controlled by the same RPer. Otherwise it would essentially be a solo thread.

Mab's gachapon was also opened.

Cicero's Sunscreen Lotion - Lv10 item. Ever wonder why Cicero's skin is so pale? Wonder how an Alv with a long lifespan takes care of their skin? Put this cream and practically reflect all those harmful rays. Goes into cooldown 1 hour after it is used. When used, raise the character's light resistance by 3 levels for 5 minutes.

[Verin]

Thank you I wanted to make sure of this before I did anything stupid and get in trouble with you guys.

This event has concluded. Participants will get their rewards shortly. If you have a Mentor Thread made on 7/5 and earlier but did not post it here, you may still submit the thread here for full rewards.

Any future Mentor Threads will still give out bonus AP and Welcome Packages, but will be ineligible for the bonus rewards.
