Post subject:  Mentor points

OK, I log in briefly my long aged dead char just to keep him from deleting(not much time to play at all lately unfortunately), so I get this message.

Welcome to Shattered Kingdoms.

On the Shores of Death
A thick, black cloud of smoke hangs on the air here, impeding
and confusing your senses. North and west of you is a massive river,
slow moving, murky, and black. From the dark sands at your feet, a narrow
bridge, looking quite fragile, rises up and passes over the waters,
disappearing beyond the shore into the hazy mists. To the south and
east, what seems to be a desert of blackened sands stretch forth,
disappearing into the cloudy horizon.
Obvious exits: e s ne se
Your persistent mentorship has provided you with new insight!

OK, what is the idea with that? My char had earned several mentor points during his lifetime, but thing is he has been age dead for like 6 months now. So obviously I haven't mentored anyone during these 6 months.

Have the requirements for mentor points gone down?

Is this a bug in the code?

Or am I just this elite? :P

If only you could give ATT points to other players. :P

It's bugged, and you got my mentor points. QQ

No really, I'm not sure if the system is working quite right. I have done much more mentoring on this character than I did with my last before he got his first mentor point, and I have still seen nothing. There was even one month where I mentored three different swashies with as many skills as I could. I'm still not quite sure on the qualifications, but simply by comparing characters, this one is getting the shaft.

I'm pretty sure it takes a lot more than just giving someone skill/spell lessons. That's likely part of it, but if I had to guess, I'd say it's the least part of it.

Dunno if it works. I have done alot of mentoring with Elriorith and I have received 0 attr points for that. Dunno the specifications though. I could be missing something.

I don't think it is working. When I was playing Ace, some months I would do little training and I would get a pt and other months where I would train a dozen people and nothing.

Clearly there is an error in the calculation if characters that have not been mentoring in 6 reboots are getting points.

Hopefully this explains why my guy hasn't gotten any points since getting them two weeks(edit: months) in a row just after hitting mentor (8 months ago)

That indeed does make me curious about how this system works.

It doesn't mean anything is wrong. You can only earn an attribute point after a monthly reboot. Because I did the reboot this time after only 3 weeks instead of 4 weeks, I reduced the number of mentor points required by that ratio. Therefore, Dark-Avenger's new attribute point is explained by the fact that he was at least 3/4 of the way to earning one when he last played his character.

I always wanted you to be able to spend mentor points to max out your stats after you age.

You never could. I think Ghent has four or five points left over.
