The Mentor System is designed to help new Players (Recruit) gain rewards, extra experience and Gems, through the assist of older Players (Mentor) in The Horus Heresy: Legions.
Any Player at level 25 or above is eligible to become a Mentor, and only Players below level 25 can become Recruits. Each Mentor can have up to three Recruits at a time.
Mentors, through the Mentor Chat, will be able to talk with all Recruits (and they with each other), view their progression and choose to give them Gems (up to 1,000 max). All Players in this Chat, can share Deck builds and match replays.
To become a Mentor, you can click in any Player Avatar and send an offer for mentoring (must be below level 25, and without one already), or send the offer by clicking in the "looking for Mentor" option in the Global Chat. As stated, one can only have three Recruits max at any given time, but there's no limit to how many Players a Mentor can send an offer to.
To gain a Mentor, a Recruit can click in any Player Avatar and ask for mentorship (must be above level 25, and without the max Recruits reached), or (in the Mentor Chat) send a "looking for Mentor" request in the Global Chat. Up to five mentorship requests can be active at a time (you can choose one or remove it to make space for another), and while a Player can only have 1 Mentor in any given moment, there's no limit to how many ones it becomes a Recruit for (if you lose it, you can receive a mentorship over and over, till reaching level 25).
When a Recruit reaches certain milestones, the Mentor earns a reward. When they reach level 25, they ‘graduate’ and can go on to become Mentors, while their Mentor can take on a new Recruit.
The milestones for Recruits are:
- Unlock the epic boss in a single-player campaign.
- Win 5 event games in a single event run.
- Gain a ranked game above 1,000 rating.
- Login 7 consecutive days.
- Reach level 25.
The only way (currently) to remove a Mentor or a Recruit (for whatever reason one might have), is if the other Player hasn't been active in the game for 7 days, and an option to do so will appear in the Mentor Chat.
Perks[]
Recruits will receive a 20% experience boost while under a Mentor. On the other hand, Mentors will receive a gold reward whenever one of their Recruits completes a milestone (around 30 Gold each).
As an encouragement, Mentors can make gifts of 100 gems to a Recruit, up to a maximum of 1,000 gems over the lifetime of each Recruit.
When a Recruit reaches level 25, with all milestones completed, and graduate, both the Recruit and Mentor will receive a reward Crate.
Notes[]
By "technicality", a Player might be of a level higher than 25 and still be a Recruit. This is for the fact that the Mentor or Recruit need to click the "Graduate" button after reaching it. While you won't get the experience boost anymore, at least it leaves you time to complete any milestone you might have miss.
If your Mentor/Recruit is only active in a way that don't help you (only logs in the game, but don't do anything), then try to reach the game Support (this LINK), and tell them about your problem (while not certain, they might remove that Player for you).
