A brief search didn't already find a thread for this, so....
It looks like those of us with 200 in a stat with the special designation will be able to mentor players not at the level cap in exchange for making waves. This looks promising! any thoughts?
also, is it just me, or is content moving at a beautifully fast pace in the last while?

*Whoa*, there. I'm going to watch the data on this one rather carefully: that's why there a warning note on it. It may end up that any POSI can tutor up to 100, and any specialist can tutor higher levels. It may be that the increase ends up being a formula rather than a flat number (this was the original design, but newbies find it difficult enough to understand change points). And it's quite likely patronage will have other advantages,especially as new tech comes online later next year.But I would much rather leave room to boost than room to nerf, and in a little while I'll see exactly how it's being used and abused.

Haha, I just finished single mindedly grinding my dangerous to 200 to become a shattering force. This after my last stats halving to the 30s at the end of November (my shadowy is still like 60-70). I can't wait to tutor delicious friends my signature buff fighting moves. Like the Oblivion Punch (I hit you over the head with a bottle of oblivion which somehow makes you more buff :P).

Whilst it's not out yet, I already like this action far better than the other current way of spending a free evening, which in its current form is largely useless.

It will, in fact, be a way to gain Making Waves according to the storylet header. I guess you spend a free evening with another player so they get stat and you get MW? There's probably some deeper intricacies with relationship qualities and stuff going on though. I dunno, I'm just guessing.

I would gladly submit my charact... I mean, myself, to some tutorage. The pain of grinding Making Waves is known to me, and I'd like to help those who are grinding MW too out there. Having your stats boosted in the process doesn't hurt too.

Oh, that's very interesting. I wonder if this is going to be a continuation of the Mysterious Benefactor storyline? It does end with the line "perhaps some day you'll have a protege of your own"...

Wow. I would like to see you Oblivion punch sometime.

You can't actually teach anyone anything if their stat is more than 100; the game doesn't actually tell you that until you've already adopted them as a protegé! welp
