Character Name(s):
Marine - Luke McKendrick
Xeno - LM
Why do you want to become a Mentor?:
I had my last spiel about this before so I’ll keep it short here. Mentor definitely holds a special place in my heart, and I would love to be able to use my two years of experience in CM to help other with learning the game. Mentors are some of the kindest and most considerate people I have ever had the privilege to know in CM, and I would be honored to become one.
What gameplay areas do you know and which areas are you strong and weak in?:
A bit has changed since my last application of course, specifically in xeno but for good measure I’ll go over marine anyways.
For marine I would say Engineering, Medical, Surgery, Combat, Command, and the vast majority of other things are clear for me. For weak areas I would say Intel, Research, Chemistry, and a solid bit of ordnance. Now that’s not to say I can’t do decent in those roles its just I may need the wiki open or something.
Now for xeno I took your advice and spent more time with xeno especially in the area I believed I lacked the most, that being combat. I would say I am weak in Castes like burrower, ravenger, and queen, with queen however I understand all of its features just not how to execute them as well as others. My strong suits are drone/hivelord, and after that defender/warrior as well as sentinel/spitter.
How often are to able to play CM?:
10-14

Anything else you’d like to add?:
Second times the charm, that’s what they say isn’t it? But to be serious I understand completely why my last application was denied. I definitely needed more xeno hours but the other big part was I took that hiatus from CM. I had some personal things going on but on top of that I think I was just super burnt out from playing CM. While I love CM, too much of anything is bad, and I just had really bad timing for when my burn out happened. Going back to my last application I did mean what I said completely, mentor means a lot to me and if I am able to become a mentor I swear to you I will be the best I can be. It is not a role I will take lightly in the slightest and I hope that shows clearly with my actions in the community and my actions in game.
