Why do you want to become a Mentor?:
Ever since I joined this server, I’ve been fascinated by the mechanics and gameplay elements, and after all this time, I think I’ve finally mastered most of them. Therefore, I want to help others understand the game as well as I can so everyone can have a jolly old time playing. Also, I find it extremely fun to show people the things I know and what I’m passionate about; it just makes me happy.
What gameplay areas do you know and which areas are you strong and weak in?:
My strongest is definitely medical. As you can see from my playtimes, I am a very experienced medic and doctor player, as well as a good researcher. I can make most of the chem combos from memory (like IA MB KD, etc.), and I can provide quick surgery with disarm bypasses and such.
My second strongest is probably CIC and Engineering. Despite only having a few hours in Combat Tech, I regularly help out as MT in the FOB if I can. And in CIC, I am well versed with the equipment and the duties of an XO/SO. (Loading OBs, firing them, and delivering supplies)
And lastly, MP. Despite not having a lot of MP hours, I’m well aware of marine law and how it works, what’s illegal, and what’s not. This is mostly because I play CL and CC a lot, and I tend to just barely not break the law or use loopholes if possible. (like the sneaky WY man i am)
Now for my weaknesses… The two things I have never actually played but I’m interested in are OT and GP. I think I can figure OT out, since I’m already a good research player, but for GP I have only played it a few times on my private server only to test it out and have a feel for it. I feel like it’s just something I wouldn’t want to play anyway, so I don’t bother with it, but I understand that a mentor should have absolute knowledge of mostly everything in the game.
My true weakness… is being a marine player. I have only a few xeno hours, most of them being support, which I enjoy playing… but the overall “being a xeno” thing is not for me. Despite this, I know a lot about the abilities and how to play as one, mostly because I have to kill them 90% of the time, and like a wise man once said, “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
How often are to able to play CM?:
9-10 hours, depending on the day

Anything else you’d like to add?:
Thanks for reading!!
I am aware of the fact that SEA has to be HRP at all times, and I have a history of LRP behavior, but I think I’ve changed for the better in the couple of months since my last note, and I think a lot of people can vouch for me on this one!
If you have any questions, either DM me on Discord directly or send it here! Thanks again!
