Mentor Guilds for EU and US realms announced
Back in July, Blizzard announced the Guild Mentoring Program, aimed at easing the process of connecting new players to guilds. Now, both the European and US servers have their initial mentoring guilds selected. These guilds will have their names temporarily changed to make finding them easier for new players, becoming Blizzard Mentor Horde or Blizzard Mentor Alliance for the duration of the program. The Mentoring program is only available on the selected servers for now, so if you feel you're in need of mentor services, check the lists to see if they're available on your server. The program is specifically tailored for new and low level players to get an introduction to what being in a guild is all about, so if that's you, definitely check it out. It's open warfare between Alliance and Horde in Mists of Pandaria, World of Warcraft's next expansion. Jump into five new levels with new talents and class mechanics, try the new monk class, and create a pandaren character to ally with either Horde or Alliance. Look for expansion basics in our Mists FAQ, or dig into our spring press event coverage for more details!
Blizzard introduces guild mentoring program
Blizzard today introduced the guild mentoring program, a new initiative aimed at getting new players involved with a guild. On select realms, one guild of each faction will become a mentoring guild, getting its name changed temporarily and helping usher in new players to all the fun that is WoW guilds. The program isn't very widespread, existing only on 14 US realms and 13 EU realms at the moment. There are lots of details of the program that are important to those looking to get involved in this. Overall, this should be a nice way for Blizzard to not only encourage new players to find a virtual home, but for the veterans of us to extend a helping hand in a very warm, friendly, and Blizzard-backed way. It'll be interesting to see what effect this has in the long term! Check out the full blue post, including a list of EU and US realms, and an FAQ, after the break.
