Silkroad Online Forums

Well, only seven hours until the big Legend I update comes. I've seen a lot of mixed feelings on it over the two years i've been playing but it's finally coming.
So, I have a request. I've got a guide on the guardian system in the guides section, but since GD is frequented more, I think i'd have much better luck looking here for volunteers. Of course, to be a guardian you have to be level 60+ and you have to pay a small fee. Please only volunteer if you wish to be a guardian, and stay active and keep up with your lowbies. I want to be updated at least once a week on the progress of your guardian houses so I can try to keep a general track record of what happens as the apprentice levels under your supervision. If you're interested in helping me and Nokturne out in gathering information, please take a look here and read over it, and pick something you'd like to test. if you are unsure, just take a peek at the list below. If there is something else you would like to see covered, leave your suggestions here so we can try to figure things out.
Also, if you plan on being an apprentice, i'd like to hear any input or comments about the benefits you receive as well.

What we mainly need people to help with is the following:

-Do you get more points if someone is your apprentice longer?
For example, if one apprentice enters at level 1, and another enters at level 20, do you get more points when the level 1 graduates than the level 20?
-How many points do you get per graduated apprentice's rating?
What points to do get for 'Very Satisfied/Satisfied/Fair/Unsatisfactory/Very Unsatisfactory'? Hopefully none of you will get a bad rating, though.
-Are there any bugs/exploits?
I trust that nobody will abuse the system, but it's better to know the good and bad bugs as soon as possible.
-Do you get more points depending on apprentice race?
Do Euro chars give you more points than Chinese or is it equal?
-Do the cumulative/accumulative buff descriptions match the way they function ingame?
-What exactly are the benefits for Guardian Apprentices (level 40-59)?
To become a Guardian Apprentice, do you have to stay in the guardian house after level 40 and just not graduate?
-How much of a level aid are the buffs for the apprentices?
Do the extra percentages make a big difference in how fast you reach 40, and do they effect SP farming?

No flames needed, but I didn't reach 60 on Greece in time for the update, so while i'm working towards it, anyone who is willing to help compile information is welcome to send me a PM with what they know, or post it here for the quickest update to my guide. All help will be credited.

Who wants to be my apprentice? ^0^

Okay, that too. Look for apprentices her as well, if you wish

1 thing...i thought only chinese chars could use this system

You have to be Chinese to be a guardian, but you can be a European apprentice.

oh, thanx for clearing that up

-Do you get more points if someone is your apprentice longer?
Yes

For example, if one apprentice enters at level 1, and another enters at level 20, do you get more points when the level 1 graduates than the level 20?
40 points are possible for each apprentice. If you join at level 1 and graduate at level 40 you get all points possible. If you join at level 5, you get 35 points. 40 - 5 = 35. Get how it works?

-How many points do you get per graduated apprentice's rating?
not sure what you mean by this.. Do mean what the apprentice rates you at as a guardian?

What points to do get for 'Very Satisfied/Satisfied/Fair/Unsatisfactory/Very Unsatisfactory'? Hopefully none of you will get a bad rating, though.
the site doesnt say exactly how much, just that you lose some points from the possible maximum.

-Are there any bugs/exploits?
I trust that nobody will abuse the system, but it's better to know the good and bad bugs as soon as possible.

-Do you get more points depending on apprentice race?
Do Euro chars give you more points than Chinese or is it equal?
equal

-Do the cumulative/accumulative buff descriptions match the way they function ingame?

-What exactly are the benefits for Guardian Apprentices (level 40-59)?
To become a Guardian Apprentice, do you have to stay in the guardian house after level 40 and just not graduate?
Guardian apprentice refers to the level of the guardian, not the apprentice. There are three levels of apprentice and three levels of guardian.

-How much of a level aid are the buffs for the apprentices?
He recieves the benefit at graduation. He gets the equivalent of half the XP need for level 40 according to SRO.net.

Do the extra percentages make a big difference in how fast you reach 40, and do they effect SP farming?
