Every mentee who subscribes moves you up the Mentor Journey. Five tiers, each with its own rewards, and nothing you have to chase.

How Tiers Work

The five tiers run in order: Apprentice, Journeyman, Adept, Sage, and Luminary. Each tier gives a one-time Crystal bonus and its own badge. Most tiers add a cosmetic Wordkeeper Lantern item for your wardrobe. Luminary, the top tier, gives a custom item that the team arranges with you directly. Open the Mentor journey card to see the full ladder, how many subscribed mentees each tier needs, and exactly what the next one gives you.
Only the Subscribed step advances your tier. Mentees who join and start writing still earn you the shared item reward. The ladder itself counts subscriptions.

Claiming Your Rewards

Rewards wait for you rather than landing silently while you’re away.
  1. Reach a tier. Your Mentor journey card shows a Claim button as soon as a tier is within reach.
  2. Claim it. The tier-up window opens and lists exactly what you received.
  3. Find your items. Crystals land in your balance. Wardrobe items go to your Wardrobe, and badges join your collection.
Nothing expires. If you reach several tiers before you next open the page, each one is still there to claim.

Your Mentor Badges

Every tier you reach earns its own badge, and they all stay in your collection. A higher tier never replaces a lower one. Your profile shows the badges you choose to feature, up to three. Pick your mentor badge there if you want it beside your hero’s name.
Reaching a tier doesn’t put the badge on your profile by itself. Open your badge picker and feature it, or nobody visiting your profile will see it.

Welcome Gifts

Send any mentee a one-time welcome gift to help them through their first battles. They receive an in-game notification with a note from you. Pick from four curated gifts: Open the Welcome gift action on any mentee row to send one.
Three of the four gifts come out of your own inventory, so check what you’re holding before you send. The Stempo Bag is the exception and costs you nothing. Each mentee can receive one welcome gift, and the gift can’t be taken back.
