I decided to make my own mining amps, but I had chipped out all my crafting skills years ago. So, I thought this would be a great opportunity to see how good repair skilling is. Also, at this time, I found out that there is no cap for being a disciple, so I decided to find a mentor and try to roll a good ME item. After a quick search, I found a mentor and hopped on the Kronin.

Something interesting came up: can i get the adj musca somehow? I like the pixie as well but the market is so flooded it would be good to get more musca. My guess would be (F) musca is really small comparatively.

You would have been born on arkadia to recieve arkadian ME or arkadia specific items. To my knowledge.

I was born on Calypso, graduated on Arkadia and got Musca. That happened 1.5+ years ago, however.

I'm not aware of any Arkadia-specific (or any-planet-specific, for what it's worth) Mentor Edition items.

You don't even have to skill on Arkadia, it's enough just to land and press the "Graduate" button.

Same away, if you born on Ark, spend all the discipleship on Ark, but pressed the grad button somewhere else - you'll get the Pixie.

And the mentor rewards are universal.

And I'll confirm this.

You even get a chance to say "heeeelll no I'm on Caly right now" when you are about to graduate.
