Beginners Guide : Teachers

Players (and some NPCs) have the ability to teach other players a task. Depending on the teaching skill, and how skilled they are, they will help you learn faster. In some cases a great and knowledgeable teacher can help you learn FAST.

Finding a teacher can be tough though, especially a good one. You're asking someone to sit by your side, do nothing, help you learn, and spend there valuable time for your benefit. You can pay someone to help you out, have a Castle mate or Guild mate, or just ask a friend. Don't be "that guy" and beg for teaching. No one will help you. I get taught more often by just working on it alone and having someone come in and strike up a conversation.

Some skills it is well worth paying for a teacher if you can. Smithing for example: the raw material requirements are so high that you can save a ton of time and gold by not going it alone. It may be worth paying someone 100 suns for a few hours of training. Just make sure to have all your raw materials ready.

Get used to going it alone though. Most people don't want to sit around for hours on end while you mindlessly spam through woodworking.
