I would recommend you start TWO new accounts, one for each of you. I'm not 100% on the mechanics of Elo, but if you're grouped and dropping with her (definitely a good idea, and if you can, paint your mech something eye-meltingly bright so she can find you easily) your experienced account might drag her into an Elo bracket that is way too tough for her. If you both have fresh new accounts you should be sure to drop with other newbies which should make things easier for her.

Yeah thats what I meant

Right now I'm letting her play around in my account in testing grounds since I have ~40 mechs to play with (guess its gonna be 52 tomorrow!) She hasn't wandered out into the world yet, I put a mandatory 4 hours in testing grounds requirement. (she can go drop if she wants, really, but I recommended a few hours of navigation practice and heat management practice before dropping).
