Which mentor should you choose?
You should choose a mentor based on what you would like to learn. For example, if you are planning to learn Strike-based attacks, Videl and Krillin might be better for you whereas Vegeta would be great for Ki-based attacks.
Another factor that can influence this would be your race. For example, if you belong to the Saiyan race, Choosing Goku or Vegeta would be a great choice. However, do not be limited to the race-based selection and try out different masters.
Unlike its prequel, Xenoverse 2 has the option to change the mentors as you like. Try out and choose the one that suits you the best.
