Guild Wars 2

NOTICE: Post under construction

Introduction
Alright Recruit, let me give you a run down on how things are done in the MR. You will be part of a small task force with the objective of sabotage, raids, and reinforcing our front lines when needed. This objective will evolve as we get more FNGs, but for now, thinking small will do.

In case you have not noticed, I’m talking about World Versus World. Our operating hours are 10am-4pm and 9pm-12am Eastern US time on week days. Weekends tend become unpredictable, but there is a high chance someone will be active then. Our base of operations is located in Eredon Terrace. If you cannot participate during any of these hours, don’t bother signing up.

A minimal once a week you’ll be active. If you are MIA for a week you will be notified of potential discharge and given another two weeks to reply. Failure to comply to the message sent will result in a less-than-honorable discharge. Should something come up or if life pulls a fast one on you, let our Guild Master know to avoid this.

As far as discipline is concerned we would be best describe as somewhere in the middle. We’re not going to go drill sergeant on you so long as you follow our rules and take the required basic training. Advanced training can give you more know-how and is not mandatory. However, we still have some kinks to work out. We’ll notify you as soon as advance training becomes available.

Although I did mention we’re primarily a WvW group, we do more than WvW. We may do dungeons, Craft items for one another, and more. Think of PvE as shore leave.

Initiation
All accepted players will start off as a Recruit. At this rank you are not officially part of the guild yet. After you’ve passed Boot Camp you will be promoted to Private.

In Boot Camp a Drill Sergeant will instruct you. You will have at least one player with you. They may also be a recruit, or they may be an experienced member filling up empty slots.

Here are some tips for Boot Camp.

1) Once your submission is accepted you will be notified. Once you are online at the same time your assigned Drill Sergeant is, you will start Boot Camp. Avoiding Boot Camp will result in termination of your submission. You can apply again, but you only get two more chances. Plus, your Drill Sergeant WILL get on you for that. should you have to log off, be sure to notify your Drill Sergeant. You can continue Boot Camp next time you are both on.

2) Boot Camp may seem harsh, but that doesn’t mean our Guild is hardcore. We don’t play to win, we play to have fun in a video game. It’s just that this kind of fun is military-like. Doesn’t mean we don’t goof off every so often or do fun events other than WvW. Think of anything not in WvW as shore leave.

3) Just because you may be level 80 with the best gear in the game doesn’t mean we’ll go soft on you. Boot Camp is used to weed out those who will hinder us in the long run. It’s not perfect, but it gets the job done. Everyone is treated equally as far as qualification is concerned. The same may not be true for your Drill Sergeant treats you however…

4) EVERYTHING you learn in boot camp will be used on the field. Don’t just go through thinking you can forget it later on. You may get called out on it and reviewed by your superiors. Even worse, you may have to go through Boot Camp all over again.

5) There’s only one rule to pass Boot Camp. Do as your Drill Sergeant says. Failure to comply will disqualify you.

Boot Camp Courses:

Obedience Training
All you have to do is what your Drill Sergeant says. Your Drill Sergeant will go over how your Training will be done and probably make you do ridiculous things. Just do as Sarge says.

Formation Training
Here, you will be accompanied with other players. They may be recruits like you, or already experienced members called in to fill spots. You will be taught different movement formations and their effectiveness on the field. You and your group will follow the Drill Sergeant around a certain area in whatever formation he/she calls out. Keep in formation and you will pass. (Due to the Guild just starting up, I may need to gather players outside the Guild to participate. If we cannot obtain enough players to complete this training you will skip it and come back to it later.)

Scouting
This is the first course where you will actually enter WvW. However, you are not here for combat. You will be tasked to go to an enemy base, spot enemies, upgrades, and any siege weapons that you can see. You must also get back to your Drill Sergeant ALIVE! You may NOT use any waypoints. If you die, you will be assigned a different target. Once you return, you will travel with your Drill Sergeant to the target location to confirm your findings.

Sounds interesting! Sign me up for the Human Ranger . For the profession slot, I guess I’ll take the Chef position. Also you might want to swap out “Huntsman” for “Thief”, because you left it out x.x

Alright, just need six more ppl. I’ll let you know ingame if we end up with eight ppl. and thx 4 pointing that out.

Hi, I messaged you on Skype.

I’d like to join the group, pretty open to any race/class, but I’ll stick with a Norn – Guardian/Weaponsmith/Armorsmith for now. Let me know if there’s anything else I can do!

P.S. I’ll be able to play on the 9-12AM EST window on weekdays.

Alright, you’ve Been added. I’ll message you either in-game or in skype when we get the remaining 4 players.

While we wait for the remaining players, any suggestions for this guild name everyoe? Maybe something relating to a small adaptive strike team?

Please add me in game. I am willing to play on any server and as well as with any class. None of my RL friends play at the moment, and looking for a fun group to level up with!

If Possible I’d like to roll Sylvari – elemtalist – Tailor.

As all three of those are in need. I added you on Skype.

I’ll add u then. Make sure you go to Eradon Terrace.

You are able to get at some point in the times I specified right?

UPDATE! Sorry, I may have mixed up my Skype name. You may have requested a random person. I say so cause I got on and have no contact request.

Send the request to Passafist666/Walter Stone

Sorry for any mix ups. All who have posted their skype names I have sent requests.

Lmao.

Anyway, any ideas on guild name? Here’s a few somewhat related to the guild theme to ger the ball rolling:

Tactical Assault Group (TAG)
Special Response Team (SRT)
SWAT (SWAT)

How about the Myst Rangers? (MR)

I’ll think of more once my mind wakes up.

Also Konid, did you get my skype contact request?

Yes, I should be on your contacts list now. I like ‘Myst Rangers’ btw

I was thinking something more military-like in name. Though I still want the Guild to have a good balance of organization, and silliness. Its hard to find people with a good balance of those.

I thought Myst Rangers because well, what I’m planning on us doing is kinda like the US Army Rangers. Quick Shock troops that adapt to the battlefield.

should this work out, my plans for the future are to steadily increase our number. No, not by sending random Invites to people. Otherwise we’ll end up like the million+ guilds who have a ton of members but hardly any really do anything. A majority of people think a good guild is the one with the most players.

Even then, I wouldn’t want to increase our numbers until We are level 30 and faring well in WvW. for now I plan for us to go through a few stages.

1) Gather the 8 members <——Obviously, we’re here.

2) Exploring maps and leveling up enough to regroup.

3) Gather as much map completion possible before we hit level 30

4) At level 30 we’ll do a check on gear and see if we can improve it. (This will also happen before hand as well, this will just be the big one).

5) We test out our group in WvW

6) Review results and decide If we should get rid of players should they be uncooperative. If the group seems to be functioning well, we will recruit another 8 members to serve as a Beta Squad and repeat with them. If this group does not function well, we will go through training.

7) Repeat. Add/remove members as needed.

I think that’s a good plan. We should make sure that everyone’s playing times overlap, and also we should probably set deadlines on certain milestones. Nothing too crazy/strict, but we don’t 6/8 people to be at stage 4 and 2 others to still be level 15ish or whatever.

like what do you mean?

For instance, impose the deadline that 2 weeks from now, everyone should be level 30.

ah, that sounds good.

don’t bump, mods consider it spamming. just give a suggestion for the guild and itll b fine.

so, we need 3 more ppl. konid, any thoughts on thow this guild will go?

Since your a char that already takes out the needed races. Last two slots are any race. Though I can agree I went a bit far with that part. As for the class thing, this small guild is to function as an 8 man team. when we get these 8 people we will do our thing then recruit more. The next group will only have to have a different profession and the rest can be the same. The point is for each section to be adaptive.

Though I have no problem with getting a head start. if all the solo play go ahead we can help the other players once they start. Well talk ingame.

I’m switching to a Sylvari Mesmer, so we need a Norn.
