Does anyone have tips on guild recruiting?
Lost of First Mover Advantage.
As a late guild, you already lost that advantage thus it make it even harder to grow due to the limited amount of players you can recruit from. Plus, all supposed hardcore players already part of a guild thus the difficulty for late guild to progress is extremely high.
Niche Market
You have chosen a niche market to target in, the number of WvW-focused players are extremely limited
Not the game’s focus
The game is not focus in wvw but PvE thus this further tell you how much WvW-focused players are really there.
You are now in a 5 star difficulty guild building tycoon. I personally would suggest you in gaining fame through leading general pug and through this reputation as a commander, attempt to recruit players into your guild. Of course, you can learn from some guilds by giving out false promises and brainwash others to join them.
Whatever you choose, do note that if you choose to use the evil approach, you may offend other guilds and your only option is to transfer out.
