Hello Mpy and boyfriend! I think The Cry of Winter [ICE] is the guild for you. You may be aware of this but if you are not I hope it helps make your decision in looking for a guild a bit easier. The server you are based on only matters if you want to participate in World versus World content. Anything PvP and PvE related will not be limited by the server you are based on. However, if WvW is content you’d like to participate in [ICE] has members based on Jade Quarry as well as other servers. I am based on the JQ server and enjoy WvW, so if that is something you’d like to learn about or try from time to time let me know! Below is some further information about [ICE] that is written by its leader. If you have any questions feel free to message or send an in-game mail. You and your boyfriend can even join [ICE] and put us on trial to see if we meet your needs. If not then I wish you the best of luck in finding a guild and lots of fun in Tyria!
Once upon a time (ok, it was actually about a week ago), a guild was founded. This guild had a vision – a vision of an epic, thoroughly superb, tight-knit community that did so many fun things together that other guilds were envious of the huge smiles on the faces of this guild’s members.
[ICE] is not your average guild. First off, we’re small. We like it that way. Our ideal size is around 30 to 50 members. We don’t want to be a huge zerg guild with hundreds and hundreds of members, where you just get lost in the crowd when you join and you can’t remember anybody’s name.
Second, we go far beyond merely being “active”. We built this guild to be “interactive”. As an icicle, you don’t just log on and see a roster full of people that are doing their own thing, that you never speak to or interact with. Instead, you log on and you see a community, friends, hell even a second family. You see the friendliest bunch of people that GW2 has to offer.
And best of all, you actually do things with us! What kind of things? Here’s a list, because everybody loves easy-to-digest, bulleted lists:
Weekly missions
Dungeon and fractal nights
RAIDS
Events like asura ball, hide ’n seek, jumping puzzle races, and more. All with in-game and out-of-game prizes!
An active (and stylish) website, with forum titles, badges, and even a currency system you can use to purchase in-game and out-of-game items with!
An in-depth and entertaining progression system for guild ranks
Oh, so much more!
Now, we are a brand new guild. As such, we’re still getting on our feet, and all the awesome events we’re going to have are in the planning stages still. But they’re on the way, and we’ll be having our first organized community event in the very near future, and it’s gonna be amazeballs!
Casual PvE
We are a PvE focused guild. We are definitely going to be charging straight into raids with the launch of Heart of Thorns. However, we are not hardcore about it. We strive to be exceptional players, and all raiders will know the fights, know their classes and builds, etc. Our goal is to have the hardcore quality, without having the hardcore raiding schedule or crazy shouting raid leader.
As for PvP, a lot of our members, myself included, do participate in PvP all the time. We do both sPvP and WvW, and if enough members wish it, then we’ll have organized teams for PvP. But for now, we decided just to focus on PvE as a guild.
No Rep Requirement
Here at [ICE], we think rep requirements are stupid. We want you to want to rep us, not just force you to. After all, this is a game, and we play it to have fun. So if you’re having fun with a different set of friends, then good for you! Besides, the changes coming in Heart of Thorns are doing away with any need to rep a guild anyways.
