Guild Wars 2

Hey guys, I’m fairly new to Guild Wars 2 (and the Guild Wars universe in general) I’ve had the game and been exploring around for quite some time and know the basics of the game but am not really sure how to get involved in the larger scheme of things. I joined a guild when I first started because someone was simply helpful but I haven’t had contact with anyone since. Generally I’m looking for a casual guild, I primarily like to simply explore and do PvE content, but am more than willing to be active in a guild, help where I can, do dungeons, raids, PvP, and etc… (Just have no idea where to begin with that).

I currently have two characters in game (my second I just created today though)

My primary character is Acheron Icarus
Race: Sylvari
Profession: Mesmer
Level: 32

My secondary character is Chrysaor Icarus
Race: Charr
Profession: Necromancer
Level: 5

I thoroughly enjoy the game but don’t know a lot about gear, advanced stats, and really how to “know” what I’m doing. Thanks guys!

(I am on the Maguuma Server and have TeamSpeak3 and Ventrilo for guild speaking clients)

Hi Acheron

the problem first, we are on Far Shiverpeaks EU and use the timezone GMT +1 but if you don’t mind that, we are recruiting new members.

My guild is called Technical Engineers and we are doing dungeon now (and for sure when we have enough member we do even more dungeon).

check us out! recruitment post and website
for invitation or information send me a PM in-game or forum

sincerely Troopa

Hey Troopa, the guild sounds great…
Concerning time zones I am Central Time Zone GMT -5 (so if we can make it happen I’m more than willing)

Concerning FarShiverpeaks EU is that a different server then, and how exactly would that work? I can send you a PM in game for more info. But Technical Engineers sounds exactly like the guild I’m looking for: small, dedicated, ambitious, willing to help each other become skilled players.

Thanks for the offer.

Hi Acheron

If someone is on a different server than you, he can guest your world for one login session. North American server cannot guesting European server and vice versa. To change a home world permanently you have 2 choices. 1st; delete all your characters and select a new home world by creating a new character (not recommended!) 2nd; you can buy about 500-1800 gems (with real or in-game currency) and change with all your characters, gear and money etc. more information

Both method are really hard to get unless you will pay real money.
with the fact that 6 hours are between you and me to play together, i think this will not work well.
it’s too bad but finally up to you to decide. Maybe you will find an equivalent guild on your home world or on another NA server (guesting will be enabled between 2 NA server)

good luck
sincerely Troopa

Hello Acheron,
I have a small guild. We have been around since Jan 2013. The name is Brain Eaters inc [luv] slightly zombie themed. Luv is kind of random, it was the first thing to pop in my head at the time.
Any ways right now all the things we do are casual. I post events on the calendar usually tpvp or dungeons or some thing pve related. We also do stuff with our alliance guild. Usually that would consist of world vs.world, map stuff, or bounty stuff.
There is a website link below for you to check out if you want.
We currently use Raid call for the voice chat.
It would be nice to have you. I like your post.
Maybe I will see you in game

oh yes, and we are on dragonbrand. It is an NA server, so we can do stuff together just not map type stuff without guesting. Also we have no other Maguuma people & all our resources (influence etc) are on dragonbrand just so you know.
k thx!
happy hunting!

Ok Troopa, I didn’t realize that it was fairly difficult with cross-server exchanges. I would definitely prefer to stay on Maguuma and I can say for sure I’m not deleting my characters. (Thanks for trying though) On that note, hey RIM. So it sounds like you also are on a different server though? How exactly does guesting work, is it still possible for me to collaborate in the guild on a different server?

Hey Acheron, don’t worry about the server guesting, it is very easy and a good way to be involved in a guild without switching. Here’s some info:

To guest on a server, go to your character select screen. In the bottom left hard side is a button for select your server. You can click on any server on the list that you would like to guest on. Two buttons show, one for guesting and one for transferring. Guesting lasts for 24 hrs or until you log out, so whenever you want to play on your guild server you will have to pull up the menu and select it. This is fast and easy though, so you will probably not find it inconvenient. In any 24 hour period you can only guest on up to two other servers (but you can re-guest to the same server as many times as you want, say if you log in and out 4 times in a day). This isn’t really a big deal though for most people.

Anyway, looks like you may have found another guild already, but if that doesn’t work out maybe you’d like to check out mine. ^^ My guild, MadCast Gaming, is on Sanctum of Rall, but you can feel free to guest for as long as you want. Some of our members never transfer, but if you ever want to transfer in the future, we are happy to help dedicated and involved members save for the transfer. It’s all up to you.

MadCast is a gaming community that is bigger than GW2, but we are working on growing our GW2 sector right now. You can check out our website at www.madcastgaming.com. I especially suggest you read through the forums some to get a feel for what we are all about! Here are some points you may find attractive about MadCast:

We have a mature community. While MadCast has no specific age requirements we do have high expectations for maturity. You will find kind, patient people and no drama. The vast majority of our members are over 18 (especially in GW2). Most of our GW2 members are older with careers, and many have families and children.

We are a serious community with casual gameplay. In other words, the main expectations we have for members revolves around positive contribution to the community and not on a packed GW2 schedule attendance. If you are active in the forums and show up to a few events a week, that is good enough for us. Our community is made out of all levels of players. We have many very new players, some new to gaming in general, and our environment is built on kindness and helpfulness. People will be happy to answer you questions and guide you through things no matter how basic or advanced.

We have a super awesome, active TeamSpeak group. We enforce strict rules of respectfulness and tolerance among our players, making it a safe friendly place for everyone. People of all types feel comfortable joining in the conversation and making new friends.

Our community is bigger than in-game. We have a website with a lot of activity and heavy forum use. This is a huge asset because we have people who play all kinds of games over at MadCast, and the forums really serve as the uniting factor among people.

If you check out our website, you will see information about becoming a Full Member of MadCast. This is not something you need to do right away. Our guild welcomes ‘Associate’ Members, meaning we will add you to the guild, you are free to use our TeamSpeak and join our Forums, but you do not have complete access rights for inviting people to the guild yourself, or accessing certain Full Member parts of our forum. This is a good way to find out if MadCast is the right fit for you before applying. In the long run, to gain any ranking position, we require people to be an official MadCast Full Member.

If you want to, I’d love to invite you to join us and meet some of our members. I would encourage you to join us in our TeamSpeak (you can find information about that here: http://www.madcastgaming.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?2-New-to-MadCast). Alternatively, you can private message me in game, and I would be happy to add you in to one of our parties. TeamSpeak is our main form of communication, and even if you aren’t comfortable using your mic, it would be great if you installed it just to listen to the chatter. Quite a few of our members participate this way.

If you have any questions you can message me in game, post here, or join our forums and ask there. Good luck finding a place for you! <3

Thanks for the information RedJustice, it is good to know my options. Naturally it would be great to find a guild on my server Maguuma so I could avoid any complications altogether. However I’m still weighing my options and have not officially decided on a guild yet, so I will take MadCast Gaming guild into consideration.

Good luck to you. You will have a lot more fun with GW2 when you are playing with friends; that’s for sure! If you have questions/need help with anything more let me know!

Hey Archeron

[UM] is a PvX guild that is friendly and helpful to all levels. We have events for lower levels such as spvp, lowbie leveling, and lower level dungeons and we have our more “endgame” events such as WvW and higher dungeons. I’ll post our guild blurb and let you find out more about us that way.

Good luck in your search and thank you for reading!
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Who We Are
We are a PvX guild with a pride in respecting others, no matter their play style or play level. We also are tight knit and enjoy getting to know one another through activities such as Dungeons, WvW, Fractals, sPvP, or partying up in PvE to do Orr events and
Dragons, and even helping with lvling main characters and alts.

The Unholy Mackerels has a core group of active members and we are building upon that, however doing so slowly so we get to know each and every one. We currently are a medium sized guild with 65 members, consisting of mostly NA members.

We are quite the social guild through teamspeak and guild chat. We use teamspeak but do not require it. Our newer members can listen in on the first few days and talk when they feel comfortable, however most talk within minutes because of how easy going everyone is!

What We Do
We currently run weekly scheduled WvW, Dungeons, Fractals, Guild Treks and Guild Bounties (Guild Rush unlock is currently 50% done). Members of “Regular” rank are granted abilities to schedule events too to ensure the guild is having fun the way it’s members want to! Also we provide FUN events and random guild chat trivia with prizes. There is always something going on daily, typically between 6PM-1AM Eastern.

What Server We Are On
You can find us on the Fort Aspenwood server. A tier 2 server for WvW, has a busy PvE population in maps, has a friendly community forums for all things GW2, also has a community teamspeak where everyone is welcome which also has our own guild channel (however we use our private TS in most cases). All-in-all, a server that enjoys working together through good communication while playing to just have fun.

What if I’m not on FA?
No fear! UM allows recruits to guest for up to a month in order to help everyone to have time to gather in game gold or irl money in order to transfer. Our staff and members are also more than willing to help by running events to help out! With all the events we run it is very easy to make the money to transfer in as little as a week.

How to Join Us!
Take a look around on our website to see more about us and our events we run and click “Join” to fill out our simple and easy app. If you have any questions, feel free to ask any one of us, we would definitely be happy to answer!
