Guild Wars 2

Hi!

I’m a casual female player looking for a guild for myself as well as a couple friends, some of whom will be brand new players. Sadly some uncomfortable and unpleasant interactions with my first guild actually caused me to take a hiatus of several months from the game and I never joined another guild after it. I’ve finally gotten the nerve to try again.

I’d like a friendly PvE group of any size with zero-tolerance for bigotry to explore experience some of the tougher content (dungeons, WvW, maybe PvP and fractals too – I’ve never tried any!) and pioneer the upcoming expansion with. I’ve done guild challenges (successfully!) and guild bounties (not as often successfully!) before and I really enjoy participating in coordinated group stuff.

At the moment I play a level 80 male sylvari engineer exclusively. I plan on making a mesmer at some point and trying out revenant in the next HoT beta. I don’t know much about optimizing my build and instead play what I like and what feels right. (My one true passion in the game is collecting dyes. SO MANY DYES, YOU GUYS.) Personally I spend a lot of time in the starting areas to help lower level characters with the same skill challenges that were difficult for me when I was new. I’d love to help anyone needing a hand getting through their personal stories at their own pace, chat about GW and GW2 lore, craft inventory bags for newbies, hang out in Lion’s Arch and make new friends. I really didn’t get this game to play it solo.

I already use Skype and am willing to re-download Teamspeak (I might mute/prefer to type to start with until I feel more comfortable) as well as forums, etc. Once I’m acclimated I’m very social and can happily chat about anything.

Thank you for reading, and if you think you might know of the right guild fit for me, please feel free to leave a response here or send me a message in game! See you in Tyria!

Oh, Ruemilan, I think my guild would be a great fit for you and your friends! I lead a guild called Ember Solace, and I specifically founded the guild as a safe space for LGBTQ people, women, people of color, people with disabilities, and other people who generally tend to get harassed and discriminated against (especially online). I’m really sorry that you had such an awful experience in your first guild. =\ I’ve been there, and it just ruins the game.

I know that a lot of guilds say they don’t tolerate any bigotry or anything, but I promise you that we are very serious about it. Please take a look at our Purpose and Principles where we make our stance on all of that very clear. (All members are required to read and “sign” it upon joining.)

So a little more about us! We’re a PvX guild with a broad focus that includes PvE, PvP, Role-Play, and Social activities. If you’re curious about the kinds of events we do, you can check out our Calendar. We’re super excited for Heart of Thorns, too! Also, we’re definitely newbie-friendly. We actually have a “Guidance Team” led by Mustachio, with Sarah and Mikey helping out, and their sole purpose is to help new members acclimate to the guild and help new players acclimate to the game. Like you, we enjoy playing what we like and what feels right, although we do have a few members who really enjoy theory-crafting.

We use TeamSpeak3, but it’s optional, and we do have people who choose not to use it for various reasons. No one is pressured to use it, but most people choose to log on, even if just to listen only, for things like Guild Missions.

Also, we’re 100% rep and we have an application and a Trial Period. I know that might sound kind of hardcore for a relaxed guild, but we’re serious about the safe space, and it’s a lot easier to keep it safe when we have the application and Trial Period. =P (The application isn’t about gear or level or anything like that; it’s a sort of “get to know you” to make sure people will be a good fit.)

If you like what you’re hearing so far, you can register on our forums (and validate your e-mail) to get read-only access to our GW2 sections (including our Social Corner), so you can kind of check us out more. You’ll be able to read all of the threads in those sections, which will give you an idea of the kind of guild environment we have, how we treat each other, etc. (Plus just visiting the forums will let you see our ShoutBox and people’s avatars/signatures, which will also help show what we’re like.)

If you have any questions, I’m more than happy to answer them. You can PM me here or, if you register on our forums, you can send me a PM there, or you can always try to catch me in game. I hope you’ll consider us! =)
