Bumping up for exposure! Looking for a few good men (and women)!
Still recruiting! All play types!
FIRE has been getting a bit more active in WvW once again. At one time, we were raiding several times a week, but with changes in WvW, the new awesomeness of HoT, and changers in the guild, WvW fell to the back burner. Lately, however, we have seen a little surge of activity in WvW once again.
We have one scheduled commander-led raid each week on Saturday evenings, but we have seen 3-4 days a week with havoc teams setting up and running an impromptu activity. We could definitely use a few more Christians that would like more exposure to WvW, whether experienced or brand new. We can teach the tactics, give assistance on builds, and teach the fundamentals of capturing objectives and group fighting. We pride ourselves on having a family-friendly approach to WvW, so if this is what you are looking for, check us out! No elitism, just friendliness!
Our application is at http://christianfire.enjin.com.
Bumping up. Been a blast lately. Looking for some new friends!
FIRE has seen a few returning members as we embrace the holiday season. It is so great to have the fellowship and fun within our community, and we are thankful for all the blessings God has bestowed upon our guild.
Merry Christmas to you all in the Guild Wars community! And do not forget to look past the gifts, snow, and Santas to recognize Jesus’s birth! He is the reason for the season! If there is anything we can pray for here in FIRE, just message and I would love for FIRE to pray for your needs!

I am looking for a guild. I am a Christian and am interested in joining your Guild. I am fairly new to GW and have a 57 Revenant.
Hello there! I sent you a message in-game. I look forward to hearing back from you!
Welcome to the guild, Shaddrach! I look forward to playing with you! Also, welcome our other recent new members, Zera and SpeedBump!
I love this guild and I love the NSP server! I’m so glad I found FIRE a little over two years ago. Just after that we transferred to NSP. I’m so glad we transferred! Northern Shiverpeaks has been a fun, drama-free, server. It’s been fun running around in WvW with them.
FIRE has been an awesome guild, active in both PvE and WvW. I’ve enjoyed the socializing and fellowship on TS. If you’re tired of the vulgarity and usual drama that sometimes occurs in other guilds, this is the place for you. I’m glad I joined!
5 new members in the past couple weeks. And they all seem like awesome guys! We are loving the activity of our new members!
We do not accept everyone into the guild that randomly PM’s and asks to join. We have a selective process though our website application that weeds out the lazy and lesser committed potential applicants and brings in quality members. We love the dynamic this has helped us grow our guild!
With nearly ten years in Guild Wars over two games, FIRE has proven itself to be a stable and resilient guild! PM me if you have any questions.
This has been a good back up guild for me, the people are all friendly, and the Christian fellowship is great. Learning a fair amount about WvW even though I am solidly PVE. Xivor and the crew are top notch.
Wish to send a Merry Christmas and Happy and Healthy New Year to a great guild from your friends over in Tyrs Paladium.
I remember singing O Come All Ye Faithful with the rest of my classmates back in Holy Rosary in the Bronx during the holidays in church. I do not however, remember it sounding so catchy as Pentatonix has made it! These folks are really talented. Enjoy and rock on!
O Come, All Ye Faithful – Pentatonix

I hope everyone had a wonderful and exciting holiday season! We are back in full swing, and are proud to announce that the return of one of our most awesome Commanders, Jordan! We had an awesome time last night with me starting the raid, and him taking over! In addition to our commanding, Eleyna has kept the group going in unscheduled havoc runs at night.
We don’t have a lot of coordinated PvE right now, but tons of casual and small group PvE, and are looking for a few good members dedicated and maybe willing to coordinate some scheduled PvE activities! Open world PvE activities would be the best!
Activity has been good! WvW has continued to see a lot of activity as we move through the winter. We are training a new commander, Speedbump, and we have several players switching up their classes and gearing new professions so they can be more adaptable for the party composition.
Every week, we still take a short time to take prayer requests from within the guild and pray with each other. This is the catalyst of the guild, as this builds the bond that we have as Christians.
If you are looking for a Christian guild…or just a family-friendly guild, where you are more than just a number, then check us out. Most of our scheduled activities currently revolve around WvW coordination, however there is a LOT of PvE sprinkled in between. We love to teach on how to best play classes, builds, and roles in PvE and WvW both. It is part of being a community!
Looking for some good, quality members still! We have plenty of PvE-only players and are really looking to gain a couple more members that are willing to expand their horizons and embrace WvW in a non-elitist, friendly approach to the gamemode. Good gear and meta builds are not required for membership. However, we love those that are willing to adapt in order to improve! We work together as a team to assist each other in gearing up, learning battlefield tactics, and becoming better players are our professions!
Currently, FIRE has 2 experienced driver/commanders that lead weekly, 2 experienced havoc leaders, and one up-and-coming commander that is training. Our focus is always fellowship over performance, and we strive to find a balance between good fights, and increasing server PPT for the match score.
WvW only players are not necessary. We are not a hardcore WvW-only guild. We are a PvX guild that has a ton of PvErs that do small group activities, and a core of 25ish that really enjoy WvW on a regular basis. Our Saturday commander-led raids receive an average ongoing attendance of 14-15 as of late, and we often have 5-8 man havoc groups on other nights.
Family-friendly is a must! We dont want those that get frustrated and curse up a storm with a bunch of expletives! We are a very family-oriented guild and often have little ears near our speakers! And, of course as we are a Christian-oriented guild, we strive to be Christlike in our conversation!
Fill out an application at http://christianfire.enjin.com/page/293091/recruitment if interested! Even if you never want to do WvW, do not let that push you away! We have a guild of over 150, and not all do WvW!
Fun times this week! New WvW team-up poses new, fresh fun! Ask how you can be a part of this awesome family-friendly community!
What to expect from FIRE social activity?
========
- Family Friendly gaming environment
- Occasional faith-based discussion (we are a Christian guild primarily, so to be expected!)
- Weekly prayer meeting (share requests and pray over them)
- A dedicated group of 30-40 Teamspeak users that form the majority of our WvW efforts and coordinated PvE
What to expect from FIRE PvE activity?
======
- A ton of casual solo and small-group PvE, coordinated primarily in guild chat
- Semi-coordinated TS PvE activities among the TS users
- Weekly Guild Missions (Mondays)
What to expect from FIRE WvW activity?
========
- 13-16 member + pugs Weekly commander-led WvW raid on Saturdays
- 4-8 member WvW havoc; non-commander led, and unscheduled, yet consistantly done
- Consistent WvW support to other WvW tags, most notably PB’s commanders
- Occasional off-hours pug commanding from Xivor or Dark Blue
What we are looking to grow in?
- More social family-friendly members that are avid TS users and want to participate in group activity
- 4-5 more dedicated WvW-primary players with good WvW builds to round out our core. Non-elite attitudes and willing to support other tags while we slowly boost up new commanders from within. Looking for Guardians, Elementalists primarily. Looking for the willingness to adapt builds and playstyle to fit guild composition.
- 5-10 more PvX members willing to do WvW on a casual basis. Willingness to adapt builds and accept assistance from primary WvW members in bettering their gear, skill, and tactics.
- 1-2 more WvW commanders to be trained from within
- More coordinated PvE activity (map metas, fractals, a raid team possibly)
- PvE leaders willing to lead weekly activities and willing to push our guild members to participate
=========
No guild is perfect. We aim to become better rounded in our WvW efforts, both in fight tactics, and in supporting NSPPT. We aim to add on one more dedicated WvW raid day, once a commander is trained up and secured to lead it. We aim to increase our coordinated PvE activities, and require those willing to lead. We aim to increase our social activity and usage of Teamspeak for collaboration, planning, and fellowship. We may not be a perfect guild, but we are a forward-moving guild. Whereas many guilds falter when activity levels decrease, FIRE has always maintained a steady activity level through new members coming in, old members going lesser active, and returning members coming back. Our steady ebb and flow has contributed to a stable guild for almost 10 years across both Guild Wars games. Come check us out if you are looking for a family-friendly, Christian guild with a steady WvW core!
Had an outstanding raid yesterday…ran 17-20 FIRE the entire night and held down EB as main tag for the first half of the raid and then switched to take/pressure keeps in main opponents BL. Great activity brought us a lot of bags and a lot of fun! Not many groups of Christians that can bring an organized presence to the battlefield, with both experienced and new WvW players working together!
Hey there! Me and my husband ran with you guys tonight and had a blast! You gave us lots of laughs on teamspeak so we had to look you up. Well we absolutely love your post! Your guild seems perfect for us in every way. Your message is perfect and rings true with us. So we’d like to know if we can join? Thank you for your time!
We have had an exceptional month of growth! We have added a selection of 8-10 new members, which include two husband/wife teams! They all integrated quite well, are actively engaged on Teamspeak and in activities, and contribute to the community we are striving to build!
God is gracious! With that, we have increased our average persistant attendance for our WvW raids to 15-18 members once again, with about 20-25 participants as members come and go to manage family tasks and other obligations. Now, just to train up another commander, so we can add on a second official raid day.
There is some talk about coordinated open world meta activities and other PvE possibilities for events. We shall see what unfolds as our members are starting to get more involved in leading activities. Great growth, both in numbers and in quality within the guild.
We are still recruiting for Born-Again Christians looking for a family friendly home. We also accept applications from those that may have differing faith backgrounds but value the family-friendly environment we are building here and are looking for this same type of atmosphere. If this applies to you, then visit http://christianfire.enjin.com and fill out an application!
Hey all! After completing the application process on the FIRE website (the Enjin is great by the way!) me and my husband were welcomed to the guild with open arms. We’ve been in the guild almost a month, and everyone seems like family. The wvw is amazing with our guild leader as commander, and others sometimes taking the tag and doing immensely well. As well as wvw, there’s a lot of other activities that go on in the guild. Guild missions, key farms, meetings and … a book club! To my delight. It is definitely a family friendly guild and I’d implore you to look at the website to find out more. Me and my husband were very lucky we found this guild. Thank you FIRE for being amazing!
I’ve been with FIRE for about a year and a half and I love it! Not so much for the WvW (although I really like that) but for the Christian fellowship and community. I almost left the game because of the rude and unwelcome comments and the lack genuine help in learning the game. The members of FIRE made a huge difference in all of that. It was the best thing to happen to me in the game.
I joined fire sometime last year.. but have largely been inactive due to real life stuff. In any case.. I’ve gotten some time and began playing again.. and the FIRE gang are a phenomenal group of people. Fun to play with.. great to chat with.. all around amazing people.. Fire is gamers.. Fire is friendship. It’s all about having fun and enjoying yourself.
If you are into WvW then there’s no question you want to be here. We encourage a family friendly environment based around solid Christian values..
I’m glad to be here..
Update: I’ve been getting more and more involved with FIRE and have developed a great fellowship and connection with my guildmates. I haven’t felt this connected to a guild since MANY MANY years ago when I played another MMO…
One of the things I’ve not had the pleasure of doing in GW2 so far is raiding. From past experience I will NOT PUG a raid.. just won’t.. and FIRE really wasn’t raiding sadly.. They had tried it back early in HoT but things didn’t work out.
So, getting that raiding fever again.. and wanting to get my legendary armor.. I’ve created a new initiative to begin raiding. The guild has responded well.. and I led a 9 man group into VG this past Saturday.. very OFF the CUFF. No optimized builds, traits, gear, etc.. just “LET’S DO THIS!!.” Many of the guildies have NEVER done VG or any other raid.. so it was new territory..
We took the 9 man group in.. and managed to get to Phase 3 before wiping. We did great I felt for a first time group going out!! But we are building up to create optimized teams, builds, and gear.. so the more we have.. the more teams will run.. the more will have access to Legendary Insights if you want to get Legendary Armor!
So, if you were are looking for a family friendly, Christ centered (though any faith is welcome!!) guild to enjoy GW2, and want to RAID visit us at:

FIRE is a great guild and very diverse. We are very active in WvW (Northern Shiverpeaks server), and now Raiding is our new initiative!! PVE, World Bosses, Guild Missions and events..
Come join us!!

(FIRE Raid Coordinator)
Chariot of Fire is still actively recruiting! We are a diverse group of members that share a desire for a family-friendly gaming environment. What this means is:
– No drama!
– No cursing!
– No disgusting talk!
– No disrespect!
– No elitism!
We base our values on the values given in the Word of God, as our foundation as a goal is in Jesus Christ. To many, this may seem weird, but we are a faith-based group, and we have successfully been involved in the Guild Wars community for 10 years now!
We have a strong active core that do WvW nearly nightly, either by scheduled guild raids, guild havoc, or supporting other commanders on the map. We are semi-coordinated in our approach to WvW, which means we value leader-led coordination with strong optimal builds, but we are not elitist towards those that are just learning the ropes or cannot afford the best gear just yet. We love to teach, mentor, and help each other get better as players and in their builds!
Our latest endeavor has been in Maguuma raids! We are starting with Spirit Vale, learning the tactics, gearing up our characters to be optimal (using qT builds), adapting to our team composition, and improving slightly each raid night. Currently we have enough participants with the right gear to have one raid team, one night a week. Our approach is coordinated, and gear is important in raiding, unfortunately due to the design by ArenaNet. That being said, we have assisted each other to learn, farm materials, and build up our characters to be the best they can be for the raiding team!
We are at a point where we could add a few good solid, active individuals. We value social activity, such as TS participation, chat participation, forums collaboration, and maybe even Facebook communication (not required). In a nutshell…we value playing as a team, staying in communication, and working together to improve…in a family friendly environment based upon Christian values!
If interested, fill out an application at https://christianfire.enjin.com
Bumping up as we are recruiting still! Looking to fill a 2nd raid team possibly for late NA. Our main raid team is slowly progressing towards beating our first Raid boss. We got to raiding much later than many in GW2, so for us, its a brand new experience still!
Interested in drama-free, friendly, and clean gaming? We are based upon Christian ideals, as our membership is 98% born-again Christians.
