Q:
Guild Slots & Silverwastes shovels
I just want to say i have made a guild and invited friends but they cant join because they didnt have nough guild slots and to be quite honest 5 just isnt enough lol maybe its time gw2 updates this? because it isnt the first time i have heard of this topic <3
on that note, having a new guild hall requires upgrades such as silverwaste shovels sometimes 50-100 at a time per upgrade, these are rare drops in Silverwastes; they should be easier to come by as a high demand req. guild hall upgrade material
Well I have to say – shovels drop pretty commonly – and it’s meant to be a guild-wide effort – so have a group of guildies run Vinewrath a couple of times and you’ll have more shovels than you need. In addition, it’s pretty easy to find someone willing to donate the shovels as a temporary guild member (for a relatively small fee). I know most of my guildies have at least 2 stacks of shovels just sitting in the bank.
Also, I would not agree with making things easier – the challenge in the game is half the fun!
I think 5 is a good number. A “main” a “personal” and 3 others. Shovels are not “that” rare of a drop, just be active and run around a lot! Have a good one!
SW gets boring really quick.
As one of the people with stacks of shovels sitting around I can’t agree there, but I agree on the more guilds part. There’s so many different ‘types’ of guilds I feel like 5 just isn’t enough. Guilds tend to be geared toward one aspect or toward being a home guild. And many people like to have personal guilds.
if you lay it out as wvw/pvp/pve/personal/home it kinda works. but really pve tends to seperate out into guilds for specific pve goals, like SW, orr, worldbosses, raids, HoT metas (no, not just AB), etc.
The more new content we get the more guilds will be geared towards those individual parts of the game. So I don’t think 5 is enough anymore. I want to make friends to do other content with that my current guildies aren’t necessarily interested in, which preferably means more guilds (leaving any of my current ones would break my heart).
Shovels aren’t all that rare but they are mostly from the map bonuses so sitting around at a fort is going to be very slow.
