Guild Wars 2

So wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy back in Fed ( I think?) was this guild missions patch. It’s May 16th and still, no smaller guild missions, in fact not even mention at all. Back in March on this very website it had it had the tag “New Rewards!!!” It also said “Last month we rolled out our new guild missions, open-world content specifically created with guilds in mind” Hahaha really now?

New Rewards:

“Extending guild missions isn’t limited to just content. We aim to improve rewards as well. To that end, a completely new set of weapons has been commissioned and made available at the Guild Commendation vendor”

Your right Anet. Extending guild missions isn’t limited to just content it’s Limited to just smaller guilds.

Any word on when smaller guilds will have access to Missions? Or did you forget about us :/

Guild Bounty Training

A Guild Bounty Training is a type of Guild Bounty, with only one target instead of two or more. It costs far less to unlock, thus giving smaller guilds the opportunity to build influence more quickly to unlock other types of guild missions, but does not award any Guild Merits.

That’s 3000 influence per 3 days, or 1000 per day. 2000 if you double queue training, and just if you actually win those trainings. Getting something like Half-Baked Komali is a huge task for a small guild.

320k influence is massive, and almost all small guilds are excluded from this guild content, unless they throw in huge amounts of gold.

You talk like these Trainings are the only method of getting influence.

You get them from normally playing with your guild.

I’m a small guild of 4 IRL friends. We do Guild Bounty training weekly, and we are now 10k influence away from a true Bounty. And just the influence we had from playing the game since launch, we have level 4 for everything (5 for AoW).

Meanwhile, there’s a ton of large guilds who hold public guild missions, so I’ve already experienced Bounty/Rush/Challenge/Trek. However, I do want to unlock Bounties at least, so our guild members can earn commendation on their own time. We have certainly managed, and don’t feel left out at all, and actually made a few friends with the bigger guild that we hang out with for Missions.

Omg i loved those small GW1 guilds, had so much fun. Now i have to join this massive guild in order to do content. The problem is, being in a large guild is really anti-social. Most guilds are multi language because of this. I hate that. When i find a guild that speaks my language. I’m serrounded by people i don’t know. All the time there i people i don’t know and it’s so annoying because i can’t feel like a group of friends in this kind of environment. It’s like you are a sheep in a massive company. Atleast bring back alliances because the multi-guild system DOES NOT WORK. If you don’t represent a certain guild, you get kicked. FACT.

This isn’t true though.

There’s plenty of guilds who hold public missions and don’t mind you not representing, or don’t mind you joining and leaving just for the Guild Missions. Go through em! Hopefully you’ll find one that suits your schedule. And hopefully you’ll meet cool new people!

Another small guild complaint? Here let me play the smallest violin in the world for you….
