Guild Halls have been in game now for about six days. Here are some statistic so far:
1) Lost Precipice has been captured 1465 times
2) Gilded Hollow has been captured 2751 times
3) The very first guild hall to be captured is Lost Precipice by the guild “Za Drots”. They captured their guild hall less than two hours after launch.
4) Guild Halls have been captured by 4202 unique guilds, meaning 14 guilds have switched guild halls so far.
5) 7 guilds have completed restoring their arena, meaning they unlocked the second mainline arena upgrade.
Day Six Guild Hall Statistics

Shenanigrams! I know a ton of guilds have claimed the Lost Precipice and to see that over one thousand more guilds have claimed the Gilded Hollow than the Precipice is pretty unintuitive. Suspicious, Seth, suspicious. Dara, did you bribe Seth?
Unrelatedly, congrats to the guilds that are already finishing buildings in their guild halls!
Good day my friends,
McKenna and I would like to thank the Guild Wars 2 community for selecting the obviously best guild choice: Gilded Hollow. Granted I may have guild tripped people on the stream as I showed off the doubtlessly more shiny and glorious guild hall. But ultimately it was your votes that have decided! Gilded for the Guilded 2015! #TeamGildedHollow
Thank you.
PS: Sorry Link. The numbers don’t lie! And I don’t have enough jpop to get Seth’s vote. The people’s choice is Gilded Hollow!
Maybe you two should be involved in a trust fall event <3

NERF GILDED HOLLOW! It’s too op.
Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

Thank you everyone! The skritt rejoice with us on this day!

When gilded hollow is completely done is there a parade of skrit thinking it is skrit heaven?
YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→most likely YB
Well congrats to all.

Ley lines. The perfect solution to deadlines and writers block. Now in an easy open Can.
how many guilds have attempted but failed to get a hall so far? whats the size breakdown of those guilds who’ve claimed a hall?
Any word on the first Guild to claim Gilded Hollow?
Too bad our guild can’t claim a hall because the only one who got the rights with hot to do it is our old leader who is inactive for months now and support can’t/won’t help us. But once we decided on a new guild name for our recreated guild, guilded hollow will get a +1.
Something is rotten in the state of Denmark, friends. Or in the Guild Initiative, as the case may be. We never set an explicit end time for this wager, McKenna and Dara, so I think it’s a little early to call the result on our friendly bet. For all we know, a bunch of guilds took the Lost Precipice initially, but were seduced by mere curiosity to delve into the gloomy recesses beneath Tarir. It’s entirely possible that, given some time, they will turn their faces once more to the warmth and light of the Lost Precipice.
Here’s what I propose: we give the community until December 1st to make their choice, then we measure again and applaud the winner.
Do you accept, ladies?
I guess I can agree to that…
Just don’t feel too bad as the numbers for Gilded Hollow continue to increase because the players know what is best!
Because I am more than confident that the Gilded Hollow is the best, I also agree to an extension of the wager. If anything, I am willing to bet LP will lose guilds as they realize LP was a flight of fancy. And that the grounded security and beauty of Gilded Hollow was the better option.
Civil war, ohnoes.

Another fun fact that I feel is relevant to this “discussion”: the Arenanet guild chose and captured the Lost Precipice Guild Hall.
Thanks for the cool stats! I’d be interested in Jaxom’s question too. Our guild failed twice on Gilded Hallow and succeeded on the third try after a lot of study, hints and just playing smarter. Things that really worked for us was finding the areas where you can get out of the water back to the main level. Starting your forces in the middle of the map and clearing it a bit first, before even starting the event, to reduce dragged adds and just being totally focused on the high threat adds, then the tenders and finally the maw then immediately returning to center to be ready for the next spawn. Also, if you die, immediately waypoint out, there’s no time to rez people.
Now, unfortunately I got obliterated for the Vinewrath so spent the entire battle running back only to get faceplanted upon return and have no idea how we did that part!

I’m curious – any stats on the very first guild to have both guild halls captured?
And, the first guild to capture Gilded Hollow?
Thanks.

As a dane I can confirm that it’s just the Guild Initiative.
Better check it for Consortium spies.
I mean, people have been getting karka stuck to their faces, and I sure haven’t seen any karka in Magus Falls.
Being totally malicious here:
Maybe the Gilded Hollow is easier to capture?

On a side note, I have 2 questions. Can a Guild own both places? Second, if at a later date, can you switch places and still retain your current guild upgrades?

1) No, you can only won one at a time
2) Yes, to capture a different one go purchase the expedition for that hall and complete it. You will retain your old hall until you succeed the new expedition. All of your upgrades will then apply to your new hall and you will loose access to your old hall.
I think it has a lot to do with the layout. For just getting around to all your services, Hollow is just more convenient.
I mean jump pads are cool and all, but when I just want to go between two buildings I’d like to just walk.
Also, it’s just so… shiny!
Precipice IS cool looking, and a great place to visit (and indeed the two guilds we teamed up with for hall claiming day both took it wheras we took hollow) I just wouldn’t want to live there. Sorry Link

My character is head of two guilds that each captured Hollow and Precipice in the first few hours of launch. I am curious if that would be a first.

How can you add gliding, flying around in the skies and going to new heights… and then think it’d be better to be stuck in some underground cave?

Thanks Seth, my guild has secured one, but wasnt sure about keeping it till one of our more wealthy members devoted a crap ton of stuff, and would feel guilty losing it all hehehe.
You posted the first guild to take Lost Precipice, what about Gilded Hollow? Surely you have that information as well.
The first guild to capture Guilded Hollow is “Team Aggression”.
Congratulations to your speediness!
Being a Necromancer…my vote had to be the Hollow…I mean really now it’s an endless source for minions!
Vini, Vidi, Vici, Viridis…I came, I saw, I conquered…I got a green??
Any videos on what the fully-restored guild halls look like? I really love the beautiful sunset and sandstone look of Lost Precipice, but I don’t want my house to be a bunch of broken ruins… Will they ever be repaired?
hehe only WvW guilds won the race for guildhalls

Good Boys [GBP] Is one of the 7 guilds to have completed restoring the arena and I can assure you we are not a PVE guild ^.^
@Arthedain, no not at all! In fact, Good Boys [GBP], my GvG guild, is one of those first seven. ^^ I also know of a WvW/GvG guild in EU that also got theirs today.
