Hey all,

Could someone please explain to me how to do a guild trek in terms a child could understand?

What i got from my guild is, write down the numbers assigned to you, count down the list until you get to those numbers, open dulfy.net. ( Leave the game?) and done.

I’ve had a cerebral hemorrhage a few years back, and my brain simply doesn’t compute that anymore. Shouldn’t the game be able to shed some light on this by providing clues? Without the need for a thousand and one tasks to get where you need to be?

Thanks in advance.

The way my guild does a Trek is like this:

1. We gather together all who want to participate and then decide on a Tier from there
2. Everyone loads dulfy.net in their browser of choice on the Guild Trek Guide page so that they can find the locations easily
3. We start the Trek when everyone is ready and everyone calls out the name of the location they are going to. The locations show up on the Guild Missions Tab of the Guild Window (press G).
4. Everyone finds the location on the Dulfy guide and goes to where it is specified, calling out the name of the next location they go to after finding the first one they chose.

For example:
We do a Tier 1. That has a total of 5 locations we need to track down. The list says to find: Altar Brook Lair, Corruption’s Teeth, Elise’s Surprise, Soggorsort Rotunda, Mistriven Shelf.

Someone says they are going to go after “Corruption’s Teeth” and heads to Frostgorge Sound as indicated on the Dulfy list. They use the screenshots and tips to find the exact location needed. The same goes for the other locations until all have been found and “activated” and we win.

I hope that helps. Feel free to contact me in game with any other questions.

The game does provide a clue if you hover over the locations in the list, however from the Guild’s perspective they would probably prefer people use Dulfy to identify the correct location and get to it as quickly as possible to ensure successful completion of the Trek mission.

Treks are a timed mission and can be expensive if you are waypointing around the place trying to solve the clue. They also offer no player reward for completion, only merits for the guild, so most people don’t want to take the extra effort to solve the clues for themselves.

When we run them we run them as Aria describes – calling out where we are going – it can get a bit hectic in guild chat though!

Thank you for the responses. I guess that’s my problem. It gets hectic, both in guild chat and on mumble. I never mind taking one for the guild, but i can imagine a guild wanting it solved a.s.a.p. And then Dulfy makes sense as well.

I’ve found with most of the locations if I’ve been there then I’ll recognise it from the picture. Often I can look at the list, pick a place and be 1/2 way there by the time someone else has located it on dulfy/wiki.

Especially since a lot of them are actually in the cities, so if you start from the asura gates in LA you can get there very quickly.
