Guild Wars 2

I’m having a major problem here. I’m having difficulties finding a guild to my liking. I would like to have a bit bigger sized guild for PVE dungeons in my own country but it feels like a mission impossible.

First of all, compared to other MMOs that I’ve played, including Guild Wars 1, WoW and EVE Online, there seems to be absolutely no decent way to search for a guild. There seems to be no chat channel dedicated to recruit spamming, there is no big in-game list for different guilds and there seems to be no dedicated forum section to finding a guild either.

So can anyone point me in the right direction? There seems to be no mechanics making it easier for people to join different kinds of communities from different countries. I remember playing Guild Wars 1 and for some reason it had a lot of different kinds of finnish guilds, probably thanks to the recruiting chat channels. Now I’m at a complete loss. Any help appreciated.

Here is the forum section for guild recruitment / Looking for Guild postings. I believe this is what you were asking about…

Yeah, I looked around that section a bit. Although it has a lot of recruitment threads… it still is seems quite dead to me. I only spotted a few threads advertising finnish guilds that are very old and received no responses at all.

Couldn’t there be some sort of guild panel interface implemented in-game where you could advertise your guild and filter out guilds to your preference?

There is this too: http://gw2.guildex.org/guilds

However, most of the entries are old and outdated but maybe it will help present some options….“it’s over 9000” (no, seriously, it is).

Does GW1 have a chat channel for recruitment? I admit I haven’t played for a couple of months but I don’t remember one, and I do remember a lot of guild spam in the All channel (which is the same as Map in GW2).

Anyway, in GW2 I think your best bet is either to go to one of the cities and look for guilds advertising in chat or post an advert of your own to say you’re looking for one, or to use the forum section here.

Personally I prefer using the forum because it allows you to post something once and then leave it there for everyone to see rather than having to catch them when they’re online, and because it allows some time for you to check out the guild before deciding if you want to join or not.

Put in LFG and then a detailed description of what type of guild you’re looking for. Include ways to contact you via ingame mail or whisper.
