Guild Wars 2

Hi guys,

I recently joined Guild Wars 2 and I must admit that I’m very happy with what the game looks and feels like, kudos to ArenaNet for it. I was part of a big guild on our server and I saw that they seemed to have permanent guild buffs for various elements such as karma, influence, gold and xp from kills etc.

As our small guild is slowly growing, I’d like to have such buffs for our members too so my question is – which parts of the guild do I have to upgrade in order to have them?

Thanks!

As a guild, we made a choice to unlock everything before we started working on continuous buffs.

We don’t quite get the influence to do continuous buffs for all buffs, but we made the choice to have MF running continuously, and karma on the weekends. MF is the “cheapest” to do, and waypoint is the most expensive.

Keep track of how many members log in each day for a couple of weeks. We had 25-30 people log in each weekday, but 65-70 on the weekends, so we made the choice to runs lots of buffs all weekend, and not so much during the week. As we grow from here, we plan on adding to the boosts through the week.

Our planned order of trying to get perma buffs are:

1) MF Boost (cheaper than everything else)
2) Karma
3) Gold from Kills
4) Kill Exp
5) Gathering Bonus
6) Crafting Critial
7) Waypoint (this is more expensive than everything else)
