Guild Wars 2

A long awaited Bump. UA is back after our break and bringing in new members. Join UA to become family!

Looking for more ambitious members to increase our ranks. Advancement is possible in our family to those who show initiative.

UA is warming up for the HOT expansion. Join us today for an excursive position in the upcoming expansion!

UA is still ongoing and strong, we are still openly recruiting new or old players.

Guild Lottery is now in effect. See our website for more information!

Umbral Ascendancy welcome 5 new members this week.

First attempt at a Guild Rush was successful!. Congrats to all that made it!

Thank you both! Yes, I agree more strangers would make things a bit more difficult. It already seems a bit “impersonal” but then how would I motivate my current member to be more vocal in guild chat or even TS?

I believe I am posting in the right section because this is not a thread about looking for a guild merger. This is more along the lines of asking the community some questions and getting some feedback on an idea I have had in my mind for awhile.

Obviously, I am a guild leader with ~100 members under me. We are fully unlocked, have a website, teamspeak3, and a Kik chat room. We do guild missions every week and for the most part we seem to be a very causal happy family.

But, I have noticed some issues within the guild that I am not sure on how to address by myself and my officers are just as clueless as I am. Those revolve around communication. Our TS3 is rarely used for anything but our missions and the guild chat can go quiet for hours at a time.

I became a guild leader so I can make long lasting friends and provide for them the best that I can. I miss the days in other games where guild chat would be non-stop banter between guildies and participation would never be an issue. I play an MMORPG for the people, If I wanted to be by myself I would just play Skyrim.

Now that you have some of the basics to my problem I will bring in the “idea”. With only ~100 members, we have space to take in more and expand. Being fully set up with all the tools a guild could need including a paid website and TS. Would a guild merger with another guild solve the problem?

• It would bring in more people, encouraging (hopefully) a more social atmosphere.
• Those people would (hopefully) participate and show an example to the others.
• We would increase our family and get to know more people on a level much higher then just recruiting.
• I would be happy to share leadership with a new clan.

So here comes the community questions. Would this be a healthy turn for the guild? Has a guild merger ever happened to anyone’s knowledge? What was the outcome? Does anyone think there would even be another struggling guild out there that would want to merge? [I mean who would want to give up what they had to becoming part of something bigger?]

I’m just curious because I want to fix the growing problem of silence… I could take the easy route and join a guild that had that talkative community already, but I cant give up on my family…

Any advice/input is appreciated…
Thank you for reading.

We will be doing our weekly guild missions tomorrow after server reset. Join now to participate!

SCREENSHOT CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED.

Please visit our website (http://umbral-ascendancy.enjin.com) for more information on our next contest!

[UA] Umbral Ascendancy

We rise from the shadow, We rule from the shadow. We rise and rise again with each new day.

UA is recruiting all players and play styles. We are a North American based guild that offers all end game content. We have our own website and TeamSpeak3 servers. We host monthly guild contests with prizes. We concentrate on quality members over quantity and try to get to know each person on our roster to develop friendships. UA is a family and we are opening up our doors to you!

MORE ON UA PHILOSOPHY:

Most guilds today focus on maximizing their roster, it is the quantity and not the quality of their members that matters to them. When you join a guild with this mindset you are quickly forgotten and lost in the mass. You are just another number and not a player who is really good at playing their class and has much knowledge to offer or a player who is new but is a lot of fun to explore the game with. At Umbral Ascendancy we genuinely want to get to know our members and experience Guild Wars 2 with players we become friends with. Guild Wars 2 is a enjoyable game, but this enjoyment is expounded upon when you are experiencing all the game offers with others. This is why Umbral Ascendancy was created.

Some guilds even go as far as telling you how to play your class and what gear and weaponsets you should or shouldn’t use. A big part of the game is experimenting with the different classes and finding what gear and weaponsets you like using most. Umbral Ascendancy does not limit you or tell you how your class must be played. If you want advice we gladly help you, but we do not enforce the current meta-builds; they are looked at as optional. This same view is followed when it comes to dungeons and other high-end content. Certain dungeons call for specific class setups. If you want to do a dungeon with five elementalists so be it! It is about having fun and not beating speedclear records. We want you to play what you enjoy most and feel most confident using. In the end Umbral Ascendancy’s success does not come from its accomplishments but rather from its member’s enjoyment of being a part of the guild. We look forward to playing with you!

Less than a week left in our current contest. Join now for you chance to win prizes!
Guild bounty and trek this Saturday!
Welcome new members!

I believe a proactive approach is better then hoping someone will respond to a forum post. Players will spend their time in game. Not trolling the forums. When I see someone who is looking for a guild, especially a player new to GW2 who will spend the majority of their free time in game, I will send them an in game invite and speak to them in the medium that we will use on a day to day basis.

Guardian of Angles: I do apologize if I happened to “poach” your prospect who has since then joined UA and thank you for bumping my post.

We are based on Northern Shiverpeaks but have many members on Jade Quarry as well. Unless you want to spent a lot of time in the battlegrounds it does not really matter which server your on.

If your still looking, Umbral Ascendancy always has open doors! Although off to a slow start this guild will be around in the years to come because it is a way for a lot of friends to keep in touch with each other over the distance.
