Old Style Guild - Gates of Madness

in Guilds

Hello Everyone out there, I’m Itolis. I have been playing MMOs since EQ and have found a complete lack of what I call and EQ style guild since then. Most guilds nowdays have the “Run it fast, No time to talk, I’m not here to make friends” mentality. I am just checking to see if there is any interest on this server for an old style guild. Now to clarify, here are a few of the key points that I would like to incorporate in a guild:

1. Take the time to talk and get to know your fellow guild members. People may appear to be character online but they are real people… get to know them!
2. Dungeons are meant to be speed through, they are meant to be fun! take your time, pull what you can with purpose and enjoy it! Explore! even if you explored it before! Save goes for WvW!
3. PVP is fun but its more fun when your with people you know! If you get to know your teamates you will know what they do! Get to know them and have fun!
4. Chatting is fun! Lets do it! – Most people don’t talk much anymore in these games! Lets chat!
5. Sometimes its fun to sit around and grind if your grinding with friends…. Make some!

Not all of us have RL friends who play these games and lets face it, some of us spend more time online with them than our real friends!

Also running your own events used to be alot of fun in older games. Lets try that too!

If anyone is interseted let me know in game. I would like to form a guild like this and just want to know if there is anyone out there left like me who remembers camping for days on end or those never ending dungeons that you used to run through with friends for hours!

Hit me up in game … and if there is enough interest we can start a guild! If not well then that is okay too!

Have fun everyone!

Hello, As an avid MMO player (but still rather casual) and with the mentality of an EQ1 7 year vet (Kunark starter) I am very intersted in this type of a guild. I remember spending hours sitting around just chatting with people waiting for a spawn etc and like people who realize MMO’s are just about grinding and items but social too. Is this emphasied at all in your guild? or rather to people tend to be that way? Its something I truly miss in current MMO’s and Guilds and am looking for it. I play casually but have alot of free time, but haven’t been on much as I don’t really have any friends playing. A new guild may change that. Let me know. I run and ele, mes, and nec currently ankittenaking my time leveling up.

My personal opinion: Shatters Need A Lot of Work

Shatter works great for condition mesmers. Consider the stack of 5 confusion from the scepter plus cry of frustration on a single target and they suddenly have 12 stack of confusion and die in about 4 seconds. It work just fine as it was intended to. Just because you don’t use it that way doesn’t mean others don’t.

Also keep in mind that some mesmers (myself included) actually use the scepter for its intended purpose… to spam clones for shattering and fodder. To change that would affect many condition mesmers such as I play in Spvp. I would suggest a different wep probably geatsword as it doesn’t naturally generate any clones and you get an additional phant out of it.
