Guild Wars 2

rhapsody.3615:

You were probably talking to some people who recently had guild drama. My best advice is to join a larger guild for guild missions and any other large group activities. If you have a few good friends, make a private guild with them which you can rep and talk when you aren’t doing something with your large guild.

Can you join two guilds at once? O.o Or did you mean joining on different characters?

“looking for a pve guild, I’m a beginner”

Which was exactly the content of what I wrote.

I bought GW2 when it launched but never got into it properly. Now I am back and find myself actually enjoying the game itself quite a bit. I can easily imagine sticking around casually playing the game for a longer period of time.

What I miss however is the social aspect, people to talk to and play with. So I figured that I should probably look around for a casual guild or something, just to have someone to talk to while playing. In lack of a better option I asked in the map chat if someone would take a casual noob into their guild. The only replies I got were from a couple of people who advised me to not join guilds, one of them even used the phrase “guilds will just abuse you”. O.o The following day I did the same, and got the same result. So, what’s up with the warnings about joining guilds – is it some sort of common knowledge around here that you should go solo and not in a guild? Or have I just had the bad luck to bump into a couple of individuals with a bad experience?

Might add that it was a bunch of very friendly people. So friendly that I got – mildly spoken – confused, I had barely replied before they told me to just drop them a whisper if I needed any help at some point.
