Guild Wars 2

Welcome trial member Vulcanus! (:

We’re having structured PvP tonight at 9EST! (:

We have some fun events scheduled for this week! (:

Welcome new trial member Fernlace!

Our RP event will be starting within the hour! (:

We have an rp event lined up for tomorrow (Saturday, Oct. 6) in our Tarnished Coast chapter!

We are still actively recruiting! Don’t hesitate to drop us a message here, on the forums or in game! (:

I am in the same situation. I run about 40-50 FPS in PvE with Best Appearance Settings, 40 in WvW where no action is going on but as soon as I hit a large scale battle with Best Performance Settings (anything above 10-15 players), I’m usually at about 3-9 FPS. I think it’s only playable ‘cause I’m too stubborn to let it keep me out of WvW. Although, I’m not running high-end processors like you i5/i7 folks.

No restrictions, if you can create it or roleplay it (and it stays within the confines of acceptable Guild Wars 2 Lore), you’re more than welcome at Remnants of Hope. We have an emphasis on letting members RP as they wish, and you are not obligated or required to conform to the guild lore!

FAQ
Q. I’ve been debating about joining many of the guilds I’ve seen. Why do you believe Remnants of Hope stands out among the rest?
A. Remnants of Hope stands out in a variety of ways! One that tends to stand out is the members. All are very welcoming to newer members; many are easy-going, very patient and always happy to help anyone who asks! We encourage the creation of ideas and are always looking on suggestions that can improve the guild as a whole! None go unseen or overlooked! You’ll find no cliques here, as all are welcome and all are accepted with open arms. Our Teamspeak has people on at all hours and always eager to engage in conversation! Our forums have a variety of entertainment, from roleplaying to simple leisure and casual posting, and best of all — Anyone can join in on the experience!

Q. What kind of guild activities are there?
A. We currently have sPvP practice Monday and Thursday nights, Story Mode dungeons on Tuesday nights, WvW on Wednesday nights, and RP event nights on Friday nights at 6pm PST/9pm EST. We also have static groups doing daily explorable dungeons and other PvE events such as scavenger hunts and jumping puzzle races.

Q. Why would you do 14 years age minimum?
A. At Remnants of Hope we believe maturity is based on the way you act, not how old you are. We evaluate you through an application and trial process to assess your character.

Q. How is the Remnants of Hope moderated and ran?
A. The Remnants of Hope operates in a manner that has proven to be the most efficient. The guild itself is ran by an individual member with the rank of High Elder. The High Elder serves as the leader and has overall authority over guild matters. To assist the High Elder in overseeing the guild, there is an elected body whose duty is to help manage and enforce Guild policy when necessary. This group is called the “Elder Council”.

Q. How would I go about advancing in rank within the Remnants of Hope if I joined?
A. Remain active! You can easily get involved with Specialized Departments within the Guild (ie: RP, PVP, Crafting and PVE Department).

Q. Where do I go for additional questions?
A. Post here or in our visitor forums! We’re always open and willing to answering any questions or concerns you may have.

About Us
Remnants of Hope was founded on June 7, 2009. Originally a Star Wars Galaxies guild, it moved to Star Wars: The Old Republic at launch. Well known and respected on the Jung-Ma server, fellow guilds have nothing but good things to say. We are described by our fellow players with comments such as “an honor to play with”, to join us for “the full experience”, “really good at making sure fun and great community are the norm” and “one of the best communities I have known in the game”. [i]

At the request of its members, Remnants of Hope has changed into a multi-gaming guild to accommodate Guild Wars 2. Over the past 3 years we have undergone changes but continue to improve with age and experience. We strive to provide an engaging environment for all players to play the way they want. Currently we have about 10 members playing GW2, with 100 approximately in the guild total.

Mission & Goals
Remnants of Hope stands for a lot of things, truthfully. If our atmosphere shows anything, it shows our integrity, maturity, respect and our very will to survive. Now that last one might seem a bit extreme, but our undying loyalty to our guild and the loyalty shown by many of our members today have risen from the ashes of what would have kept many guilds down! We are ever evolving and ever improving as we continue to age and grow.

What we stand for is to serve as a place where one can escape from their daily struggles and stress of life, to simply enjoy their time that they have to spare. Our motivation is to simply ensure that everyone has the best experience that we can offer! As one of our member’s favorite phrases, “Light from the few can be a beacon to many,” we hope to empower and prove inspiration to many of the guilds within the GW2 community. For us to endure what we’ve been tossed and continue to go strong, we only hope that all of the guilds thrive! Though we may serve as an example, certainly we strive to become better and stronger with each passing day! What do we stand for? Hopefully as a beacon of inspiration to any who join or any who compete, we all have one common goal among us and that is a pleasant gaming experience!

PvX
Remnants of Hope wants to give you the opportunity to build your own playstyle. This means we offer PvE, PvP and RP. The great thing is you can literally play the way you want! Don’t care for PvE but love PvP? Go for it! Not so hot for either PvE or PvP but want to really immerse yourself in your character through roleplay? Not a problem. Whether or not you’re casual, semi-hardcore or hardcore, we’re right there with you. We have dedicated officers for each focus, committed to giving you what you’re looking for. We plan on taking PvP very seriously, and continue to progress in dungeons and new content both competitively, and casually as a community.

We don’t plan on limiting ourselves to one thing that the game has to offer, but all fields that we can conquer as an ever-growing community. Our focus is far from linear like some guilds might be, and we will make the best of everything we’re given! Some will learn much more quickly than others, why not have our members’ help you reach full potential and maximize your enjoyment of the game? So, we have two primary focuses, 1) All aspects of the game, and 2) Your experience both pre- and post-game launch!

Roleplay & Lore
Many years ago, a small bastion in Elona barely escaped, hidden under the oppressive rule of Palawa Joko. It was harsh living in this strict land; a dervish, valiantly protecting his people, a fallen paragon with nothing to her name, and a thief who only cared for himself. Not one of them ever thought they would have to do more than try to get by, until Fate intervened in the form of an unlikely duo- An asura merchant with his Norn protector. Now on the run they must figure out who can be trusted, and how to survive.

You? You are their descendants…or are you? Perhaps you know one of them; a mentor, a friend, perhaps just a passing traveler. The land of Tyria is an incredible one, full of mystery and intrigue (And monsters! Lots of monsters. And gold farmers), just begging to be explored.
