Your Guild Just Got Better!



[h2]Your guild has become a lot more interactive with new features![/h2]
Guillermo the Guild Representative is in Battleon to help you get familiar with guilds. He’s got the answers to your basic questions regarding guilds, but in this post we’re going to dive a little deeper into the details. Guild Leaders can provide guild boosts, members can help get their guild to the top of the leaderboard, and more! Plus, you’ve got a week of double gold rewards to celebrate.
 
[h2]A Guide to Guilds[/h2]
If you already know the basics, feel free to jump to the bottom where we have listed “Just the Features Please”.



[h2]Starting a Guild is Easy![/h2]
Open the game menu and click on the Guild button. If you are not already in a guild, you will see a short description of how to create a Guild Name and Guild Tag. Then you must pay 10,000 Gold to complete the guild creation. If your Guild Name and/or Tag has not been used already, your guild is complete and you are now a Guild Leader.



[h2]Grow Your Guild[/h2]
Click on a player’s nameplate and choose “Send Guild Invite”. This sends them an immediate invitation to join your guild. If they choose Yes, they are added as proud members of your guild. Guild Invites can be turned off in the game Settings, so make sure the player has your consent before you invite them! Now, invite your friends to join your Guild and watch it grow!



[h2]Guild Menu[/h2]
While you are part of a Guild, clicking the Guild Icon will take you to the Guild Menu. This shows you:
  • Guild Name
  • Guild Info (? button)
  • Guild Shop (Guild Leader only) - NEW
  • Guild Leaderboard button - NEW
  • Guild Level and XP progress in Level - NEW
  • List of Guild Members (icons denote rank; Guild Leader / Officer / Member)
  • Guild Tax % - NEW
  • Edit Guild Tax % button (Guild Leader only) - NEW


Guild Member List also displays each member's "last online", a highly requested feature. Options for interacting with individual members are also here, such as Whisper, Invite, Summon etc. Guild Leaders and Officers have additional permissions such as Demote, Promote or Kick. Just click on the members name to interact.

Guild Leaders can update the guild details from the Guild Info (?) button and update the MOTD (message of the day). Other members can click on the (?) button to see the MOTD as well as other details or to Leave the Guild.

[h3]Additional Details on Guild Taxes and Boosts[/h3]
Guild Taxes apply to all members including the Guild Leader. The taxed gold is deducted automatically from all gold that your guild members receive while playing. This gold goes into the Guild Fund which the Guild Leader uses to purchase Guild Powers to give the whole guild a temporary boost. Guild Leaders purchase boosts from the Guild Shop (Toolbox icon) which appears for all of the Guild Members as an incon above their hotbar just like a regular boost/buff.

[h2]Just the Features Please![/h2]
Here’s a quick review of the features in a simplified format for those who already know the basics.

[h3]Guild Leader Features[/h3]
  • Manage Guild Funds and Tax Rates (% of Gold earned that goes to the Guild - maximum 50%)
  • Guild Shop (Buy temporary boosts for your Guild members! Boosts are unlocked by Guild Level)
  • Edit Message of the Day
  • Demote, Promote or Kick Members

[h3]General Guild Features[/h3]
  • Last Online Date for Each Member (or Green Dot if currently online)
  • Guild Level and Experience (XP earned by the players contributes to Guild Levels)
  • Leaderboards (see rankings of Guilds by level and XP)
  • Guild Currency and Taxes (gold earned by members can now be "taxed" by the Guild Leader to contribute to Guild Funds)



[h2]Gold Boost![/h2]
Enjoy a week long gold boost as we end the month and celebrate the new Guild improvements. Get double the gold rewards while you slay monsters and complete quests only! Also, check out our latest post about
all the things you can do to keep the Talk Like a Pirate Day celebrations going and rake in the gold on your pirate adventures!



[h2]Pirate Siege 3v3 Improvements[/h2]

  • Siege Tokens are now Token items and Ship Supplies for the battle can now be simply purchased instead of requiring a Quest Turnin.
Siege Rewards:
  • Plundered Goods and Plundered Hoard are now updated to be Token Items.
  • Materials needed for crafting Siege Gear can now be purchased with these Tokens instead of crafted (Pirate Goods)
  • Drops of Plundered Goods increased 5x to match the old bulk crafting amounts.
  • Dye shop added to Crabby for easier access.
  • Tailoring Dyes are now simply purchased with Daily Boss Trophies
  • Daily Boss Trophies are now Tokens

[h2]Last Chance[/h2]
  • Gold Boost ends around October 4th, 2023
  • The September promo ends soon! Get your Sea Dog's Falchion when you buy more DragonCrystals from the Upgrade Shop this month.
  • Talk Like a Pirate Day 2023 Collection and Captain Crisp will be leaving around October 11th, 2023


[h2]Thank you and… Next![/h2]

The Search for the Cosmic Pauldrons



[h2]Loremaster Hazel is on the case![/h2]
Loremaster Hazel has some information about the next item: the Cosmic Pauldrons. Return to the Loremaster’s Lodge across from Yulgar’s Inn to get started. She will be excited to share what she's learned!

[h2]Researching the Cosmic Raiment[/h2]
Investigate the lairs of terrifying monsters and navigate mystical glens for more clues on Hazel’s research. This third piece is called the Cosmic Pauldrons. Once you have obtained all of the materials, you will be able to piece together your Cosmic item. If you so choose, you may ‘awaken’ its Epic power through collecting additional materials.

Note: If you are still working on piecing together the Garment or Wrap, check out the Research Crystal on Hazel’s desk. It’ll help get you back to the locations where you found the crafting materials for your item.

[h2]

The Cosmic Pauldrons[/h2]
Begin researching the third piece of the raiment by choosing the “Unearthing the Raiment” option when you talk to Hazel in the Loremaster's Lodge. Don’t forget to take your trusty Cosmic Companion along with you, so you can Turn In and Accept your quests while you’re away from Battleon.

[h2]Additional Cosmic Quests[/h2]
When you have completed the current questline, you can Accept a Tangled Skein daily quest. These quests allow you to gather additional Threads for crafting all of the Cosmic items.
Meanwhile, you can also Accept the repeatable “Gathering the Threads” quests to earn Threads specific to a certain item. The repeatable quests give you less Threads but you can do the quest as many times as you want in one day.



[h2]New Additions to the 2023 Talk Like a Pirate Day Collection![/h2]
Since you loved these little guys so much, we added their alternate forms to the Collection. You can now choose to have Macawliday and Rapscallion as either a travel form or a pet… or both!
 
[h2]Last Chance[/h2]
Zephyrath has left the Social District and the double Samurai Class Tokens boost has ended.
  • Talk Like a Pirate Day 2023 Collection and Captain Crisp will be leaving around October 11th, 2023

 
[h2]Thank you and… Next![/h2]
Guilds are getting their highly anticipated update soon! Your guild will become a lot more interactive with tons of new features!

See you in game and… Battle On!
