2.1 Preview - Guilds

if they already bothered to make a 4-mythics check to guild chests, surely they could use it for the disenchant feature, so maybe this is in?

I suspect we will adapt at the top to ask for, say 300K by Tuesday from all members, and then leave it open.

Yes, it probably does add some more aggravation for our guild leaders, but how many guild hit the 16M? 10 of us?

I suspect our requirements will start focusing more on the “Guild Seals By” so that the guild chests max out, along with the trophies.

Heck, I worry that now people can see I play some treasure maps!

Love what I’m seeing in the update but one thing I was expecting to see but was missing (or I missed it in the video) was improved inter-guild communication. I was expecting something like private messaging, guild wide announcements or improved notifications for the existing systems (something like a number over the chat icon indicating the number of guild messages since you last checked guild chat). Is any of this (or something similar) making its way into 2.1?

While I love the improvements, being able to effectively communicate with my guildmates in-game has been on my wish list for almost 2 years now so I’ve got my fingers-crossed!

As long as you could specify only mass-disenchant those cards that are already Mythic, I’m on board for this, too.

That will be whenever they add the friends list. :wink:

Lol I don’t need it to make friends (I’m a hermit!), as a guild leader I want it so I can communicate directly to individual guildmates for guild related ass whoopings. :wink:

Probably been answered already. If not… It seems like they have clumped the top guilds and averaged them out. There is then an average 23% reduction, obviously if you are multiples of that average then your percentage drop increases dramatically

That’s… worrying. Very worrying.

Then again we can extrapolate how much ‘less’ we get from any recorded weekly stats (we in MM are well taken care of on that score). So if we’re putting in 20mil, we know we’re going to be getting 16mil, that means we’re down 20% (but also put in 4mil less).

@Sirrian, I see that purple totem give additionnal souls, does this affect the player’s soul multiplier or is it applied on souls collected during the battle (meaning it wouldn’t allow you to get more souls if you already hit the soul cap during battle)

I’d also have to ask if the guild task soul bonuses being boosted and the statue soul modifier are the culmination of the plan to make Valk less required for so much of the game. As it stands, they simply wouldn’t be enough.

We see the same players from top guilds in pvp day after day. They will get the same guild task skill bonuses . So thats really nullified.
I dont see the gain with the new system wit those.

I have quite a few questions.

  1. What are MAXIMUM possible glory key, & gems per week now?
    The rewards seem static and not randomized so if I don’t hear about it in this topic, I am sure that one of the top guilds will know first reset.

  2. How will this affect guild donations?
    I assume new minimums will be based on guild seals & trophies. But whats to stop the top guilds from having 2-5 mil donators effectively locking out people from donating gold? I imagine the new requirements will have to modeled in such a fashion that minimum required donation is 300k gold by end of reset day then the rest is in the air.

  3. Guild Seals, exactly how many guild seals is each guild key? As it stands this should help make the glory/gem loss SLIGHTLY less painful, but exactly how many guild keys could you effectively buy per week assuming you hit 1500 each week? My guess, 10 per key, which would mean you get 150 guild keys a week.

Those are my initial questions, more will come up I’m sure.

@Sirrian can I get an answer on my question above? How long will bonus from 1 series of tasks last?

  1. Dunno yet

  2. That’s an internal Guild issue, nothing with development

  3. Keys are 20 Seals a piece

I realize it’s an internal guild issue, but I was curious what guild leaders were thinking towards this. It is a discussion topic after all.

Thanks for number three as I must have missed that, so 75 only :frowning:

You can buy more. Paid-for Mythics are a thing now.

Or even something where you can click something to show timestamps. I’m forever wondering how long it’s been since I missed a guild message.

So am I right in my understanding of seals and guild chests:
1500 Limit (Multiply by 30 guildmates gives you the 45,000 needed for the best guild chest)
None left for guild keys unless you buy them…

Not everyone is in a top guild. I routinely see players from the t10 in PvP. I expect they’ll have all the bonuses pretty much all the time, and I will not.

The gain with the new system could show as increased wins on defense for guilds keeping their bonuses up every week.
