If you’re looking for a great guild to join, The Elders have two spots open. We get 40k seals on mythic weeks, and usually complete weekly tasks. We are often in the in game chat with discussion of strategies for weekly events and other aspects of the game (optional Discord too). Our requirements are not difficult at all: 600 seals, 60k gold. (Most of us do contribute much more than that). If you’re a newer player, you don’t need to worry about gold contributions. You can focus on leveling up your kingdoms first.
Even if you don’t join us, I’d like to point out to anyone not in a guild that it makes a huge difference to be in a good guild. When I started the game, I took a long time to join a good guild, and I was missing out on a ton of rewards for all of that time.
