Guilds in Ashes of Creation are still pre-alpha design that will need testing and feedback from the community.
Guild membership
- Players can only be a member of a single guild.[1]
- Alts on the same Account can join different guilds.[1]
- Intrigue, espionage and intelligence gathering is a legitimate aspect of the game.
Guild progression
Guilds can focus on niche progression or opt to grow in size.[2]
- Membership slots can be traded off for advantages.
- Guild alliances may be a key part in creating a larger “guild”.
- The progression system will include guild quests.
- Guilds will participate in the development of the world via accomplishments.[3]
Guild size
There are mechanics that are geared towards larger and smaller guilds.[2]
- Larger guilds can siege fortresses.
- Larger guilds won’t have access to power boosting guild ability slots.
- Small groups can do some things better than larger groups.
- Sieges will have things that smaller groups have an advantage in.
Guild alliances
Due to the lack of fast-travel, guilds will need have to plan to have people in the right place at the right time. Alliances with other guilds will help enable that.[2]
Zergs
Zergs are empowered by fast-travel. Meaningful travel times will prevent zerg play for being so much of an influence.[2]
