Quick Context
I joined a welcoming guild named FREE ENERGY DEVICE as a noob player in December 2021. They warmly welcomed me even though I hadn't much to contribute. Today, I would like to give back by helping the guild upgrade its Store to Level 2.
I don’t see myself going to another guild even though it might offer me more benefits. I would rather try to slowly help the guild that gave me a chance when I was still trying to figure out this game. So, getting our Store to Level 2 would allow us to unlock Gladius Cases.
P-Paul, A Generous Member
But wait… Our guild’s store is already at Level 2?! Yes, this week, a generous member carried most of the load to level up our guild’s store. I would like to give back to this member (@p-paul) a chunk of his contributions. I've already sent him a Chaos Legion pack as a little "thank you", but if I can give back a bit more, that would be great!
The Experiment
This experiment has been in part inspired by @rentmoney’s awesome giveaways.
So, here is the deal:
Half of the liquid Hive that this post will be able to generate will go to one of you. I’ll send the other half to @p-paul.
Participating in this giveaway is quite simple:
1. Upvote this post to grow the pie
2. Leave your IGN in the comment section below
Honestly, I don’t know how much this post will be able to generate as I don’t have many followers, but whatever the amount, half will be yours.
Result in a week: Sunday, the 15th of May (2022)
A Short Guide to find your first Guild
In order to give back to the community, I also wanted to provide a quick guide to newcomers looking for a guild.
Open Guilds
In the Guild section, you will be able to filter between the different types of guilds. As a newcomer, your best chance will probably be with one of the OPEN guilds.
This is actually how I found mine.
Main Benefits
DEC Bonus
One of the obvious benefits of Guilds is the DEC bonus you can get after each win in the Battle mode.
Merits, but with a Level 1 Store
Another one is to earn Merits, which will allow you to buy Gladius Cases. Merits are Virtual Credits that can only be used in the Guild Store.
Caveat:
You’ll be able to collect Merits only after leveling up your Store to Level 1.
Gladius Cases, but with a Level 2 Store
Gladius Cases are packs of cards that can only be used in Brawls (= Guilds battles).
Those cards can’t be sold, however, they still have a DEC burn value, which counts towards your overall Collection Power.
Caveat:
You’ll be able to purchase Gladius Cases only after leveling up your Store to Level 2.
A Win / Win Situation
With this post, I would like to try creating a win/win situation for all of us.
We will see how it goes!
Cheers!
