So just wanted to know how everyone is feeling about the state of there guilds. I am seeing a large number of guilds looking not for just 1 or 2 members but groups of players. I know our Guild lost 3 members this last week as they decided they need time away from the game. Time ill tell how long they stay away. I know as an officer it is getting harder and harder to recruit at the level we need. We can get lower players but they would not be able to help us in Geo TB and would probably hurt us in TW. I mean we would love to bring in 5 or 6 good players but it is not happening. i mean maybe if some smaller guilds broke up moving groups of there players to 3 or 4 guilds it would help some of this but the idea of breaking up a guild is a non starter to most. So any thoughts? anything that can be done? does anyone even want anything done?

Lost 5 members all due to Relics and all 4.4 GP +, and more if light side Geo isn’t great or some great content doesn’t get announced soon... a lot of 200k+ Guilds are hurting

225M 29* Geo guild, lost two major players so far. Overall mood is a bit depressing right now.

It's more an issue of pride than an actual problem. There are plenty of guild with 43-47 members and new guilds are opening every day. I every 10th guild of similar capacity (there are hundreds even of 200m+ guilds) broke up (possibly within an alliance, if the problem is staying together with friends), the problem would be solved, but as long as everyone insists on keeping their guild there won't be a solution.Unless your guild has a strong enough status to attract a surplus of new candidates, of course.

We lost 8 players because of relics. People either quit or joined more relaxed guilds. Staying competitive became more expensive when relics dropped.

My previously 220GP Top 50 TW guild lost 3 right after the TB ended, and they all cited Relics.Another 2 officers have been discussing it pretty consistently enough that it's difficult to dismiss.The idea of new Relic only abilities furthering the distance between players and guilds has demoralized them...and we haven't been able to fill a single one of our shortages yet.We've never gone more than hours without replacing someone.

Start an alt. I'm not even joking.

Lots and lots of simming.

wow you started them so close together. I do not know how you guys do it. 1 account takes up too much of my time to have more. Plus there is a small piece of me that does not want to increase CG's stats making them think they are bringing in more new players.

There was a lot less to do back then, and I don't bother with the alts as much. I started the last one just to see how much of a difference your shard entry point made in your progression (timing shard creation was a thing back then - spoiler; a really big difference). Never really raided all that much with the alts. It's a good chance to just farm what you want to farm.

I like this quote this is what I log in to do as well. The boredom from the same teams literally stops movement.

I knew the lack of competitiveness and diversity aka revan teams would backfire.

But the dark revan which makes revan useless seems to top the cake.

Why would anyone be quitting? Isn’t adding another tedious grind to an already tedious grind of a game fun and exciting??!!! Everyone cries for new content and they just added gear 14,15,16,17,18,19, and 20 but call them “relics”.....that’s new content right?? Right??!!!! ???‍♂️

We lost 4.... but I think they were losing interest after 3+ years anyway, the changes in game just acted as the catalyst. Participation in chat rooms - or lack of - told me they were heading in that direction months ago.
We had no problem filling back up with hungry and enthusiastic members at the 200M GP range. I think a guild or three packed it in and the refugees have bolstered the guilds that stayed focus. Those sorts of shifts are necessary and sometimes need a push to get going too.

It would be kind of cool if CG put in place an in-game forced consolidation. Your guild drops to 20 it gets gobbled up by a guild that rose to 30. Be kinda like that movie Mortal Engines
