Hey! No worries about the rambling lol. My best advice I can offer is to look for a strong guild with a similar GP and values/playstyles to yours and just keep at it. Some gear you can only earn from guild events---same with character shards. Some characters do have shards available in the store, but you need specific guild event currency (earned from Territory Wars, Battles, raids, etc.) to buy them. If you're free to play, those are gonna be the main sources, but if you spend a bit here and there, then every once in a while you might see event-specific character bundles show up in the store (like Wat Tambor or Ki Adi Mundi). In recent years, CG added the lightspeed bundles for Galactic Legends and other journey guide units. Depending on whether or not you spend money, these are gonna shave years off your grind. The biggest caveat, however, is that while you'll have most of the units needed to unlock GLs or all the units needed for certain high tier journey guides, you'll be behind on unlocking their zeta abilities. That said, the lightspeed bundles are hands down the best option if you're okay with spending.
When it comes to finding a guild, I think the most important thing would be to keep up on which squads/units are important for raids and TB. I know it's often preferred to farm for the characters you like the most, but prepping your roster with the units needed for high-end guild rewards will set your roster apart from the rest and will definitely help snag a spot if that's the direction that guild is going.
In the end though, I think it's most important to consider what you're lookin for. This game is a non-stop grind, and many get burnt out, especially if they lose sight of why they picked it up to begin with. If you enjoy grinding out farms and critical guild units, look for a guild that suits that playstyle. If you like to take it easy, then find a guild that is less competitive and in it for the ride. In this way, the guild you join has a huge impact on what you get out of the game. The earlier you find one that fits your playstyle, the better off you'll be in the end; and you'll end up making a bunch of friends along the way. Also, don't be afraid to leave a guild if it no longer suits your playstyle. Take the time to find ur forever home, learn the basics of Discord, get into the recruitment servers, maybe play around with some of the Discord bots so you have something else that sets you apart from the rest, and I guarantee your experience will be far better in the "end."
That was great info. Thank you very much. I am a f2p player but I spend my crystals on refreshes and am farming my characters to get them up. I am really stuck I can't progress much right now. But I will look for a guild that is f2p and will accept me at my 811k gp. Just leveled up a couple of ships. I just got my ship challenge done so i can get my weekly zeta mats. I will eventually get one of my guys to gear 13 it's just going to take a lot of refreshes.
Of course!! And honestly, imo, being stuck is a good thing in this game. Bein stuck = direct insight into which area of your roster needs improvement. You knew you needed to finish ship challenges to get a constant stream of zetas and now that that's out of the way you can keep makin progress towards your next goal, whether it's getting ur first G13/relic character or finishing a full squad's zeta abilities. Keep on moving the goalpost with each small victory and take it all in along the way.
Also, you can definitely look for a free to play guild, but from what I've seen most are a mix of both and very few are explicitly p2w; so it might be tough to find a guild that says they're solely f2p (and even if you do find one that says they're f2p, odds are there's a few minnows in there spending a few bucks every now and again). Most guilds care much more about consistency in hitting ur dailies and meeting their set expectations in various guild events than they do goin all out in the store. Ask any seasoned veteran of this game and you'd be hard-pressed to find a single one tell you they'd rather have the one who whales out but doesn't contribute or is inconsistent in their contributions over the one who always shows up when it counts. I'd take a lower GP, f2p player who's always contributing to guild events, helping out, and doing their best over the former any day of the week. In that way, you wanna make sure whatever guild you join is within reach of what you're able to contribute. Some guilds are f2p, some p2w, but all guilds are about members' individual contributions.
I've been an officer for almost my entire time playin this game and am just recently a GL, and I can tell you from experience that things run smoother when everyone's on the same page—if you have too many who can't fully participate with the rest, the might feel upset about not bein able to contribute even though they're doin their best with the roster they have (i.e., "guild fit"); if you have too many who aren't able to use the full extent of their rosters because the guild isn't able to collectively meet a goal (like unlocking planets in TB), then it's likely a matter of time before they find the guild that's at their level, unless they're loyal to the guild that helped them reach that level ("member loyalty"). There's a lotttt of things that go into it, but as long as ur doin what you can with what you have, and you have leadership that understands that and still helps you push forward, then that's there's a good guild.
