GUILD MERGE


Psyborg

Recommended Posts

Hello developers,

After the release of guilds in warspear, many guilds have flourished while others have failed or stay relatively weak. Hence they end up selling guilds, etc. But this only changes leadership and not the actual guild condition. As guilds will get more and more max levels, the lower level guilds will disappear, all the hard work wasted.

The main idea of my suggestion is to allow two guilds to merge and become one. Following are some points related to the challenges of guild merge:
 Let's say we have guild A and guild B who would like to merge. The resultant guild is say C. Also the leaders of the merging guilds can choose which guild will dissolve and merge into which guild. For eg: guild B can dissolve and merge into guild A. The dissolving guild must be less than or equal to the level of the other guild. The dissolving guild as you will see will have to make certain sacrifices.

- What happens to all the guild members from A and B?
 All the guild members other than the leader of A and leader of B lose their guild slots. And the two old leaders now become the leader and the heir (more on how in the next point). The reason to kick all members is the size issue. When you merge (say) lvl 5 guild with lvl 5 guild, you cannot fit 100 members in the resultant guild. Hence it is the leaders' choice of A and B to later on invite their members of the guild.

 

- Who gets the leader of the new merged guild?

 Now this suggestion by all means is for the guilds and the leaders who trust each other. So with that assumption, the merging guild leader stays the leader and the dissolving guild leader gets Heir role automatically.

- What will be the level of the new merged guild?
 The motive behind merging guilds is to help low level guilds get another chance. Hence it is obvious that the level of the new merged guild will be equal to the greater of level of A or B. Eg: if A is lvl 5 and B is lvl 2. Then C will be lvl 5. If A = B = lvl 4, then C = lvl 4.

- What happens to all the hard work?! The guild points and the skills and the unity signs and the gold for skill level up!

 All the gp that the two guilds have collected will be summed up. So if A had 100k gp and B had 50k gp, then C will have 150k gp.

 When guild C is formed, all the active and passive skills of the dissolved guild will be lost but the gp, gold and unity signs will be refunded to the original leader of the dissolving guild as a message in the inbox. To introduce some loss, developers can either introduce a % loss to the refunds (more on cost of merge in later points).

 

- What happens to the warehouse gold and warehouse items and the warehouse slots?

 The warehouse gold of the dissolving guild gets summed up with the other guilds gold. All the warehouse items are lost! (WARNING). And all the expanded slots of the warehouse are refunded to the respective leaders as guild bags in the inbox.

 

- Guild achievements, tournament ratings, etc?

 The dissolving guild loses all of its tournament ratings (if any).

 

- Cost of guild merge?

 The developers can make the cost affordable so that almost all guilds which are in need of a second chance can make it happen. Guild merge will cost certain amount of gold and unity signs. Appropriate mechanisms to initiate a guild merge and pay its cost can be discussed here. When the dissolved guild leader gets the refunds, developers could introduce (say) a 10% loss in the refunds. Overall it should be fair and affordable.

- Who can merge guilds? Will it be unfair if high level guilds bought off low level guilds under the merge pretext for easy gp?
 I believe the whole decision to dissolve and merge with the other guild is in the hands of the guild leader. Hence it wont be unfair. Any guild looking to merge can merge. Hence effectively using the gp from the dissolving guild to build a stronger guild.

 

- How many times can a guild merge with the other guild?

 Any guild which wants to merge with the dissolving guild can merge at most 11 - n times, where n is the guild level of the main guild. For eg: guild A is level 6, it can merge with other guilds for at most 11 - 6 = 5 times. As long as it is level 6. When it goes to level 7, it can merge at most 11 - 7 = 4 times and so on. A level 10 guild can only merge once. Any guild > 10 cannot merge with any other guild.

 

 - Some other obvious points

 Sentinels can only merge with sentinel guilds, legion can only merge with legion guilds.
The name of the merged guild, its level, skills and leader do not change.

 


Thats all folks! I hope you like this suggestion. Let's discuss! Any feedback is appreciated.

A very well made topic. My best wishes. But I will be honest, I am not sure at all if such thing is technically possible :/

Thank you.

 

I felt that resources in this game such as guild points are not being used efficiently and are going a waste.
Hope that the developers will take this into consideration as a future update.
