Our whole server, seems like every guild (or a lot of them), all lost our guild xp and were demoted to rank 1 just now on Lightbringer.



Hope they fix it!

Looks like the XP might be the same, but we dropped a rank? Not sure... still hoping it's a bug!

We have decided to remove the added bonus of gaining Guild Experience from Guild Achievements earned. This change will realign Guild Achievements with our philosophy held for normal Achievements, which are intended to be predominantly their own reward (barring the rare exception of special achievements that grant an additional reward.) Previously, the experience reward had been seen as an additional side bonus and not something that should have been significantly skewing the advancement of guilds. During the beta, we greatly increased leveling speed across the board and since most characters were copied from templates, guild experience from Achievements didn’t seem imbalanced. It has become clear that an imbalance does exist and should be addressed to ensure that guilds progress at the rates expected within the daily Guild Experience limits.

For guilds that are currently above the normally possible experience limit, we will be readjusting it back to the expected limit once more. This will not affect Guild Reputation gains at this point in time.

Hrm. So how exactly do you gain guild xp then? Just questing, raiding and Pvping together?

I believe what this means, correct me if I'm wrong, is that small guilds that cannot get raid achievements aren't relatively "penalized"?


I think I'm in shock. That's a pretty even-handed approach to creating an equal-starting line.


I think that says that guilds will level on what they are doing, not what they can do...

That's how I read it as well. Basically all guilds start at zero.
