What's the point?

Guilds.

This game has them. There are purposes of joining them such as, having people to hang with, help out and raid. Also, prove that your guild can beat the competition (other guilds).

One of the coolest things to do is beat other guilds to content.

So....

What the hell is the point of having a guild if you, your guild, is unable to beat certain content without teaming up with another guild?

1. So you can get the experience of what it takes to do it on your own.

2. Get some loots that you would normally not be able to.

3. Even though the circumstances are not "your guild did it", you still get to say, "Ya, we did that".

Doing this....once or maybe a couple times, I personally think, OK that's cool. But, consistently teaming up with other guilds to do content instead of building your own guild up so you can be known as a bad ass guild who can do this, while others can't, is just lame. It's more than lame, it's flat out wussy crap.

Do yourself a favour if you are going to work together. Merge. Don't be scared, just do it. Stop making yourself look like you suck by needed the help of another guild.

JUST MERGE!

Are you upset because an alliance of guilds won another FTE from your guild?

It's ok OP
it does not affect you in any way how other guilds kill mobs.
Don't be jelly because you have a massive loot line up behind your massive guild roster !

Personally, I would like to see games accommodate merc guilds ^^ Small bands of überness that can help YOU tackle content normally out of reach... For a small fee ^^

Sounds like the A-Team a few years ago.

Trust me when I say BDA, we get a lot of loots and people get all worked up over it. I'm proud of that. As for winning FTEs, good for you and good for us.

Don't avoid the subject focus here.

JUST MERGE

Oh and Gimpatron, doesn't need to merge. They are already have a name for their alliance.

Guild and raid leaders, along with the brown nosing officers they employ typically take the role on because at one level or another they enjoy the power trip or in some cases, as with some raiding guilds, they get to look after their pals first...and keep new members well away from the precious pixels (after all Soandso has been in the guild for YEARS, his 6th alt deserved that item over the new member on his main)

Anyone know of any guilds like that?

I've never been an officer in an EQ guild, or WoW or anything else...its more fun to just enjoy the game you're playing without all the politics and drama.

Dunno what guild this is directed at. But I really have no idea where this comes from. I've never been part of a guild that has done this. Not on Live not in other games and not on P99. I joined BDA at the start of Velious and I've already gotten quite a bit of loot /shrug

HOWEVER back to RNF shitposting. I find it HILARIOUS that 3 different guilds all of which have enough members to do their own raids somehow find it necessary to do 2-3 way joint raids just to compete with BDA. THEN have the sack to come to RNF and boast about their multi guild zerg kills and imply they are a "tier" ahead because of it. Yikes guys. Seriously yikes.
