Everyone?

Not hardly. I haven't been in a guild which helped me obtain even a single item in at least a couple years now, and even before I always preferred obtaining most my stuff myself. I refuse to join a guild that uses any sort of DKP on general principle. EQ's not simply about pixels for some folks. Step back and take a breath, and don't let the pixel sickness claim you.

Ok I guess I should have qualified raid guild (ie. the type you need to do epic raid encounters). Obviously no one joins Dial a Port or family guilds for the phat lewtz [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I think what a lot of unguilded people don't realize is that guilds are EQ's natural selfishness channeling mechanism. Everyone in a guild is selfish [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Everyone joins the guild to get gear for their character. Sure they might become friends and do things to help each other outside of raids from time to time, but they don't go to raids for the "fun" or for the "community": they go for the DKP (raid points) and loot (purchased with those DKP).

This is so cynical and goes against everything I play MMOs for...it is also probably true for most guilds and most players.

I haven't joined another guild on p99 since Divinity left...and I'll tell you that most of the folks in that guild were not playing in it out of a drive for DKP.

... but I suspect you'll want other gear improvements after that, and what better way to get it than to stick around?

^ Is how I was in Anonymous for 5+ years.

5 50+ toons most with their epics. 2-3 of them (still) camped in Sky for the fun loot up there.
Anonymous is a great group of people. But any casual guild will likely be a good fit for you.
Just make it clear that your play times are limited and sporadic.

Unguided so I feel I'll end up having to MQ my epic. Anyone have advice on making coin as a cleric? It's been a bit hard to solo much that isn't undead.

Cleric is a terrible char for this. Make a mage or druid porting to farm the pp.

Shelve your toon for a month. Make a mule in tunnel, transfer all your pp to him. Tunnel quest with a vengeance until your at 50k

It's annoying advice but I'd probably start an alt to grind up. By your 30's with a monk or pet class you can farm FS. By your 40's you can kill hill giants. Having an alt is fun besides the farming benefit. There will be times you want to play but don't have time to group or can't find one; that's where the solo class comes in handy.

If not a farming type I would just keep leveling up. Eventually you will be in groups and win some rolls. Just have restraint on not buying silly weird crap you cannot resell. You will eventually have the liquidity for your sparkle hammer [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

I've actually seen a few level 60 enchanters farming stuff with clerics in their 40s. It's not ideal for them, but it's better than no Complete Heal at all!
