Guilds need to be reworked
They were a good idea but its execution is where it falls short. Firstly players have to choose between salvaging or upgrading their gear. As you play through cities to earn small boxes it gets harder. Which means you need to keep your gear up to date but how can you do that if you need to contribute large amounts of xp to your guild every season. Now this would not have been as much of a problem if that update a couple years ago that substantially increased the xp needed to the next level of each gear was never implemented.
Most guilds have minimum salvaging requirements which basically alienates a lot of players. Not everyone has time to sit on their phone for hours playing 10-11 cities per day. Additionally it sad to see so many new players being shut out of it solely because they will never be able to get through cities fast enough contribute and get the good rewards. I see time and time people getting kicked out of their guild because they didn’t salvage a ridiculous amount by day 2.
I understand that joining one is optional, however making it so that mythic gear excluding rings and necklaces can only be obtained from guild boxes takes away the notion of it being optional. There needs to be other ways to get mythic armour. Eatventure is a great game so I truly hope the Devs really take a step back and really look at how the guild feature can be improved.
