Ive been looking for guilds for a while now (tier 2 is turning me inside out at the moment) because I had enough of playing the lone wolf. I mean, I like being a lone wolf down in the clockworks, but I should have at least some group or friends to turn to when im not or in trouble. the problem is, I couldnt find a decent group yet, so I turn to you guys.

what group do you think would best suit me? here are my traits.

-full 3 to 4 star calibur armor.

-ascended calibur

-has a knack for solving problems.

-very friendly and respectful, but will rebel when told to do something he knows is wrong.

-will keep fighting, even at low health

- defeated the snarbolax on his own. twice.

- beat the arena on his own. 3 times.

Try looking through the guild

Try looking through the guild threads in the guild section. They usually have applications there.

Well, I feel it's something

Well, I feel it's something you have to look into yourself. What you posted is "generic", not saying it as a bad thing, but those are qualities that just about every guild wants with it's member base.(Or at least, I hope most guilds would want these things from their member base.) They're not really special.

A guild would want a strong player.(Although, Snarbolax and Arenas aren't too difficult. Depends on the arena though...)

Guilds want players that will keep on fighting, even if the outcome is bleak. They want them to keep on fighting to the best of their abilities.

(MOST) Guilds always want to try to have a friendly user base. Makes them look good in front of other players and (hopefully) keeps conflicts within the guild to a minimum.

3*-4* armor shows that the player has been committed to grind for their equipment.(Such as getting the energy and recipes needed to craft up the gear.) So that's kinda good, since it shows that they're least likely to "fall off the face of the Earth" and never log on again.

Having smarts to figure out problems is always nice to have.

You see, what you have is good, but it's generic. It's what all guilds want. There's not really anything "defining" for any particular guild. That's why I said to check out the guilds' threads and see what they have to offer. Maybe do some runs with a particular guild to get to know them better, to see if that guild's community is right for you. Because, honestly, who knows your wants better than yourself?

EDIT: You want something serious? Casual? There's plenty of guilds that offer different experiences, and well, what you posted currently doesn't really say much what you want from a guild.

IMO...

Don't get a guild. You will be stronger in the long run for it.

I know that.

Im still a young blood to guilds and social groups. I just......I need support. even though I can and usually do, I dont want to journey the clockworks alone. I......I need a friend I can trust. also, I do have something that probably isnt generic.

I am An INCREDIBLE fighter. I can hold my own against almost any thing or anyone. Im also a giver of advice. Im VERY friendly to noobs. even beggers.

Easy, Aurora

Hey there, on the guild forum is the recruiting thread for Aurora. I won't put up an advert or anything but Aurora is a great community of players who are interested in and actively help players of all walks. I mean it, not just a claim. It's a challenge to log in and not find folks on who are fun talk to and willing to help. Check us out!

Wait, if T2 should not be

Wait, if T2 should not be killing you when you have 3-4* armor, and Snarby is easy solo for anyone over 1* armor. I've actually done that run solo with proto for fun, and I have the same level gear as you. Are you sure you know how to dodge and hit? All that stuff you put up there wouldn't make me want to accept you into my guild...

Do join a guild. There is no

Do join a guild. There is no advantage to only being a lone wolf. As it turns out, you can still do solo runs while in a guild.
Really, the only scenario in which you would be worse off for being in a guild would be if you had to pay to be in the guild, for no benefit.
Most of the time at the very least a guild will mean that you are more likely to delve into the clockworks with familiar knights. At the very least. If you find a good guild, you'll have people helping you become a better player so that you can help others in turn.
Plus free rides to the second half of a Teir are always nice. Just as long as you start some parties yourself for guildmates to join.

You sound a bit like me. I am

You sound a bit like me. I am the creator of Sacred Order. We are a T2/3 guild with active players. I would not mind having you. Remember, you can quit at any time if you want. In my guild, there are three guild masters including me, who I am sure would not mind helping you with anything like recommendations for which armour to buy - trust me, I have seen the whole guild community ask and answer questions on guild chat. I bet you hardly anyone knows that I once joined the guild Online (until now I have said it) - it is the guild my friend owns.

Just remember - you can quit anytime.

Another guild you would probably like join is The Risen. It is the only other guild I have been in.

EDIT: Just seen that Belkira has said Aurora. I have not been in that guild but you should check it out.

This seems to be a problem of wanting to have something offered to you. Really, check out the guilds in recruitment section. Find one that you would like. If you don't like them, leaving is always free.

That isn't a great list of accomplishments. Nothing much in this game is a great one, to be honest with you. Soloing bosses has been done, and doing them in suboptimal gear is just a test of persistence. Soloing shadow lairs could be one, but thats a long way off.

Even with low level armor,

Even with low level armor, you shouldn't be getting destroyed in T2. Just something to think about.

Guilds

Isn't there a guild called Lone Wolf?

Anyways! If you can find a good guild with people that sensible and active, then it can dramatically help you. For example, no sane person would randomly say "Lets do a Shadow Lair run now!" to a group of strangers. With a guild (especially with the members that you know), you can ask around in order to assemble a team. A lot of the late-game players would also (most likely) have connections with other late-game players, allowing you to get the best of the best, without feeling like a lead weight tied to the team.

@ Sparksterg

What I find useful in you is this:

"-has a knack for solving problems.

-very friendly and respectful, but will rebel when told to do something he knows is wrong.

-will keep fighting, even at low health"

Even though we have many T3 players, but those T3 players used to be T2 players. I look at what people are at the moment, but I also look at what potential people have.

BUT, do get Wolver set and lv it up to Vog set for when you reach Vana. Vog set is my first 5* set, and I had no problem lving it up in the clockworks. I know that you may not need Vog set for Vana, I mean I have 2 5* weapons with a 3* shield and 3/4* armour/helmets and I had no problem defeating Vana except being against the beast himself despite the fact I had a purple eye on the last/second last level before vana himself.
