Some ideas for Guilds!

  • So, as we all know, Guilds are coming to Sea of Thieves!
    And I wanted to add some concepts for them that would be addedafter the launch of guilds, as I don’t want any ideas to delay season 10 any further. That being said, let’s begin!

    1. Guild bases
      Ok, so now that guilds have been announced, Guild bases are basically a necessity for Guilds.
      There are two ways I think they could be implemented. The first idea is to Claim cleared-out sea forts, then all your customization trinkets and things would appear at the new hideout. Then the fort would be guarded by guild phantoms, which drop the only key to the vault. (Players part of the guild can open vault without key, items inside vault do not despawn) The second idea is to open up a portal at a tunnel of the damned and go through. You and your crew will then sail into your “hideout of the damned”, with shops, a tavern, and rooms for all of yer mates! (All treasure left behind upon entering tunnel)

    2. Guild uniforms!
      Imagine, a clothing set that changes color depending on your guild colors! Not only this, but maybe it would evolve the more prominent your guild becomes? Perhaps multiple clothing sets for extra customization?

    3. 1% of Guildmate’s Earnings
      This concept is simple. You know how all crewmates get 100% of the loot’s value into their account?
      Well, what if, as part of joining a guild, 1% of all treasure (not rep, just treasure) is taken away from the selling crew BUT 1% of that treasure is given to all other guildmates.

  • I'm hoping a deeper dive shows it having widespread opportunity and appeal for community building

    as of right now (and based on which groups are excited and which aren't) it's got that cool kid's club feel to it and there is already a lot of that in SoT.

    Imo guilds work best by serving people that don't have connections, not just serving the ones that are already connected something else to status farm with.

  • @wolfmanbush Agreed, it has to be a way to make new friends, not just a way for existing friends to farm more.

    As for the OP ideas, no, no and no, sry.

  • I think the last two are already a thing.

  • I would absolutely love a guild base, I want an island I can load in to and see all of the ships pledged to a guild with empty spots for the ships that are already out at sea!

  • Heckin' no to #3 unless we're on the same server. Guilds should not automatically make money for you. Auto Alliances with fellow guild ships maybe, but that would get abused.

    1 yes.
    2 steals from emporium and recolours of non emporium so it's not gonna happen lol.
