(Suggestions) Guild Features

Hestia

Hi. At the moment the current guild system is very horrible and it would be great to see improvements in the next patch. Was expecting something better during release but this doesn't seem to be put attention to by the devs.

Core Priorities:

• Custom guild ranks and allowing us to drag/drop/reorder them.
• FIX the permissions. Even when allowing the member rank to deposit and disallowing withdraw, it prevents them from completely utilizing the bank (deposit). This also goes for the Recruit rank. - Fixed
• Guild tags. I understand that we are able to join up to 5 guilds and this may confuse the tag system - why not allow us to "represent" a guild to show that guild tag like GW2? Why change something that isn't broken.
• Allow us to also view what character the person is playing as next to their user ID. This is already possible with an add on. Why not have this implemented already in-game?
• Search filter for the guild store.
• Fix the officer chat. It was working in beta, there is no reason for it to be broken during release.
• When someone is kicked from the guild - please fix it to where the notification says "Name has been kicked out of the guild" not that they have left. There is also an issue where in the guild history, it doesn't show properly that the person has been kicked. Instead, the name of the person who kicked the person out of the guild has been kicked. Example: Hestia has kicked Hestia out of the guild.

Secondary Priorities:

• Custom guild emblem/tabards
• Guild cosmetic equipment (Armor with emblem)

Guild Bank
Guilds need a way to split the guild bank so that more valuable items can be seperated from the more common items and also limit access to officers or crafter etc, atm we need to create a separate guild if we want to do that. A way to further sort the guild bank would be great too, via item type ie heavy armour or beverage ingredients

Guild tabard or equipment

If we are not going to have guild tags, then we need another way of identifying ourselves and also advertising the guild. Players commonly run around solo then will run into a group from a guild, join up with them and have a good time see the name of the guild then look them up and apply to the guild. atm the player needs to ask the guild for an invitation on the spot

Guild Store

The store interface needs to be fixed. I find it unimaginable that it was implemented without a string search option. It would also be nice if part of the house cut went to a guild fund that could be used to buy guild perks or something. Seems a shame to have a successful store with thousands of gold going through it but with no real benefit to the guild itself.

RP Aspect

To have, in addition to the 5 account bound Guilds, one slot per Character for Character Bound Guilds. Especialy for Roleplaying, and PvP. With 5 overall Guilds you can neither really be in an Roleplaying Guild per character, nor can you really do some Faction-Based PvP.
Wouldn't it currently be like
A: "Hey, [Insert Guild Name] have taken the ruby throne!"
B: "Kewl, what faction?"
A: "Ebonheart Pact!"
C: "Sure? I thought they were mostly fighting for daggerfal."
and so on.

I definitely support these ideas, the idea of having guild tags would greatly improve my experience throughout the open world PvP. People would be able to see who the major guilds are and how much they are actively capturing keeps.

It goes without saying that custom guild ranks are something that is needed.

Roguefire

No! NO! NOO! NOOOOO!... I mean yes! This is an great idea. Sorry about that, my backspace is broken.

lynzriches

Guild tags would be AWESOME.

LazerusKI

Custom Guild Ranks...yeah i agree with that.
Just searched through the list but found nothing...

rlatrelleg

I agree that is the one area I would like see some improvement.

r.h.timmermansb16_ESO

Custom guild ranks is something i definitely would love to see implemented in the game.For the guild tag part, I think this should always be implemented in a game i was surprised it wasn't to begin with.

Hestia

I agree @freedompurveyor . It would also be nice if we are able to sell items from our guild store if we own a keep...

Falconid

If I may, I'd like to add one thing to the list.

Giving Leadership of guilds more options with regards to Ranks and Permissions is always a good thing

Does Zenimax really want our feedback? Why does this forum not have a suggestion area?

Hestia

Will this be implemented in an upcoming patch note?

Hestia

Will a staff respond please? Appreciate that the guild bank bug is fixed. What about these other features?

Hestia

Seems like a lot of guilds have agreed to this. Anyone else?

Fenbrae

I agree with all pointers that have been given.
I would also like the Guild Store to be improved. As in, add a search option. Noone wants to look through hundreds of items before they find the item they need. Also, it makes selling items a lot more difficult since the lack of a search option makes it difficult for people to find your items. They simply get swamped by irrelevant items.

netsike

Bump, these ideas are great! I also really would like to see some fixes and changes, like this it's impossible to create special ranks and so on.

100% agree!

As a moderator pointed out in another thread, there's currently no feedback forums. All feedback must be sent through the in-game feedback option.

On topic: I agree with most of what's been posted so far except maybe for guild tags... I think they're unnecessary in this game since we don't see the players names over their head. I believe guild tabards, flags or emblems would fit more. Imagine an army all wearing the same colors with flags on their siege equipment etc.etc. Would make for even more epic battles.

Hestia

Let's share more ideas since it's peak time.

Hestia

Any other suggestions/feedback/comments? Would really like to see this pushed into the game. I am sure it will be very beneficial.

LadyBravora

I linked your thread in the mega thread, hopefully more people will be able to see your guild suggestions, because they're all awesome.

Tweek

Allow 1000 members into guilds seeing as how trading guilds are the AH in this game.

Awesome thank you!

Maybe have this unlocked when a guild reaches 500 players? Also this should increase the amount of items we can sell from 30 to 50 maybe.

Hestia

Looking to buy a patch update with these features.

forgingeagle_ESO

I agree completely with these ideas. I like the fact that each of my toons can access my guilds without having to be recruited in, but I want to represent different guilds for each toon. A tabbard, a cloak, a freakin title! SOMETHING!

Jitterbug

oh, and also: Being able to see when someone was last online, how active they are and stuff like that will come in useful as more and more guilds reach the cap.

EQBallzz

Agree with all of this. Great post. Most of this should have been in the game at launch but I hope they will be adding most of this soon. The guild tools and functionality are pretty bad (including the store).

You also forgot to add officer chat. I realize this is a bug but it's currently not working at all so might as well add it to the list until it's fixed.

Hestia

I added in the officer chat issue.

NextGame

Guild stores should be set up to sell to players externally via an Guild Hireling NPC in a set marketplace area, not internally to guild members as they are at present.
