Trial Guild

sickboy2808

Im looking for a trial guild which accepts players who are new to the trials.I am V12 tank and really want to do these trials but with a guild who has patience with new trial players. I am a tank and in the EU server in DC so please let me know of any guilds that are willing to let me join...Thank You

sickboy2808

No guild wanna take me Ha? Also wanna try Dsa and surely someone wants to help me out?

We don't have enough people for trials, yet. Sorry.

...also you kinda need to have a werewolf main.

You might want to inquire in-game about this. Craglorn zone chat, maybe? Surely you have contacts who have done trials--ask them about their guilds. The caveat here is finding a group that's willing to help you learn. But that's always an obstacle in any game. Best of luck to you!

I'm not ready for trials yet (only VR9) but I'm really looking forward to raiding in ESO.

If you were NA DC I would have the perfect guild for you, I'm sure we have a counterpart amongst our EU blue brethren. Good luck in your search.

I have found a guild that lets new trialist players join so hopefully get to go soon as i am now finding the game boring..The only things keeping me playing is Dailys and the chance to run these raids.Why do i need be a WW? Is this something else thats going to stop ny progress? Defo getting really bored now. Maybe they should fix the dam group finder

If that was directed at me, it's just a thematic thing in the guild, not an actual gameplay requirement. But, you'll run into that occasionally. Groups that are WW only or Vampire only, or none of the above only.

Oh well thankfully its not a requirement for trials ha

I belive the fact that people have to look for endgame content guilds on the forums and in zone chats is a symptom of both the "megaserver" architecture and the five guilds policy.

Back when I still played WoW (10-6 years ago), everyone on any given server knew the best PvE and PvP guilds on that server, as well as most of the ones that did reasonably well.

You could also find out pretty easily by looking at the guild tags of well equipped people in popular cities.

If you wanted to get in touch with members of those guilds (if you didn't know the guildmaster's name/the address of the guild's website by heart already), you just /searched for online members and contacted them.

In ESO, on the other hand, there don't seem to be any guilds that are in everyone's mouth. There are simply too many of them. There also aren't any guild tags to go on and even if there were, there is no way to tell the quality of a character's gear. Last but not least, there also isn't a way to check for online members of a specific guild (other than asking in /z).

Part of the reason for this might also be due to the fact that there is no hard raiding content to speak of, so people also aren't talking about how guild X beat raid Y after only Z time of it being released.

This is why I, alongside many others, have been asking for better guild communication and recruitment tools, such as public guild rosters, for a long time now. To my knowledge, none of the threads about this issue has had any official responses to date.

WW get a bonus ultimate generation while they have the transformation slotted on the active bar. They also have increase stamina recovery.
Those advantages are available in human form without any drawbacks (no extra dmg taken from poison or fighters guild abilities), which makes WWs slightly stronger than regular humans in any situation, especially when tanking.

Could u pls tell which ww skill provide stamina recovery in human form?

sickboy2808

Yeah i dont get why we cant search for a specific guild.we must get invited?? And that group finder is a joke.Anyway if i dont manage to get into a few trial runs i can see me ditching the game and letting the pro players get on with it. Of course where does that leave the game in the future??As im really bored of the rest of the game and only go on for dailys.

It's not a specific skill, the stam regen increase is given when the ww skill line is unlocked.

None, but it's there. 10% or so, visible simply by comparing your Stam regeneration before and after becoming a werewolf.

Hoping you're being ironic there.

A guild is a club, you don't join some clubs, you need to be vetted. That might just be a conversation, to make sure your not going to annoy everyone, or a test of your skills.

Being WW really helps you as a trials tank, for a variety of reasons. I would look into it, though you will never transform.

The 'easiest' way after word of mouth to find a trials guild is to be in a trading guild and watch your notifications for good times. Agreed, its overly difficult.

If I remember correctly this wasn't intended and was to be "looked into" for fixes. Vampires certainly don't have this advantage.

I could swear I've been laid out by silver bolts in human form before. Or did this get broken in the last couple months?

At the same time, most clubs have access to better methods of advertising than screaming in zone randomly.

It wouldn't be a terrible idea to have some kind of notice boards you could slap an advertisement for your guild up on... IE a searchable UI interface that lets prospective members seek you out. Either as a UI element tied to the guild panel or as an actual interactable in each zone's major city.

I agree, having some sort of advertisement for guilds would be a good idea.

I could even get behind having a guild billboard here, you could post a flyer with contact details (with prestated restrictions, no characters in their undies, no Racism (even fictional, etc)). But you would need to divide it up between the servers, and possibly between PVP guilds, Trade guilds, PVE guilds, RP Guilds and Trial guilds.

Thats exactly what i was thinking.a board like we have for crafting writs which maybe shows you Trial Groups or Dailys that are ready to start also sorted with experienced or fun runs.Something like that would make it so much easier to group and we wouldnt need to join these Club Guilds as the other player called them..The boards could even list the Crag Quests and shows how many more players needed for each quest
