How would you like to see guild system updated?

With performance bugs in guild roster ...maybe we will finally get our quality of life dreams for guild system! What do you guys hope to see?

* For me I would like the guild roster to show roles, so I know who to pm in guild for some content.

My qol request would be better guildstore functionality esp for console. Search would be nice and a price aggregator might help stabilize the economy.

I would like to see an option at guild trader sites that would allow the guild master to decide if they wanted their @name listed after the guild name so players could message them about joining. Would need to be opt in/out though so guild master isn't plagued with requests when the guild is full.

And really dreaming we need a guild hall option. I'm thinking if ten members own the same house then another instance of that house becomes available on a list for the guild master to choose from for a guild hall. The home would still have to be bought and the guild master could decide what ranks get what kinds of rights.

Also make it harder for me to accidentally leave the guild. I don't always pay attention and it is humiliating (a bit) because it seems when I do leave a guild by accident it is always the one I am 2nd officer in.

There are several things I'd like to see in the Guild System, especially now that so many guilds operate complex rules around membership. I know that there are add-ons for much of this, but they are generally slow to get updated, they're buggy and are a compromise solution. Here's my list:-

• More detail available about Guild Members in the roster, populated with sortable data - including date of joining, last donation amount and date, total donations for the period, last log, etc. Maybe for PVP guilds it would be useful to show whether the account has alts in more than one faction.
• More ways of managing the Guild Bank - including the ability to stack items in the bank like we can in our own banks. The ability to buy more space would also be welcome.
• More (or perhaps different) ways to control ranks. I would like to be able to give certain ranks the right to take certain items from a guild bank (maybe by item group such as crafting mats, potions, etc) or by level (e.g. green, blue, purple, gold). Right now it's all or nothing, and many of the existing rank options really don't help GMs to differentiate in the way we would like.
• I would also like to see an overhaul of the guild trader bidding system. I'd like to be able to cancel a bid once placed, and to be able to place secondary and tertiary bids (so that if you lose your primary location, the system sorts you to the next location on your list so that have the automatic ability to win a secondary bid). It would be nice to know the winning range in a location, too - a question I am asked most by new trade GMs is how much to bid. This could be done in loads of ways, either a broad range, or a "cold, warm" style system - just something to indicate a ball-park value.
• On a trade kiosk, we should be able to see the Guild Information for the incumbent guild so we know what they're about and who to contact to join / ask questions.

That's my Guild wish list. I appreciate that my list is trade guild orientated, as I run a trade guild and am seeking to smooth away some frustrations. That said, I think a lot of this stuff works for any busy guild.

I'm fully in support of updated guild systems, the ones ESO has right now work but are very basic. @MissBizz had a fantastic thread in the past about changes for guilds to improve them LINK

The big issues or improvements I would like are.

• Guild Bank Update - Ability to create different sections with different access levels (based on roles/groups), a better fix for the item duplication bug so we can finally be rid of "waiting on previous request"
• Guild Ranks Update - Remove the promote/demote system and just let us create roles/groups we can apply to members.
• Overhaul on UI - Add additional information such as account and char names, roles, etc.
• Major update on guild trader system - UI UPDATE, UI UPDATE, UI UPDATE, UI UPDATE. Global search within the game (it makes sense because magic)

Probably more things but I can't think of them right now. Tagging @Nermy as he might have some as someone running a guild which always had great ideas for guild updates.

I have spoken with ZOS members in the past about this when I've had a chance to meet them, they acknowledged that they understand updates are desired and it would have to be a companion update alongside something, just just didn't have anything in the pipeline at the time. That was over a year ago though so I have no idea if plans have changed.

there's an performance bug so now a chance for changes.

What do you guys hope to see?

Unlocking guild bank with crowns for those small "circle of friends" guilds.

Better guild member permission management system, especially guild bank withdrawal limits.

Stack items in the guild bank.

Have a "guild crafting bag" if the guild has enough "active ESO+" members.

And finally...
...GUILDHALLS!
Maybe as deadric mini-planes that need to be "conquered" first (raid-level "clear the area" combat), and then can be built on. Projects started by guildmaster, members contribute stuff until its done, constructions require -tons- of white-quality crafting materials (All those "Ta" runes you have no idea what to do with!), and so the conquered area slowly gets filled with buildings and fortifications... outer walls, inner keep, etc., much like a "do it yourself" cyrodil keep... and then once a building is constructed, it can be filled with furniture, NPC guards, traps and stuff...

And in the end, combetative guilds can choose to declare their guildhall to be "open for battle", which means they can get attacked and their guildmembers can attack other "combat-enabled" guildhalls... while those guilds who'd rather just have fun with their friends can opt to keep their guildhall "warded" and unattackable...

Guildhall's would be nice. I will toss in guild quests too with this.

I still can't believe that after 4 years we still don't have this

supaskrub

Options for gm to show number of listings each person has on the trader, choice to allow members to edit own notes, edit all notes or edit no notes, date member joined.

Enhanced filters for searching traders (especially motifs), mass mailing by rank.

Are there actual guild halls for the player yet? If not, I recommend they add that for guilds, a place where all can go and hang - add to the guild hall training dummies, crafting stations, etc... the guild hall and items in the guild would be something the guild would have to build up. Start small and over time / resources the guild hall and accompanying items would be added.

Another thought, not sure if the eso system has this or not for guilds, is as system designed to add stats to us based on the guild hall or some other guild feature to drive the importance around the guild.

Stats to having a guild sounds fun.

Guild halls and guild quests sound super! Yeah, it would be nice if like when we wore a tabbard and did any quest, then the guild would earn some kind of guild currency. Guild currency of coarse would be used to buy stuff for guild halls.

Also, it would be interesting if you could put on a setting that allowed all guild members to see you tracked on their maps. That way, when you are in guild chat asking for help they can find you real quick. They could describe where to go sometimes without having to travel to you and physically show. Yeah, wouldn’t have to waste time grouping if it was just a quick question of direction.

I would love for 2 things:

1) For there to be a mount like the Alliance War Horse, but instead of Alliance colors, it would have your guild heraldry on it. It could look really really awesome!!

2) 5 guilds is not enough for me. Please allow us to either purchase additional guild slots for 1000 Crowns, or expand it from 5 to 8 with no cost.

Expanding guilds slots does sound like a great like great crown store seller.

stojekarcub18_ESO

Limit of one guild, and remove the horrid trader system.

phairdon

Would like to see guild recruitment boards in all the major cities, where guilds recruiting can place advertisements. A board for trading guilds, one for pvx, another for rp guilds, etc.

ezio45

optional automated donation system for traders

something like, gm sets (x)g / week, system keeps track of how much players have donated and deducts (x) from there total every week, give a warning if you are unpaid then kicks a few days later.

with the option to select effected ranks, so officers arnt effected

also a "time out" option would be nice, like a thing where officers with perm could silence players from gc for a set amount of time.

and setting who edits guild mem notes or a edit self notes but not others perm would be lovely

ezio45

also an automated gc message system would be nice

You can already do that in member notes. Though if they are decent at the game they should have a dps/ a tanky/and a healer character that can all do vet endgame content.

Nermy

I think most of the things I would like to see have already been mentioned:

• Guild halls
• Guild mail
• Guild calendar

It's definitely time guilds saw a bit of love...
