    Well since we have one tamriel and every player is leveled I don't see the harm in them creating mini games. It would definitely break up the monotony of pvp and trials and dungeons. You can only do them so many times each and pvp gets boring. There needs to be fun worthwhile repeatable content that is rewarding enough that players WANT to do them and do them regularly.

    This is something guild leaders can handle themselves. We have plenty of "guild activities" planned each week. We do world boss runs, Trials, Cyrodiil skyshards, and naked dungeon runs.

    But once the skyshards are farmed then what? The world bosses drop crappy loot that I can get anywhere else in the game and there's no real need to repeat dungeons. What's the harm in the game having repeatable content that rewards you with something worthwhile?

    I think a lot of the people against this are in the mind that such an event should not be forced on a player. But it's not in the intent to force. It wouldn't be mandatory. Anyone who has played gw2 and was in a active guild would remember how fun it was to do guild races. Sure the game allows us do to all this ourselves but if the game would reward guilds for doing these things together I don't see the harm. And I'm not saying then this game into gw2 but there is a lot to be desired for guild activities outside pvp and trials. Anything to make a guild more social together would be an improvement in the game. I can't tell you how many guilds I have joined and there was no one in chats for days at a time. Something like this would help promote interacting with others and building friendships. Which is what makes an mmo so much more fun than single player

    I am not against it. Zos already added guild activities which OP seems to overlook. Trials, dungeons and such.

    Further, guild scan and do come up with obstacle courses and scavenged hunts and more. They have some creative people in their leadership ans done need Zos to hold their hand so they can get something done. They even offer a reward for the winners. Leadership is for vision and creativity.

    the statement that most guilds have no incentive (or reason) to do anything together is false. If it seems to be the case in your guild there is a problem with the guild. Either find another guild or step up yourself and start getting things done rather than ask others to do it for you.

    Guild Wars 2 had guild activities you could unlock. Meh. Nobody ever attended.

    We always have alts and new members that need skyshards.

    Also, for those of you stating that "X game has Y", that's fine. Go play that game since you like it so much. This isn't that game and I don't want it to become that game.

    Nope. But you could bring about the change in the guilds. Organize stuff. It doesn't matter what is In game, if no one organizes anything nothing gets done as a group.

    The only reason why I voted yes is because I would love to have an in-game calendar that would allow guilds to set events and notify people when they begin.

    Other than that I think GMs should have to do the work to set up the events themselves.

    Agree with the in-game calendar.

    Zos had that. Craglorn.

    Problem with Craglorn is the whole zone was forced group. So, no one wanted to go there as most people PvE Solo. Its still mostly forced Group but can be solo'd with a good build in most of the dungeons.

    Wrothgar, Gold Coast and Hew's Bane are the models they should emulate.
    @Nestor what about the giant volcanic island? (30+ hours of gameplay)

    Wish they would bring back the idea of Murkmire.

    The prerequisites required for doing the World Boss and other Dailies up there is kind of irksome. That is why I left it off the list. We had issues getting a guild run as so many had not done the pre-reqs on the characters they had brought.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    No. And the only reason for a no response is that guild activities should be organised by the guild and not have a system in place by ZOS to do so. I've seen guilds organise silly things like fishing events. Hell, I've been in random runs across or through zones. These are organised by players.

    I agree with you man. It can't be that hard for guildmates to come up with some events?
