Guild castle board and upgrades

Would be nice to have the guild castle board actually have upgraded level rewards since we are level cap 92 now and not level 50 anymore.

Let us be able to obtain 500 rubies/guild runes for each of the quest on there on upgraded quests difficulty, what is the purpose of having all four when they all have the same crappy quests on them?

Changes would be helpful for guilds, tyvm

Agreed I want shiny stuff but runes and rubies can get hard to get for higher lvl things. Andor is really the only place I am aware of to get them easily and you can only do that once a day.

To make the point that we need more ruby/guild/mats event for guild castle

<img







































Just to show a few buildings and how when you upgrade one building, you have to upgrade 2 more to be able to upgrade it. Look at the amounts of mats needed, rubies and guild runes is just insane to obtain even if you do minis everyday. Would be nice to get 4 guild/ruby event per year to help people upgrade their stuff. Walls and castle upgrade are about 1M rubies/220K guild runes and 27M ore/herbs and wood. to get full upgraded castle and that is not mentionning the castle skin lol.

Would be nice to have said events more often to help out the communities, tyvm

Added new pics of new buildings upgrades

Daym... Thanks, Zid. The numbers for a lot of those building are not in otherwise most complete reference I know of for guild buildings at http://runesofmagic.gamepedia.com/Guild_Castles

Either way, have to agree. Either mats event as one time assistance or an increase in farmable guild mats would be good. Andor helps, but only so much. Maybe both?

Oh, and people who have more than 3 classes are clinically insane.

Pet crafting.
Andors'.
mems from actually doing runs.
honor points from actually showing up to siege.
collecting mats in the guild afk.

Takes time and work from ALL members.

If everyone invests gold into mem mats guild upgrades actually go quickly. But it MUST be a guild effort, recently my guild has started taking gold from raidsales to be invested into castle(just a way that works for my guild) That being said I do agree there should be more ways to get mats. More GM/Board events maybe.

The ore/herbs and wood is obtainable with mems and petcrafting, takes a while tho. The guild runes/rubies are the ones that are way too hard to get even if you do minis, random to get those and mostly the drop of them is scarce.



All i am suggesting is ways to get the guild runes and rubies to help guilds. If you have suggestions that are helpful please share them, tyvm. :love:

The herbs, ore and wood wouldn't take anywhere near as much work as the guild runes and rubies do. To put it in perspective I have about 14 toons that do andor (when I have time for them anyway) and you don't always get rubies and its only 500 or so at times. That doesn't add up very fast and considering the headache you can't really expect and ask guildies to make a bunch of alts for andor just for the guild its a headache. I don't think even zid does it anymore (which is good for varanas lag tho).

I remember Zid saying that it is unfair to be given everything after hard work. Like crafting for example, why should we be able to buy max crafting levels after his hard work?
This is kinda the same thing, asking to be given all the materials for doing nothing. =p :cookie:

No one should be able to BUY their way in anything that is a feature of the game like crafting, leveling toons, leveling pets etc. I am asking for ways to get more rubies and guild runes to helps guilds with their castles. There are very limited ressources and ways to get rubies and guild runes .

Why did you not include the word "castle" in this quote? As in leveling a castle IS a game feature afterall.

Zid mentioned "etcetera" so that he wouldn't have to list every possible thing thar be to list, castle included. Now before the topic truly starts to derail, let's hear some more opinions on guild rubies and runes. I myself feel that it takes quite some time to accumulate any meaningful amount of either when doing Andor Training Grounds with a number of alts every day.

With a higher population on the servers, the current method would be feasible, but as it is, the rate of obtaining said items is quite slow for most guilds. An update to the guild castle dailies for better rewards as Zid mentioned is my line of thinking. Them have been out of date for quite some time and could be a great way to implement more reliable methods of obtaining runes and rubies without having to run a myriad of alts through andor every day.

I should have also mentioned, I'm not against the idea of a ruby/rune event zid. Personally I'd prefer other events but yes a event like this would also be helpful, the first thing I believe they should do is improve the guild board rewards greatly and that would go a long ways. Also farming world bosses is a great way to get the guild runes, including the lower level ones.

Can we please have a GM clean out the thread, it was made with the purpose of suggestions to help guilds to try to obtain mats for their castle and buildings. Also to give information to those who don't know what is the material costs for said improvement since ROM wiki stop at level VI or VII upgrades sadly.


As usual the wanna be trolls are at it and trying to derail this thread, tyvm. And then we wonder why the population is so low on the servers, great job guys.


A certain amount of dusting has been done.

Might I remind YOU that mentioning glitches, a certain guild, and your general comment regaarding "trolls" don't provide much help and are definitely off-topic. We (the GM staff) are quite aware of shenanigans across all the servers that have happened in the past. Let's not dig up old trash, but allow it to decompose naturally, mmmkay?

Keep it clean, keep it lean, and don't be mean.

To Zid and the Zidophiles:


No, I do not believe GF or RW should alter any part of the castle upgrading system. We built our castle up from scratch. So you should have to do it the same way. Why should it be easier for you than it was for us?

I never said easier, where did i say that? all i am asking is to get the same guild/ruby events we used to have. EU got one a few weeks back but we were forgotten as usual, not the GM's fault, but Gameforge.

The whole concept screams "easier" and "faster". You suggested changing the guild daily reward from 5 rubies to 500. Don't you consider that "easier" since you would be obtaining in 1 day what it took me 100 days to get? So, again, I say NO to upgrading guild daily quest rewards.
