Hey folks,
In Game Update 5.10 we will be introducing a forum posts on both of those other topics to get the full picture of what is changing! Fair warning, there is a lot of information to cover so expect a fairly long post.
Here is a TLDR for you: Guild Ship to provide a variety of benefits, leveling also gives you new benefits for XP, CXP, and Reputation gain.
What is Guild Leveling and How Does it Work?
Guild leveling is fairly simple at its core. Similar to a hit the next Guild XP target, they will level up. Guilds start at level 1 and can theoretically, level infinitely.
Guild XP for their Guild.
Currently, there is a large Guilds will regularly hit the cap, but the majority of Guilds will not.
Every time a Guild levels up, a few things happen:
- They receive a fixed amount of Guild Commendations (these are used to purchase Guild Perks)
- The amount of XP, CXP, and Reputation earned by the Guild increases. These values start at 5% XP, 5% Rep, and 0% CXP and they steadily increase until they cap at 15% XP, 15% Rep, and 10% CXP.
- This is a new benefit as players can now reach higher bonuses to XP and Rep than ever before, without relying on Guild size. Plus we have introduced a new bonus to CXP which did not exist previously.
- At specific Guild Level breakpoints, Guilds will qualify to purchase higher Tiers of Guild Perks.
What Are Our Goals?
Now that you have a level as fast as possible, or to just let it happen, you should be gaining Guild levels as you play.
In a moment we are going to share some key breakpoints that exist in our plan for Guild leveling. We built these targets with two key pieces of information. The current amount of Conquest points that Guilds are earning across all yield sizes and the continued potential for Conquest point gains based on the additional Conquest changes coming in 5.10 and the added Conquest point potential from Perks.
Specifics
Let’s talk about some specific numbers for Guild Leveling. Two quick disclaimers:
- As always, everything is subject to change.
- It is week along with listening to your to look for areas to make changes.
Reminder – 1 Conquest Point = 2 Guild XP
For context on XP vs Leveling, going from level 1 to level 2 requires 1,000,000 Guild XP. Going from 2-3 requires another 1,010,000 -or- 2,010,000 total (for the math lovers out there, this curve is not necessarily incremental). We expect that Guilds which are hitting Small Yield Planetary targets will be gaining around 3 or so levels a week. This can vary greatly based on Guild size and activity.
Here are some key breakpoints:
- Level 6 – Guild reaches 10% bonus XP and Reputation
- Level 12 – Guild qualifies for Tier 2 Guild Perks
- Level 32 – Guild qualifies for Tier 3 Guild Perks
- Level 40 – Guild has capped XP and Reputation Gains at 15% bonus
- Level 49 – Guild qualifies for Tier 4 Guild Perks
- Level 51 – Guild has capped CXP Gains at 10% bonus
- Level 64 – Guild qualifies for Tier 5 Guild Perks (current highest tier)
- Level 65+ – Guild will continue to earn Guild Commendations but there is no gameplay benefit beyond level 64. There will be cosmetic rewards that may be introduced in a later patch tied to Heraldry that will take Guild Level into .
We know that some of you may do the math on average something new that your Guild can be working towards every week!
Also, by having a cap we know the pace that the fastest possible Guilds can level. This allows us to plan when and how to introduce perks into economy. Definitely take a look at our Perk post to get your head around how Perks can affect your Guild.
This is a lot of information to digest. Please, let us know your !
