Guild Achievements and YOU: Help Nyx Level UP!!

[Shixin]

The guild levels up when we get certain guild achievements. Not all of the guild achieves will be done right away, just from the sheer enormity of the tasks. But I tried to come up with a list of things we can do fairly quickly.nnnThe following tasks are for the guild as a whole try to complete.nn

1) Create and purchase a guild crestn2) Purchase the 7th Guild Bank Tabn3) Reach level 85 in every class for [A Class Act]n4) Spend 50,000 gold on guild member repairs for [It All Adds Up]n5) Reach level 85 in every class on EVERY RACE for:n
a. [Classy Orcs]nb. [Classy Trolls]nc. [Classy Tauren]nd. [Classy Blood Elves]ne. [Classy Undead]nf. [Classy Goblins]ng. [Stay Classy]
n6) Get Exalted Reputation for [Dungeon Diplomat] with the following final groups:n
a. Therazanenb. Ramkahennc. Dragonmaw Clannd. The Earthen Ringne. Guardians of Hyjal
n7) Raise 15 reputations to exalted for [Diplomacy] (0/15 (0%))n8) Complete 25,000 quests for [That’s a Lot of Travel Time] (5912/25000 (23%))n9) Complete 15,000 Daily quests for [A Daily Routine] (121/15000 (0%))n10) Complete 500 Archaeology Research Projects (300/500 (60%))n11) Obtain 525 in all professions and Secondary professions for [Working as a Team]n12) Obtain one of these Legendary Itemsn
a. [Sulfuras, Hand of Ragnaros]nb. [Warglaives of Azzinoth]nc. [Val’anyr, Hammer of the Ancient Kings]nd. [Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker]ne. [Thoridal, the Stars’ Fury]nf. [Shadowmourne]

nnBut by far, the best achievement points come from raids and instances, as well as battlegrounds. And some are as easy as simply clearing each of the classic dungeons, or earning the Battlemaster title in each class (we already have a priest BM).nnnNow, here’s a list of things each of us can do to help the guild level up quickly to get the perks:nn

1) Only run dungeons in which at least 75% of the group are Nyx membersn2) Only run battlegrounds in which at least 75% of the group are Nyx membersn3) Complete your Daily quests each day.n4) Level your professions as quickly as possiblen5) Level your reputations as quickly as possiblen6) Kill 50,000 Critters For [Critter Kill Squad]n7) LOOT EVERYTHING for [Profit Sharing] (Loot 100,000 gold from creatures (≈3800g))

nnSo, hope this helps get us up the ladder faster!!

1) Create and purchase a guild crest

nnWouldn't that just require the guildmaster to go and redesign the tabard to something, then design it right back? Or is guild crest something different than the tabard design?nnAnyways, from what I understand Blizzard hotpatched out experience gains from guild achievements.nnhttp://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/1306052109nnAnother thing I was going to bring up was for the guild member repairs, perhaps once we get to the guild perk that allows for extra money generation when people loot corpses the pay from guild bank option could be turned on for non-ephemerals or something like that. Obviously this would have to be discussed by the higher ups and evaluated to see if it would be a net positive or a net negative.

Well, that pretty much makes this thread null and void.nnSo...how does a guild level up now? Just the combined experience gains from each player soloing through quests/dungeons to reach the level cap each day? Which, btw, since the daily cap is at 6K and it takes 850M xp to get from 1 to 25, reaching max level will take us at least 135 days.nnBut, what happens when everyone is level 85? Do we stop progressing?

But, what happens when everyone is level 85?

nnI don't think you'll have to worry about people not levelling, there's usually a few, but from what I understand you still gain guild experience and stuff for doing the "end-game" stuff.

Okay, so after a little more digging, here is what I have found out regarding guild achievments and why we should get them. Many of the new GA's result in unlocking items that are purchaseable by anyone in the guild who has the requisite guild rep.nnHere's the list:nnAchievment---------------ITEM---------------------------------------Rep Req'dnWorking as a Team-----Banner of Cooperation------------------HonorednA Daily Routine--------Battle Standard of Coordination-----HonorednAlliance Slayer----------Guild Page--------------------------------HonorednBetter Leveling through Chemistry-------Recipe: Big Cauldron of Battle --------HonorednSet the Oven to "Cataclysmic"---------Recipe: Broiled Dragon Feast ---------HonorednMix Master--------------Recipe: Cauldron of Battle ------------HonorednThat's A Lot of Bait----Recipe: Seafood Magnifique Feast---HonorednA Class Act---------------Shroud of Cooperation ----------------HonorednGuild Cataclysm Dungeon Hero --------Standard of Unity---------HonorednMaster Crafter-----------Cloak of Coordination ----------------HonorednStay Classy---------------Guild Vault Voucher (8th Slot) ----HonorednCritter Kill Squad-------Armadillo Pup-------------------------ExaltednUnited Nations----------Dark Phoenix Hatchling-------------ExaltednProfit Sharing-----------Guild Herald----------------------------ExaltednGuild Glory of the Cataclysm Raider--------Reins of the Dark Phoenix----------Exalted

The more I read about guild levelling and rewards and such, the more I like it. I'll do what I can to help.

It is an interesting concept, and I know that we will know more as time goes on... I'm sure Blizzard will continue to reevaluate and change little things here and there that they feel isn't helping. I sooooo want that Dark Phoenix mount... but they are level 85 raids...
