Guild of the Month: July 2015

Start: Monday, July 6, 2015 07:00 (sch_gld)
End: Saturday August 1, 2015 03:00 (pay_gld)

Welcome to the official thread of the Guild of the Month for July! Quick heads up, the finals (GvG event) format is still up in the air. If you would like to contribute any ideas, they will be appreciated. Click here to review last month's mechanics.

Please note there has been a change in the WOE schedule. You can either check this thread or the 'WOE Information' NPC (amatsu 210 204) in-game for full details. This does not change the times, only the castles and which town is active.

Your aim, as always, is to accumulate 'WoE points'.

How do guilds accumulate WoE points?
After every WoE, the NPC will add points to guilds that are holding castles. 1 castle = 1 point; more castles conquered when WoE ends means more WoE points.

On the end date (after Saturday WoE, August 1, 2015), the top six guilds will qualify for the GotM Finals (to be held after WoE on Sunday, August 2, 2015, starting 10:00)
Please note the last day for qualification has changed from Sunday to Saturday.

The following hot-spot castles will grant guilds with 3 WoE points at the end of every siege.

• Gefn (Rachel) [Top Right]
• Wuerzburg (Aldebaran) [Top Right]
• Swanhild (Prontera) [Bottom Right]

The following hot-spot castles will grant guilds with 2 WoE points at the end of every siege.

• Andlangr (Yuno) [Top Right]
• Bright Arbor (Payon) [Top Left]
• Repherion (Geffen) [Bottom Left]
• Rothenburg (Aldebaran) [Bottom Right]
• Kriemhild (Prontera) [Bottom Left]

The command to aru_gld and sch_gld will be enabled to accommodate this event.
