Step 2 - Guild Up!

But I don't want to talk to anyone!  Dude (or dudette) you just started playing a MMORPG it's full of folks.  So might as well make this fun.

I run my republic toons with The Covenant (guild on hold) and Unchained Wrath / Intergalactic Sociopaths impside.  These are on the Star Forge server.

Why do you want to join a guild?  Here is why young Padawan:

• Most guild offer a +10% XP bonus when you join, so right there stop reading and join a guild.
• Most also offer a +10% reputation bonus, which applies to the reputation stuff in your legacy (press Y!)
• Folks to play with, ask questions, or just hang out
• Larger guilds will have either or a guild ship or a stronghold.  Very useful when well built.  Saves bunch of time.
• Most guilds have a voice system, fun.  And useful when typing is not cutting it.

So how do you join a guild?  Easy peasy:

1. Do a general chat request requesting a guild like "LF Guild", on a starter world, 2nd world or fleet.  Plenty of good guilds, a way to measure is asking the # of members.  If it's under say 150 take a pass if you like
2. Wait on fleet or starter worlds for folks to spam guild invites.  Can't miss them.
3. But the best place is on the SWTOR forums of your server to find guilds recruiting.  

Make new friends & have fun!
