Styx
Is a newly formed Guild with a lot of new faces but also gamers that we know from old communities, guilds and competitive teams. This guild is being led by experienced gamers with quite some accomplishments in gaming.
The Guild's focus mainly lies within PvP, but we will also do the rest on the sidetrack.
We offer a platform for Hardcore players as well as for more casual ones, since our guild will focus on Hardcore PvP but we also give the freedom of playing more casually.
@Fleelix @Stez
Are the guild leaders together balancing the weaknesses out and enhancing our strengths . We think that our actual experience in competitive gaming and leading is what puts as ahead of community leaders, players that haven't played in the competitive scene and others.

When it comes to guilds I always start it with the feeling of a family. Every guild that I made in the past was a bless. The general idea of ours is to be on the top of the charts and one of the top guild vs guild content.

The Ashen Herald - Issue #8
Guild: Styx (Co-Leader: Stez)
Stez and his co-founder Felix are the dynamic duo behind the guild, Styx. The guild's focus is primarily on player versus player combat and progression. They are looking to recruit dedicated PvP players, however Stez is quick to point out that PvE progression is "necessary" to be able to be ranked as a top guild and ultimately claim one of the world castles. While they are recruiting PvPers, Stez is aware players might wish to balance their playtime between the PvP and PvE. "Players are of course allowed ot focus on their preference. We will have groups for everything." He points out that Ashes feels like a game where all types of player will be needed - "the one thing [PvE] compliments the other [PvP]. PvP Players need to gear up etc, while caravans [for example] also need protection."
When asked about his recruitment strategy given the fact that PvP and PvE are so intertwined and if he would be open to the possibility of recruiting players that might only want to PvP casually, Stez was quick to respond that his guild would be happy to have hardcore and casuals alike with the aim to support all types of members and foster a community that encourages more experienced players to assist those that are new or unfamiliar with PvP gameplay. Styx's first MMO as a guild will be Ashes and their plan is to bring in friends from other games in addition to recruiting from the current Ashes community.
While Styx waits for Ashes, they are very keen on fostering social interaction through gaming to keep their guild members engaged. Some of the games the guild plays at the moment are World of Warcraft, Player Unknown Battlegrounds (PUBG), League of Legends, Overwatch, Skara and so on. The reasoning behind gaming as a group is "high level PvP requires trust in your teammates" and in Stez's opinion it also a way to better understand your fellow teammates' playstyles.
Styx's guild hierarchy is based on a few things - mostly on what the player plans to do in game, tenure in the guild itself as well as previous gaming experience. Stez says they will appoint different leaders for different areas of gameplay available in the game. The goal being not to reward members just based on social status within the guild but for the experience and accomplishments related to furthering the guild ideals and goals. They want to avoid "one sided" leadership but instead nurture fresh ideas and new perspectives.
When asked about his leadership style and what makes him a good leader, Stez felt that he and his co-leader Felix compliment each other as a leadership team. He thinks that as well as having a lot of previous experience in leadership roles in games is what sets them apart. He also believes that Styx will foster "effective and progressive PvP," meaning that the guild will focus on helping out each other and wants to recruit like-minded players with a wide range of experience in gaming. They feel their knowledge on how large scale PvP groups work will help them tie things all together. Stez's leadership style is more personal in the sense that he really wants to get to know his members. He wants to understand his recruit's background, goals in game and get them interacting with their fellow team members as soon as possible. He does reiterate that his plan is to ensure that his guild focuses on helping members hone their skills through coaching versus telling them to well...git gud, scrub.
Stez wrapped up the interview with a shoutout to his fellow guild leader and friend Felix as well as his friend Pote for his guidance. We wish Stez and Styx the best of luck and hope to see them in game in the future. Thanks, Stez!
The location we choose is yet to be decided, we will make a decision in the late beta weeks before the game launches to discuss it with our community.
