good post, I want a 50-100 family type guild just to joke around and try to clear some content

Chicago

Maybe 100-150 ish people sounds good to me!

Depraved

30 and all guild skills to be strongz in pvp and an ally of 300 + 300 har har

25 to 50. Big enough to do almost anything. Small enough to feel friendly and like a family.

Ludullu

<300 cause I like my casual guilds zergy.

I prefer my guild to be a small group of active players who want to get good at the game, around 60 or so people. Any bigger than that and cliques start to form with everyone doing their own content.

250+ allows for interesting timezone players to pop in and out, day and night for NA East

Around 200. Definitely no more than will fit in 1 in-game guild. That's annoying have B and C team guilds.

Individuated Soul

Smaller guilds will limit the amount of interesting campaigns and tactics a guild can employ. I already think 300 is the sweet spot. Also Caww brings up a good point. Smaller guilds kind of force you to play with your timezone. I for one really enjoy playing with EU players and a larger guild size enables that more practically.

I like to know and hang out with my guildies. For this purpose would be better if it was <50, but since there are raids that needs 40 players, i guess it has to be 50~100

Maximum guild size for guilds that full specs into guild passive skills is expected to be around 30-50 and i expect it to be 40(A full raid size), for the ones that full specs in size its maximum size is expected to be 300.

If the guild passive skills are insane 40 players guilds(4x40 160 player alliances) will be the way to go.
If the guild passive skills are trash 300 players guilds(4x300 1200 players alliances) will be the way to go.
I will find the meta in between those numbers and their mix.

My expectations? I do believe Guild passive skills will be reasonably close to insanity...

As for my personal preference? I'm more fond of Quality over Quantity and prefer do lead/deal with a small number of Elite Organized Groups rather than a Mindless Zerg.

I don't really want to tie myself down when playing this, neither do my friends so we are looking at a small guild of basically mercenaries, dungeon delvers and collectors for rare resources. Move around a lot, see what the world has to offer and be where the action is. Let the people fight over freehold parcels, being king/queen or mayor, we will be out there backing up whichever side pays the most during a siege, protecting caravans or robbing them, fill the ranks of raid groups who look for people who know how to slay beasts and sink ships on the open seas. No way this will be possible with a huge guild.

PherPhur

I want to be a part of the largest force of chaos based RPPvP I can find. A large pirate guild of 243? A collection of guilds with around 2104 total players? Don't matter to me, as long as they're constantly plotting to turn some stones

Dhaiwon

10-25, at that point I can still maintain a proper a personal relation to every member. As the size goes above that it's going to get a lot harder to do that.

Veeshan

anything above 100 players is basicly impossible to control/direct

unless majority of players are like mindless zombies.

In games similiar to AoC you tend to find any alliance of about 100 players tend to implode after about 1 month and break appart again

I think Mercenary guilds will be a key part of Ashes. Well organized fighters with no home or allegiances to get in the way!

My thought is that in order to dominate a node or nodes, you are going to need to have an alliance of guilds anyway, so my thought is to maximize skills. I also always main a healer, so I am going to probably want a religious node, that is linked to a more dominant and more popular node type anyway.

not true at all. that depends on the people playing. also, I've seen more drama and guilds disbanding when they are small

iccer

~50-60 players max

Assuming about 1/3 are active at same time as you, it feels about right. Feels small enough that you know those 1/3 of members and that you interact with them on a regular basis, yet large enough to do stuff when needed and when everyone gets online.

bonus points for having alliances with similar guilds

Anything close to 100 and over is just not my type of thing, you start feeling more and more "irrelevant" the larger the number.

That I would "like to join"? One.
