edited July 2016
The Guild Raiders are currently looking for 1 member to fill our roster!
We're a very active guild and know how to maximize efficiency for our members (active chat room, spreadsheets, strategy discussions, teamwork, etc). Despite our activeness, we also have lives outside the game (family, work, school, etc.) and respect each other's outside commitments. If this sounds interesting to you, please post a response here and keep reading to get a sense of how supportive, friendly and successful our community is! You truly wont regret joining us!
Please check out the second post of this thread for an idea of the activities we track via spreadsheet....awesome teamwork in this guild! You can also find us online at theguildraiders.guildlaunch.com. Send me a PM there, reply here or if you'd like to contact me in game my ally code is 686-186-765 and our guild leader's (Evergoo) is 571-945-848. We look forward to hearing from you
THE GUILD RAIDERS MEMBERSHIP RULES
As we grow, we've found it necessary to establish some rules for the continued benefit, progression and growth of the guild as well as all it's members.
1. Effective June 6, 2016, members will be expected to contribute a minimum of 300 Guild Bank Coins daily to the guild. This requirement can be easily met with the free energy given out every day so this shouldn't inconvenience anyone or alter their playstyle at all. This should result in a weekly contribution of 1500 coins by each member.
2. If anyone can't log in to the game and contribute for 3 consecutive days, you will be dropped from the guild. If you know in advance that you're going to be away for an extended period of time, for any reason, we understand...we're just asking for you to give us notice so we don't drop anyone unnecessarily. Everyone goes on vacation, everyone gets sick....etc. Please just give us a holler and let us know.
In addition, we have set up a weekly raid schedule of T5 on Mondays @6am, Wednesdays @12 pm (Noon), Fridays @6pm & Sa @6am, all PST. We will have an additional raid on the weekends as GBC allows. This will benefit everyone, and with the new requirements we should have no trouble keeping up with the currency demands.
I'd like to thank everyone for contributing to this great community. I believe we all have the same goals of growing our squads and gearing up together to eventually hit that T7 raid! Thanks everyone

A little advice for those that are having trouble finishing your GW's on a daily basis:
First of all. Use your retreats!!!!!! For those that don't know, you can retreat from the node and start all over and it is like it never happened. That means the CPU can kill all of your players but one, and you can retreat and all of your "dead" toons are still available with the same health and cooldown counts that they had before you started the node. You can usually tell in the first one or two rounds if the team you picked is appropriate for that particular opponent.
You can retreat by tapping the settings "cog" in the upper left hand corner of the battle screen. In there you can tap "retreat". Don't worry about the "are you sure" box, it's a complete re-do and you're simply starting the node over with what you had when you started it.
I'm finishing mine every day starting out with 76 QGJ(L), 68 Lumi, 68 Ahsoka, 72 5's and a 74 Phasma, mostly to get the first 4-5 node in quickly. I'll then start pulling Ahsoka for Dooku in for stronger Jedi teams and Eeth in for droid strong teams. Around node 7 I'll usually have Lumi (L), 5's, Phasma, QGJ and Dooku. By the last 2-3 nodes I usually settle on Barris (L), Lumi, Phasma, 5's and I'll use Royal Guard and ST Han as sacrificial lambs. I have a strong enough bench where I can lose people here and still finish out all nodes. Thankfully the team that you're facing will be dead and damaged when you start the node over after all of your toons are killed.
Lastly, when fighting the nodes be sure to save an easy cpu toon to finish the round. Only use your basic attacks against this final toon so you can refresh all of your cooldowns for your toons to use to start out the next node with. this is vital, so you can whittle down the next cpu team before they get a lot of damage in or take out one of your top toons.
- We shattered all our Daily Guild Challenge records last week, including record highs in Energy (17,500+) and reaching the final tier for Galactic Wars and Challenges.
- Our weekly Guild Bank Coins continue to increase dramatically. Daily average for week 1 = 5,041, week 2 = 9,943, and week 3 = 13,702. We should average more than 17,000 next week.
- Currently in discussion with 2-3 guilds about merger opportunities. We should be near 50 by the end of this week.
- Doggirl211 has been promoted to Guild Officer for her contributions to the chat, recruitment, spreadsheets, and daily guild activities.
- Today marks the one-month anniversary of The Guild Raiders! Thank you Meezy, Cabig, Dan08, and Kal Dar'Kin for being The Founding Fathers!!
- TheeeeeeeLongestNamePossible for creating a helpful Galactic Wars guide.
- Mike for putting in double work with two accounts.
- Guild Officers for being thought partners over challenging guild decisions and for collecting data.
- Everyone who helped with recruiting. Without your help, our guild would be stagnant.
- Last but not least, each and every one of you for your unwavering commitment to The Guild Raiders. We are growing every day...because of you.

Save GW's until tonight's guild activity reset and spend energy on LS today!
Next raid (Tier IV) will happen on Friday Noon PST. In order to strengthen the guild, EVERYONE must support ALL members. Therefore, the Guild Officers have decided the following rule for all low-tier raids (Tier IV or lower).
DO NOT RANK IN THE TOP 10 IF YOU ARE LEVEL 70+. YOUR RAID CONTRIBUTIONS WILL BE RECORDED AND ARE SUBJECT TO CONSEQUENCES.
In addition, many of your Guild Officers are supporting low-level players by making them their priority in the Allies List. Please do not be alarmed if you are no longer Allies with the Guild Officers. They are doing what's best to support the guild. Thank you.
As the guild has grown to 50 members, we have had to establish certain rules to ensure we maximize the results for all guild members and stay consistent with our balanced focus of being competitive and collaborative. We've based our rules on the following:
1. Daily Personal Guild Contribution Rule / Daily Guild Activity Rule:
- We are NOT expecting or requiring people to use crystals to meet daily objectives. Crystals come at a premium, and each member can choose whether to use crystals for the guild. The game provides sufficient free energy to meet our daily member targets.
2. Setting of Targets:- We try to be data driven in our setting of targets. We track guild contributions, and strive to assign targets that are reasonable and attainable based on historical data.
3. Raids:Our guild has a lot of fun playing this game and we feel the above rules will ensure each member continues to enjoy the guild experience and maximize the reward for efforts. The GOs are completely open to feedback on the established rules and are happy to discuss as a group.
1. Effective June 6, 2016, members will be expected to contribute a minimum of 300 Guild Bank Coins daily to the guild. This requirement can be easily met with the free energy given out every day so this shouldn't inconvenience anyone or alter their playstyle at all. This should result in a weekly contribution of 1500 coins by each member.
2. If anyone can't log in to the game and contribute for 3 consecutive days, you will be dropped from the guild. If you know in advance that you're going to be away for an extended period of time, for any reason, we understand...we're just asking for you to give us notice so we don't drop anyone unnecessarily. Everyone goes on vacation, everyone gets sick....etc. Please just give us a holler and let us know.
- The Guild Officers had a one-hour meeting Saturday to address guild concerns. We tried our best to make decisions that would positively impact the community.
- As a guild, we CRUSHED our Weekly Guild Bank Coins. We were expected to average 17,000 coins in week 4, but instead earned 23,211! Daily average for week 1 = 5,041, week 2 = 9,943, week 3 = 13,702, and week 4 = 23,211.
- All records for daily Guild Activity Challenges were beaten this week. We also conquered Tier VII for Galactic Wars and Challenges by a wide margin.
- Top 5 Guild Currency Contributors for week 4: 1) @evergoo = 4,324; 2) @Sokkarg = 4,244; 3) @Cabig75 = 4,211; 4) @Geekpreacher = 4,198; and 5) @GulSki = 4,189.
- 17/50 members contributed 600 Guilde Bank Coins every day. 11/50 members contributed 500-599 Guild Bank Coins every day. Thank you for doing your dailies.
- Check out GETTING STRONGER GUIDE to improve your game and knowledge dramatically. Updated the spreadsheet with a bunch of Team Skunk's Top 10 lists (includes video links). You will also find a rundown of all rewards earned per Galactic Wars battle, courtesy of @Doggirl211.
@Cabig was NOT the top guild currency contributor??
Shameful @Cabig, shameful! Gotta step up your game bro
In all seriousness, great job everyone!! That's an impressive jump in contributions!
- Weekly Guild Bank Coins exceeded 150,000+. We raided 4 times this week due to everyone's daily contributions.
- Nearly everyone managed to uphold the new guild rules of 1500 weekly GBC and 3-strikes-you're-out. We have 1 available spot open at the moment.
- Top 4 Guild Currency Contributors for week 5 (in no particular order): @evergoo, @Geekpreacher, @GulSki, @Sokkarg
- With the new update coming, raids will reset after 24 hours of start time. Please take the poll to help establish a consistent raid time. (CLICK HERE)
- We raid Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays every week. If we ever have an excessive amount of Guild Bank Coins, we will raid on the weekend(s), too. Most likely, Saturday.
- Please register and sync your profile (CLICK HERE)
I'd love to sync my profile but it won't accept my player ID. Keeps telling me it's not correct and to check again.....which I've done about a dozen times now lol. So, Im registered but until it decides to accept my actual player ID, I guess I won't show up. I'll keep trying.
(P.S., its not a problem with misreading any of the letters/numbers in my ID....I don't have any idea why it's not accepting it. I've tried it both with and without the hyphen)
@Doggirl211 it took me 3 different days to make it work! Just keep being persistent on another day.
I even had a friend take my phone, write down the in game ID, then check it against what I had entered.....then erase the entry and re-enter the ID herself and it wouldn't take it! Clearly there's a problem somewhere!
But I'll keep trying every day or so just in case it resolves itself.

Currently in a guild but it's not progressing and I'm ready to make the move to one that is more serious (but not too serious). I don't currently have line or anything like that, but happy to get it and connect with everyone to work as a team.
