Finding a Guild in Hardcore

[Hogni]

So...how exactly does one go about finding a guild in Hardcore?

Last season a guild found me. This season we're a couple weeks in and I'm still guildless. None of the people I play with on live are doing hardcore, and I don't really like PUGing, so I've exclusively been soloing, which means no means for meeting people. Other than sending whispers to random guilded folks--which seems both obnoxious and unlikely to work--I don't really know how to go about looking.

I put up an LFM, levels 1-30 asking for a guild invite. Whoever sends the first invite, I join that guild - that's the rule if you're going to do this. :) Basically, it would be incredibly rude to turn down an invite if you use this method.

Alternatively, you can use the social list of who's online and sort by guilds. Find a guild you want to join and find a person who is not listed as being in a quest (another rule). Send that player a tell asking for a guild invite. Don't pester - just one tell asking, then move on to the next if you don't get an invite or a reply.

There are also guilds that post invites to their Discord servers and you can post a request in the appropriate channel.

You're welcome to join Death Smile - if I'm online on Mary send me a tell and I'll send you an invite.

Its hardcore and most guilds are open to invite anyone to level up as quickly as possible until the guild count hits the upper limit.

send a tell to anyone in a guild, if they are an officer they will likely send you a guild invite or refer you to an officer who can.

In my opinion, Air Bud Cinematic is the best guild on HC. Glad I was able to become part of the 5000 club in their colors.

Death smile, and I assume most other big/open guilds have a channel for that. Do /joinchannel death smile

You can ask if there's room in there.
