Guild System
In the adventure-filled world of Sarnaut, a lone hero faces numerous dangers. These include wild animals, which are rarely friendly, local inhabitants who are not always welcoming to outsiders, and bandits who attack with equal ferocity, whether they are League warriors or Empire soldiers. Of course, there are experienced veterans in the world of "Allods Online" who stand in battles against a dozen ordinary fighters. But even they cannot alone storm an enemy fortress or maneuver an astral ship in combat. There are tasks that can only be accomplished through collective effort. For players who realize all the advantages of cooperative gameplay, "Allods Online" features a guild system.
To organize a guild, it is enough to gather six like-minded individuals and sign the Guild Charter, which can be purchased from special NPCs. The signed document is registered with the same NPC, and from that moment on, the guild is considered established. The one who submits the Charter Scroll for registration is deemed the Guild Master, while the others who signed are its members.
The hierarchical structure of the guild consists of 8 levels. At the top of the pyramid is the Master or Guild Leader, one step below are the officers who perform command functions, followed by ordinary players, who differ from each other in gaming experience, service time, and combat achievements. The lowest level of the hierarchical pyramid is occupied by the penalized — guild members who have been sanctioned by officers for some transgression.
Guild members can communicate with each other through a special chat channel, and commanders have access to an additional privileged chat for communication and coordination of orders. In the guild interface, members can review information about its composition, ranks, and the current status of guild members.
The Guild Leader has full authority in the organization. Only one person can hold this position at a time. They have the power to dismiss and appoint officers, dissolve the guild, or voluntarily relinquish their powers, appointing a new Guild Leader (in this case, they are demoted to the rank of officer). Moreover, the Master retains all officer privileges.
Officers are experienced players appointed by the Master, endowed with special rights to award titles to distinguished guild members and to accept/exclude new participants. This category of commanders also has the right to punish all guild members, except for other officers and the Master, by demoting them to the "penalized" rank. An officer can only be demoted or expelled from the guild by the Master.
A new member of the organization faces a challenging journey from recruit to veteran. An ordinary guild member has access to the team chat and the guild interface, as well as the right to leave the organization freely.
Overall, only three things are required to join a guild: a desire, the consent of one of the officers, and the absence of membership in another guild.
The hierarchical structure of the guild:
- Guild Leader
- Guild Officer
- Guild Veteran
- Honorary Guild Member
- Guild Member
