Do you even need a guild in World of Warcraft now?

Then you miss out on the whole guild thing. Personally I don't see the necessity to have a guild if you're doing everything solo.

 

exactly that's what makes it fun

 

lol

 

Guild is not a must honestly. You can play without that. But for me, I think I have too. It's more enjoyable for me to have one.

No, you're right. You don't need a guild, especially if you have IRL friends playing the game too. But when you do join a guild I think it's for the benefit of socializing.

 

And being troublemakers together. There is nothing like trolling rival players with your guild lol

 

but its kinda boring without guild. the whole concept of a unified army gets me thrilled ;p

 

I think that playing solo is something that I would prefer over a guild, because I prefer one-player games.

 

I honestly think it's good to at least offer a possibility to go to raids and dungeons without needing a guild. People who really want to get "better" at it will end up in a guild anyways for coordination reasons (among many, many other reasons).

Also, guilds don't serve a mechanical function only, they are also spaces to socialize, know people and share experiences. So I don't think no one "needs" to be in a guild, but that is not necessarily bad, there are still many reasons for "wanting" to be in one.

 

Yes, I do think we need a guild in World of Warcraft now. If you want to know how to find a WoW guild in-game, here are some ways:

1. In-game guild finder tool
2.Guilds advertising in trade chat
3. Advertise in trade chat yourself
4. Accept the random invite that pops up
5. Find a guild in Blizzard forums
6. Use the wowguilds subreddit
7. Ask players on your server about their guild
8. Start your own guild
