Guilds
Guilds are community-driven player clans in Kintara that allow players to team up, coordinate efforts, and manage shared goals. Being a member of a guild provides active gameplay benefits, while requiring collective resource contributions to remain active.
Features & Management
- Member Scaling: Guilds can be upgraded to grow their roster size, expanding from a starting capacity of 5 members up to a maximum of 20 members.
- Custom Tags: Guild leaders can set a unique, stylized guild tag (e.g., `[YN]`) to identify members in the Wilderness.
- Ranks & Management: Leaders can promote members to **Managers** to assist with recruiting, moderation, and operational duties.
Guild Life (Upkeep)
To keep a guild active and maintain its passive bonuses, members must collectively contribute resources to fund its remaining **Guild Life** duration. If the Guild Life timer reaches zero, features or benefits may be temporarily suspended.
Burn Rate
The rate at which Guild Life drains scales dynamically with the size of the roster:
- Mechanic: Bigger guilds drain faster.
- For example, a guild with 11 members carries a **x2.2 burn rate multiplier**.
Resource Contributions
Any member can contribute resources directly from their inventory or bank account. The base resource exchange rate required to fund **1 day of guild life** is:
| Material | Required Amount | Source / Skill |
|---|---|---|
| 1,000 | Gathered via Woodcutting | |
| 750 | Gathered via Mining | |
| 500 | Mined from coal nodes | |
| 500 | Created via Cooking |
Players can utilize quick-deposit buttons to add **+1 Day**, **+5 Days**, or **+10 Days** worth of upkeep at a time, provided the guild bank or personal inventory has the total materials required.
User Interface
The Guild system menu is divided into four main functional panels:
- Guild Life: Monitors remaining upkeep time, member burn rates, and material contribution inputs.
- Guild Panel: Handles roster changes, rank promotions, and custom settings.
- Search: Allows players to look up open or recruiting clans.
- Leaderboard: Visualizes the top ranking guilds across the world.
