Dark Hearts is a highly active guild which caters to skilled players. We offer a friendly environment where we specialize in boss runs and help fellow members complete missions and general runs in the Arcade. We also do Shadow Lair runs, as long as there are four guild members who are willing to split the cost of a Shadow Key together.

Dark Hearts has developed into a large, popular and highly active guild which caters for skilled players. We offer a friendly and relaxed environment for members to improve equipment and skills, and to share various experiences with eachother. We do regular PvE boss runs and help fellow members in the completion of their missions etc. We also do Shadow Lair runs, as long as there are four guild members who are willing to split the cost of a Shadow Key. The guild was set up more for social reasons, however we do often participate in such things like guild vs guild lockdown as long as enough people want to take part. Memebers also enjoy searching random PvP together on both EU and USA servers in a bid to face off against eachother, previous events have included lockdown tournaments. We also have a Guild Steam page where members running the game through Steam can recieve regular updates on any upcoming Guild contests, giveaways and major events! 
  
== Recruitment ==
+
We are always looking to bring new members into our ranks, if you are considering joining please read all of the information below!
At the moment we are recruiting people with suitable, proper gear. If you are interested, send a message to Alexdn.  
+
 
 +
== Guild Rules ==
 +
 
 +
We have some simple rules that should be followed to keep the guild good
 +
 
 +
1. Be respectful to other guild members. Solve any disputes outside of guild chat. If the dispute can’t be solved please contact me or an officer to help.
 +
 
 +
2. Don’t be greedy, be helpful. Help other guild mates out by offering stuff for free (e.g. materials) or at prices below the auction house/ market. Recipes should be sold at the same price as the Basil vendor. Obviously when trading with non-guild members try getting as much profit as you can!
 +
 
 +
3. People in the guild should be kind and generous to each other. However there should be NO begging or scamming of any sort taking place. Anything serious could lead to reports being made and being removed from the guild. Stealing large quantities of items/mats from the guild storage or attempting to steal energy in the Officer area is not tolerated – You will be removed without warning and you could get a ban. It’s not worth it, don't take the risk.
 +
 
 +
4. Guild events may be held and prizes given out. If you have any ideas for events and competitions and want to run them please feel free to share them. There are usually projects going on to improve our Guild hall- ask me for more details if you would like to know about the current project!
 +
 
 +
5. You are expected to make a donation to the guild treasury to help pay for the guild hall upkeep cost and any improvements. If you wish to pay for a few weeks in advance you must notify me. Who is donating is tracked and recorded weekly via a spreadsheet. Placing items in member/ veteran storage is at own risk. However you are encouraged to deposit your mats/items to help out other guildies!
 +
 
 +
6. Guild mates will be likely to be running all sorts of different runs. If you want to set up a run or join a run please ask first over the guild chat for party members or pm the person you want to join on to. Getting into parties normally doesn’t take much time or effort via the guild chat so please try and avoid invite spamming as some people can get annoyed by it.
 +
 
 +
WARNING: if you are inactive for around a month (and no reason is given) you WILL be removed from the guild. I regularly check for in-active members, usually at some point every month. Also guild chat can get a bit crazy sometimes so try keep this in mind!
  
 
== Requirements ==
 
== Requirements ==
To be invited and accepted by the guild master or officers, you must show trust and interest in the game. If accepted into the guild, you must display your guild's name proudly. We only accept people with a 3 to 5 star category arsenal and equipment. Upon being a a part of our guild, you must be trusted to behave in a mannered way, according to our guild rules and regulations (this goes for guild and officer chat) and you must always help other guild members. Of course, we are a highly social guild and you'll often find us messing about in the Guild Hall. Contributions will be required from guild members to fund and maintain guild hall expansion, which will be further explained.

 +
To be invited into the guild you must contact the Guild Master (Alexdn) or one of the Guilds officers. To be sent an invite you must have atleast full 4 star gear. This is to simply ensure that new members entering the guild have sufficient knowledge and understanding of the game, as well as high enough level equipment to take part in the various runs and activities that take place. To stay in the guild is simple, you must not go inactive more than 1 month, you must not break the Guild rules that you must agree to before becoming member. In addition you must pay your weekly fees to help pay for the Guild Hall upkeep and any current furnishing/ expansion projects.

We pride ourselves in showing off a stylish guild hall which serves as our social hang-out spot or a mini-Haven of sorts. Due to this, all guild members will be required to pay a weekly fee which will be used for upkeep and expansions, depending on their rank in the guild. This is maintained in order to ensure that we can keep the guild hall the way it is and at the same time expand it to create a unique experience for guild members who want to hang out or relax in the guild hall.

To pay for this and any other projects that we are working on, for example Boss statue furnishings, everybody in the guild needs to pay a small donation each week.

About Us

Dark Hearts has developed into a large, popular and highly active guild which caters for skilled players. We offer a friendly and relaxed environment for members to improve equipment and skills, and to share various experiences with eachother. We do regular PvE boss runs and help fellow members in the completion of their missions etc. We also do Shadow Lair runs, as long as there are four guild members who are willing to split the cost of a Shadow Key. The guild was set up more for social reasons, however we do often participate in such things like guild vs guild lockdown as long as enough people want to take part. Memebers also enjoy searching random PvP together on both EU and USA servers in a bid to face off against eachother, previous events have included lockdown tournaments.
