Big Family (Guild)

-Recruits: 1 month
-Members: 2 months
-Veterans: 3 months
-Officers and Guildmasters: 3 Month (Demotion to Veteran after 1 month)

Should there be more member requests than space, then the recruit with longest offline time will be kicked.

-You will leave the guild.

Every demotion will be discussed with the guildmasters and approved by Dinosauer.
Officers are allowed to audit Membership and Veteran-Tests. Guildmasters are allowed to audit every test except the guildmastertest.
Officers and guildmasters are allowed to invite new recruits, but need to have a look that they don't have nasty names.
Breaches of the rules will lead to demotion to rank veteran.

Every officer and guildmaster was instructed and has aggreed on this additional rules.

Everyone is invited to spend money for it, but nobody is forced to. The easiest way is to do a Vana-run with four persons and spend all earnings afterwards.
If everybody do so once a week, then we would be able to have a very beautiful Guildhall.

Shouldn't there be enough money for upkeeping, we will cancel as much rooms as needed to have the upkeep paid.

According to prior agreement from Dinosauer it is possible to buy, create and upkeep an own room.
It goes without saying that stuff from private-rooms are not to be redecorated or removed except from the owner himself.
If the upkeep from an owner is not paid until wednesdays noon, the owner has to pay a double upkeep as punishment.
Why double? Because we also have to pay the double upkeep to unlock the guildhall again, if we didn't make it to pay the upkeep.
If the upkeep is payable even without the missing upkeep from the roomowner, the missing roomupkeep is to be paid to "Unterhalt".
If the missing roomupkeep is responsible for a Guildhallsealing, the roomowner must pay the upkeep anyway to unlock the guildhall again.
Anybody that owns a room and who is not responsible for the sealing doesn't have to pay their upkeep during the sealingtime of course.
The upkeep of their rooms is to be paid also by the person who was responsible for the sealing. If the upkeep is still not payable from the owner,
the owner will be dispossessed and the rooms and the furniture will be belong to the community then.
A future renting is only possible if the arrears inclusive the penalty is payed at once to "Unterhalt" and the upkeep for the first week of the new renting is paid in advance to guildtreasury.
Buying furniture and redecorating furniture from public rooms are only made by Dinosauer or Kampfkuh.
Should there be anything that needs to be changed in the guildhall, then this is to be discussed with mentioned persons.
Breaches of this rule will be punished immediately with demotion to rank member. A promotion after this punishment is only possible with a special payment to the guildhall.
The height of this payment is decided by the guildmasters. Anyway a special payment does not allow any (further) redecorations.

If someone is caught in the design mode (even if it is without saving) then this person gets a warning. If this person is caught again, he will be demoted also to rank member.

In the Guildstorage you can put materials, weapons, armors and recipes. The guildstorage is not bought to enrich some persons and make some persons poorer.
Everybody that takes out something of it should pay something other from at least same value into it. For example: a recruit that is doing Snarbolaxruns have a lot of sharp fang materials, that he doesn't use.
If he needs some materials that are dropped by doing Jelly King or Vanaduke, then he should give some of his materials that are dropped on Snarbolaxruns.
If someone needs a rare 3-Star recipe that is not available in the hall of heroes, then he should exchange it to another 3-Star recipe that is also not available in the hall of heroes.
In very special cases, that a recipe from guildstorage is urgently needed, and you don't have any recipe to give as exchange you may pay in materials with same value.

Same rules effect weapons and armors in the guildstorage.

We have an energyfountain, but it is not placed at the moment for the community because we cannot see a benefit for our guild at the moment.
Those who want to have an energyfountain in their own room needs to make sure that a suitable door (member-door, veterans-door, officers-door) is installed to make sure it is inaccessable for recruits.
Everyone that places an Energyfountain in their rooms is alone responsible for it. Even in case of theft the injured person has to follow up the payback alone.
If the circumstance is not able to be cleared by the injured party alone, the injured party can request a judgement from the guildfounder. In any case the injured party needs to prove the accusation.
If a judgement is delivered and the payback isn't done after one week, the injuring party will leave the guild automatically and will be banned permanently.
It is recommended that the payback with crystalenergy will be done by way of an officer or guildmaster so that the officer/guildmaster can attest that the payback was done.

As long as the penalty is not paid, the injuring party will be demoted to rank recruit.

One Snarbolax-Run without dying. You have to kill every enemy. The auditor will only watch and don't help. The test can be audited from every officer or guildmaster.

Every Dangerprestige without dying. If you collected all, you will get a final theoretical test. The tests can be audited only from Dinosauer (Guildfounder)

Special Requirements for doing Guildmaster-Test: Title "Officer", you have to have Shivermist Buster AND Blitzneedle and you are willing to take over a job in the guild.

The guildranking is implemented to see at one sight who is able to help you and who is good for what job. You also might find easyier a party to help you on your way.
Another Benefit is the increased access to the guildhall and the guildstorage, which gives you more security for your exchange objects.

Besides that you have the benefit of beeing allowed to stay longer offline with every guildrank (see General Information about "Big Family").

The Acheron is very good for Slime and passably good for Beast. The first serious enemys for beginners will be beast (Snarbolax) and slime (Jelly King), so this is the weapon to be made first. I wouldn't create the Gran Faust because you can curse yourself with a charged hit, your weapon is slower and it makes only 2 hits in a row. Ok, the weapon is lightly stronger on each hit, but against more enemys it could be that you can't do the second hit without beeing hitted by one of the enemys.

I prefer the Combuster. The Glacius and the Voltedge don't deal as much damage in total as the Combuster, but provides calm due to the frost and shock that is dealt to the enemys. The Combuster is very strong for Jelly-King-Runs and also the most effective for Vanadukeruns although it does not fire the enemys. It is kind of all-round because the charge damage is not blocked by the status it deals. Besides that the Voltedge is just available in exchange of Krogmo Coins (Lockdown).

I prefer the Final Flourish more than the Barbarous Thorn Blade because the chargeattack is a combo that hits fully one enemy instead of several spikes that flies towards the enemys in a semi circle and some of them doesn't hit anyone. Besides that both swords are equal but the recipes for the Barbarous-Thorn-Blade-Line are not to be found it the hall of heroes but need to be collected by hard work in the clockworks. I wouldn't choose the variants Rigadoon and Flamberge either. They probably stun or flambe the enemys, but deal less damage to the enemys in total.

On one hand this gun is "only" an elementary weapon but it is very all-round. It has big bullets that hits almost always. If you stand close to the enemy they deal less damage and doesn't knock back the enemys but when you stand further the bullets deal more damage and knock back the enemys. Depending on whether you need more room or just want to kill the enemy fast you can use the weapon very differently. Some people like also the Argent Peacemaker, but I think that it is not better than the Polaris because you can not knock back enemys and you need to fire 6 bullets to deal the damage of 3 bullets from the polaris. Besides that you have to aim carefully to hit with every shot, because the bullets are very thin.

The Blitzneedle eases the killing of Vanaduke very much because it deals piercingdamage (Vanaduke has a slightly weakness for piercingdamage) and in comparison to other weapons deals it enormous damage with one charged shot. The disadvantage of this weapon is that you can't move while shooting. So you need to have a very good timing or a teammate that has a Shivermist Buster with him. (It is a pity that there is no better piercingweapon (or at least one where you can move while shooting.)

This Bomb is not absolutely necessary because in most cases it is kind of kid's stuff, but at Vanadukes it is recommended because it calms and eases the whole fight.

The Skolverset is an armor against piercing. It is ideal for fights against beast and slime. There are sure also other armors that protect from piercingdamage but the Skolverset has a damagebonus for swords and therefore helps killing enemys. In addition I find the Skolverset the most beautiful piercingequipment.

The Vog-Cub-Set is an armor against elemental damage. It is the elemental complement to the Skolver and looks as great as it. Though it has no damagebonus it provides an increased attack speed for swords. Besides that it protects from fire, so you can take it also for your first Vanaduke experiences.

At last we need a shadowarmor to have every damage covered. The Snarbolaxset is the shadow complement to the Skolver and Vog Cub and has also a damagebonus for swords. It is a pity that the Snarbolaxset is only available in the shadow lair but it is the better choice for swordsmen. If you think of becoming a gunman you would do better with choosing the Shadowsunset because it has a damagebonus for guns. For the same reason it is better to choose for a Vanadukerun when you have your Blitzneedle with you.

The Barbarous Thorn Shield is a wonderful shield agains piercing that provides also a damagebonus for swords. In combination with the Skolverset or the Snarbolaxset you can reach the maximum damage for swords.

The Grey Owlite Shield is a elemental shield which provides additional protection against fire and shock. You can use it therefore for Roarmulus Twins because of the shockresistance and for the first Vanadukeruns because of the fireresistance.

The Crest of Almire is a shield against shadowdamage with additional protection against fire and shock and therefore it is best for Vanadukeruns because the most enemys deal shadowdamage and it protects you from the fire that is almost everywhere. The disadvantage is that you can receive the preversion "Blackened Crest" only by exchangeing the coins that you not receive before Vana.
