Resonance - Australian Guild

[Nymaen]

Resonance is a semi-hardcore PvX Oceanic Guild Wars 2 guild with a very strong focus towards WvW. We are looking for mature individuals who are passionate about what they do, motivated to achieve goals and have a laid-back and positive attitude.

We are opening up recruiting again for WvW-focused individuals who are willing to assist help out our home server Eredon Terrace in our Oceanic prime-time. We are looking for players of all professions, because what we are looking for are guys and gals that have a positive attitude, and are willing to work with the guild to kick some collective ass in Dub v Dub.

While mostly Australian and New Zealand, we do have a few members from the broader Oceanic region and we’re connected with a broader community to increase the awesome. We're an eclectic mix of incredible people who enjoy discussing Guild Wars 2 while hanging out on the forums or voice chat and making friends in our downtime. At our most productive we're creating, producing and participating in things none of us expected we'd do when we started Resonance.

We intend to make a name for ourselves in the Oceanic and GW2 communities, and be involved as much as one guild possibly can. We are a strong force and have much to offer to the atmosphere on our home server of choice. Our philosophy is to be a community first, to promote an atmosphere that allows all members to feel comfortable in their own gaming styles and respected for who they are. This also promotes a lighter atmosphere when competing, which radiates into the performance of players.

To support our philosophy goals we expect members are mature, understanding and willing to communicate. While not mutually exclusive to each other, we prefer to grant merit based on the quality of involvement and input within the community, over quantity. We also know real life needs to come first, and will not penalize members for this, however it is important that members accept realistic goals for achievement within the time they have to participate.

We intend to conquer challenging PvE content, as well as owning the PvP and WvW battlefields. Though in-between kicking butt we're also quite likely to be found exploring the world and getting up to no good or starting pick-up games of tag in the city. The idea of bar brawls is extremely alluring to this lot, and if there's random shenanigans happening in the game world, we're probably involved.

While we strive to educate ourselves on the mechanics of GW2 to do well in both PvE and PvP we pride ourselves in finding the humour in our “derp” moments and being able to move on. At the end of the day we aim to harbor a cohesive community and enjoy ourselves in everything we do in and out of game together; life is far too short to be serious all the time.

Resonance offers scheduled WvW, off-peak WvW activity, and regularly scheduled guild events spanning from sPvP to PvE content to fun social nights. Resonance is apart of Ascension Alliance, and is a part of the great Oceanic guild coordination in WvW across the server. We're looking to bring on board more Oceanics to our guild and server to give us a larger player pool during our prime time and help our server improve competition in top tier WvW.

Resonance is now nearing 130+ members strong and growing in numbers. We are looking for applications with personality, as we are growing more selective with our successful applicants.

When I made the original post here our guild was just growing. In the 6 weeks we've been together this guild has grown in members and in community. We run social gaming nights, band together for GW2 HoM helping and are planning events for public beta weekend events for our pre-purchasing members. Our forums and voice chat are very active as well and our members are very excited about the game release and looking forward to more members enjoy the game with.

Somehow I overlooked the original post. My apologies... belated welcome to this forum to you and Resonance!

Just wanted to put out there that we're going into this beta with nearly all members having pre-purchased! We're about to hit 100 members as well. We've got some big plans for beta weekend, including a live stream event through Guild Wars 2 Live.

We're open to impressive applications and are quite pleased with how well our current member base is going.

Updated our recruitment post to reflect our current membership.

"However, we also hold the opinion that we should not be joining the "unofficial" Oceanic server, because if we are all grouped together, we will have fewer people to play against in WvW."

^^ Smartest thing I've seen a guild say in some time. Kudos.

Updated recruitment ad with our new design.
