I am curious, what are the top guilds right now? How many maps have they cleared? I am very interested now that the Guild Wars will be starting soon.
I am currently part of Elite, but it is hard to gauge where we stand in comparison to other guilds. All members are lvl 55-75. We are a large chunk of the way through map 4 and have cleared the other maps multiple times.
I personally am level 70, top rank of 2 in the Arena (but usually between 8-20). Power level around 7700. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.

Elite was always in my 'join guild' section when I first start playing. Like near the top. Which is sorted by contribution, I know. My point is you have been around a long time now Bring on wars!!

My guild, Vixtrix Mortalis, is on 5-9 atm. The main issue now is that with the 140,000 weekly energy cap, resetting the higher maps cost so much you can't reset any other maps so your captains/gm has to decide what to open and when. Map 4 reset costs 135,000 alone so even more for 5 & 6.

Would be frustrating if you need a shard from map 1 for a 5☆.. And its the last map they reopen.. And double wooow for 5-9, what's the average level of player?

IGNORE THIS POST! MISINFORMATION!
(only kept because it was quoted)
Vixtrix Mortalis is crazy selective. You get kicked for not contributing 400 points daily, doing less than 40,000 damage and applying for 5* shards.
And of course they'll deny it, but I have 3 in-game friends who tell me otherwise.

Would be frustrating if you need a shard from map 1 for a 5☆.. And its the last map they reopen.. And double wooow for 5-9, what's the average level of player? I'd estimate the average is ~67. 140,000 is 50x400=20,000x7=140,000 so MAX weekly contributions would be 140,000 weekly and we aren't hitting that currently. If you are able to clear maps to get the time bonus, this is for sure the bottleneck in the whole operation. It is going to be very frustrating for people in the future since those 20 shards you've been saving up might never amount to anything if your guild doesn't want to keep those maps open. Some sort of rotation is needed which means if your in a guild with no communication, things are going to get rough pretty soon.

Almost be tempting to join a new guild... but rewards at this maps are pretty nice. Something to think about... cheers mate

And of course they'll deny it, but I have 3 in-game friends who tell me otherwise. Its not that bad! The requirements are only half that for energy/damage and shard distribution is first come first serve for everything. Most everyone contributes 350+ (which isn't that hard, 288 from static time gain, 80 from blessings (120 with star) and 64 max from friends is over 400 right there! Damage wise it isn't too hard to get 50K plus with there are ~5-7 creatures up.

If VM is the Guild with Stargazer in it then I totally misspoke and I apologize, just talked to my friend and his response was, "Who's Vixtrix Mortalis?" !!!!! I don't like the LINE app requirement for certain Guilds, my phone blows up enough as is.

I was against getting that app and I just turned off the notifications. I actually find myself in that chat room more than on any other social media since its a pretty active chat channel for our guild. Tons of good info/ideas get tossed around in there for sure!

I appreciate the forgiveness but I should be a lot more careful and get my facts straight. Good to hear that VM is knowledgeable and helpful, way too many Guilds are next to useless like my old one. No communication and no teamwork.

Elite just finished map 4, but we haven't opened map 5 yet. We are going to start having to not open the lower level maps it looks like... Same issue as VM.

You get kicked for applying for 5* shards This honestly is the way to go. Would require a very high level of organization. You would just need to have some other place for people to request creatures. Then simply have the 2 captains and leaders hand out the shards till that person gets 50. (and for speed purposes that person at the top of the list can request on their own.) You get 35-40 shards each time you complete a chapter so you'd be handing out full 5* creatures at a decent rate. And then folks can just request 4* and less creatures and essences at a first come first serve basis. And if you want to keep it even more fair, you might say that if you request a 5* creature that you are not eligible to request 4* and less. In my guild we must have completed map 1 at least 6 times now. That's 16 full 5* creatures instead of our current scenario where no one has any. Just really no way to do it in my guild (Scylla) though. Only half the folks are even on the chat. Would be nice if IGG implemented an improved feature where the guild master could choose to do it this way (a first come first server way where if you are first it accumulates up to 50 shards then hands out a 5* creature). But that wouldn't fit their financial strategy. Or at a minimum be able to hand out as many shards as you want. By restricting captains and the leader to 1 shard an hour you are basically going out of your way to try and restrict the number of 5* creatures handed out.

The only problem with giving 5*s to certain players is that most of the other members won't be getting anything.
This is a game of patience, but unfortunately nobody seems to have it.

But that wouldn't fit their financial strategy. Or at a minimum be able to hand out as many shards as you want. By restricting captains and the leader to 1 shard an hour you are basically going out of your way to try and restrict the number of 5* creatures handed out. So the consensus in my guild is 48 shards per map. Personally I haven't paid that much attention but I trust them. Our guild has discussed different options and came full circle to first come first serve. It is just too much work with the current system for captains/GM to track who gets what since they aren't the "master looters" (sorry for all the WoW references today!) We are similar with ~2/3rds of our guild actively communicating on a daily basis so getting all 50 people to pass on shards so one person can apply 48 times is pretty unrealistic. 100% agree that IGG should do something to fix this system, but I highly doubt it. Further, for those guilds that don't communicate, what would stop the GM/captains from keeping all the shards after a clear? The current system gives you something at least which keeps you hooked for the next 8 months to get the other 49 shards. I actually suggested a similar system with our guild for the higher maps since we won't be opening them regularly, and was told it was too much work and we won't be opening them again for a long time so it isn't worth the effort. I suggested for map 6, everyone applied for a creature, then we voted as a guild on who we felt should get each creature. If selected, that person couldn't apply for ANY shards/creatures/cards from ANY map aside from that Map 6 creature until the next person in line for a map 6 creature had finally received their completed creature to take their place sitting out. Basically taking 4 actively applying people out of competition for ~2 months. Major draw back to any system change would be abuse, or guild hopping. If you got that Paragon from map 6 and knew you were SOL for the next 2 months, why stick around if another competing guild would have you and has a different system for shards? TLDR: IGG won't change anything, and its too dang hard to organize 50 people!

Yes pretty much the only way to do it would be to set up a separate sight with all the creatures you get from the maps. Then set up a first come first serve selection for those creatures. Then you just have the nightmare of policing it. (which would likely go: warning, warning, kick).

I haven't heard of any guilds on map 6 yet but the top ones are on map 5, the great guilds on map 4, good guilds on map 3 and then most of the guilds are on map 1 (new guilds formed) and 2.

Wight Knights cleared map 6 almost a month ago, contribution is the biggest thing holding progress back. It requires 250k to reset the final map, which is a minimum of 12 1/2 days max contribution from a guild of 50 members. Once everything is cleared it just becomes a big waiting game :/

They all use Wight, hence the name Wight Knights. Basically a Guild full of Guild Map specialists sprinkled with a healthy dose of p2p players. They are this game's version of an All-Star team.

100% agree that WK are the All-stars of DH currently, and with melding 5* creatures they will continue to pull farther away from us mere mortals/indebted recent graduates. With how much those guys in Wight Knights know about this game, I'd think it would be silly to say they always use Wight, 100% of the time just due to their guild name. While the math has been proven in another thread about how much damage death curse can do, I'm positive if there is any reason to use another hero on a certain map WK has figured it out and is abusing the heck out of it. We have guys in my guild doing 750k plus with Neander spikey bits, and Thor is a BEAST on guild map with his abilities increasing Phantom Liege to do 26k per hit x3 targets. I'd bet there are multiple people in WK using Thor instead of Wight.
