Being a member of a guild has many benefits, and collaboration is key in Albion Online. Joining a guild allows you to engage in Guild Warfare, find players for group activities, enjoy the safety of Hideouts and Territories as well as advancing and upgrading your Conquerors Challenge more easily.
Guild Warfare
During Guild Seasons, players can work with their guild to
conquer and
raid territories, take over
castles and engage in various challenges in order to earn
Season Points that will benefit both the guild as a whole and its individual members.
Season Structure
Each Guild Season lasts approximately
12 weeks and can be split into 3 segments of 4 weeks each, bookended by Invasion Days. During these, all territories become neutral and must be recaptured, with guilds needing to take down a Territory Guardian in order to claim a Territory Tower for themselves.

Outside of Invasion Days, territories can be raided, and have attacks declared on them, during their
prime time, which depends on their region. Prime time lasts for one hour, at the end of which a percentage of a territorys Raw and Siphoned Energy is converted into Season Points.
The first two parts of the season award regular points, while territory Season Points are
doubled during the
final four weeks.
Earning Season Points
Season Points can be generated through many different types of content. Even a guild that doesnt hold territories or isnt focusing on PvP can rank high enough to declare their own Headquarters.
Territories
Holding territories as a guild is a great way to generate a lot of
Season Points. After capturing a territory on an Invasion Day or after a successful attack you can level it up using
Power Crystals. Higher level territories generate more points, while the quality of the region amplifies this effect.

If your guild is part of an
alliance, Season Points gained from territories will be shared with them. 50% of all points go directly to your guild, while the remaining 50% are split amongst all other guilds inside the alliance, including your own.
Holding many territories as a guild or alliance also increases the
Control Cost. If this number exceeds 15, a
Siphoned Energy Drain is applied, and if it exceeds 25 all individual members face Fame and Silver penalties.
Guild Might Levels
Guild Might Levels allow every guild member to contribute to the guilds effort through different activities. Each level attained will directly earn the guild a certain amount of Season Points.
If youre in a guild and you want to look up your guilds progress, you can do so within the Guild UI.
Guild Challenge
The Guild Challenge is an additional tool for players to contribute Season Points. You can level this up by acquiring
Challenge Points. These can be obtained by killing mobs, gathering, or fishing, and are identical to those used to progress in the Adventurers Challenge. Daily bonus points do not count towards the Guild Challenge.
Benefits for the guild
Guilds can make a name for themselves by conquering and holding numerous objectives in the Outlands, while climbing up the
season rankings. This both increases their visibility for new members, and grants valuable rewards.
Controlling territories generates Siphoned Energy, which acts as a passive income for guilds. Guilds can use Silver to launch attacks on enemy territories, upgrade guild infrastructure, or give out regears or other benefits to their members. The more Season Points a guild attains, the better the location in which they can declare a
Headquarters Hideout. Headquarters Hideouts are a special form of Hideout that become invulnerable to enemy attacks as long as they receive enough power from Power Cores.

Here is an overview of how many Season Points you need to declare a Headquarters in different regions:
- 200,000: Quality 6 / Tier 8
- 120,000: Quality 5 / Tier 8
- 80,000: Quality 4 / Tier 8
- 40,000: Quality 3 / Tier 7
- 20,000: Quality 3 / Tier 6
- 10,000: Quality 1 / Tier 6
- 1,000: Roads of Avalon
Benefits to Guild Members
Players can get a number of rewards by actively participating in guild activities. If the guild owns Hideouts or territories they can use
Power Cores and
Power Crystals to level their Hideouts and territories respectively while gaining a significant amount of
Might for their personal
Conquerors Challenge, and earn
Favor to purchase additional items at the Energy Manipulator.
Owning territories and Hideouts as a guild also provides safety to your members. Here they can meet, store their equipment, or seek shelter from an enemy group. Leveling up a Hideout using Power Cores also increases the resource return rate of items crafted there, which is a great way for crafters to increase their profit margins.
Additionally, climbing the guild rankings will upgrade your personal
Conquerors Chest within the Conquerors Challenge.

When a territory generates siphoned energy, all guild members will also get a daily might bonus that they can claim in their Conquerors Challenge UI.
Personal Rewards
You can also gain
Might and
Favor when actively playing and participating in guild activities.
Might is used to progress in the Conquerors Challenge, which can be viewed in the
Activities UI. Advancing your Conquerors Challenge will unlock a Small, Medium or Grand Conquerors Chest, each becoming more valuable. In addition, if your guild reaches a higher rank it will also upgrade the Conquerors Chest which expands and increases the rewards.
This can include battle mounts, temporary fame buffs, unique avatars and artifacts for Crystal Weapons.
You can also receive a
Grand Conquerors Chest every week for reaching 20,000 Might. If you don't attain this in a week, your progress will carry over to the next week.
Might is earned through activities in
lethal areas, including guild objectives, PvE, Gathering, Hellgates, and more. Some Might is also gained when your guild levels up within a season bracket.
Favor can be used at the Energy Manipulator to purchase various items like Tomes of Insight, Siphoned Energy or Avalonian Crests. Favor is gained from activities that award Might but dont have direct loot associated with them, such as
Power Crystals,
Power Cores, or some
PvE activities. In addition, you can earn Favor for every 5,000, 10,000 and 15,000 Might earned every week.

Guilds play a central role in the world of Albion, so if youre interested in joining one yourself you can use the Guild Finder to find one and begin your quest to conquer Albion!
