Primer for new and returning players

Hi folks,

I've been playing since launch back in 2012, and am now the leader of my own guild which helps new players. I don't come here often and I rarely post, so I hope you'll excuse me if this feels like a shameless plug. That said, it's more about sharing this guide I've been writing for the last week than it is a promotion for my guild. The guide can be accessed for free on our Discord server, and doesn't require membership in the guild or any kind of special role, but if you decide you'd like to join we'll be in touch to help you.

From Reddit:"Hearth of Owl - New player primer:https://discord.gg/UYmd4mw

This is a well organized and public resource that I plan to keep updated for my guild, and is available on our discord server without a membership or role. It's a bit lengthy, but it provides a great foundational understanding of everything from the basics to the technical stuff, and links to relevant wiki articles and a wide assortment of online resources that veterans have already been using for years.

If you have feedback after reading, or if you'd like to be invited to the guild, feel free to DM me or drop a message into the spam channel."

And one more post about the guild itself:"Hearth of Owl is a PvE guild with a core of veteran endgame players willing and able to help new and returning players put the vastly expanded PvE world of GW2 into context in order to progress! Whether you're just starting out, or you're level 80 and looking to get into some seriously lucrative farm or raid training, we can help!

I've recently completed work on a new player primer that, while lengthy, gives players a rock-solid understanding of the game and it's wide variety of content.What we offer:

• Founded in September 2019 following the announcement of Icebrood Saga.
• Veteran knowledge about every release dating back to launch in 2012.
• We are happy to accept members of every experience level including those that are brand new. Rank is granted based on PvE progression and community involvement.
• Spoiler-free discord community, which includes an in-depth singular resource for new and returning players to familiarize themselves with the game.
• Aimed at PvE content, especially in keeping everyone up-to-date about Icebrood Saga as it releases (without spoilers).
• Windswept Haven guild hall level 42. All tavern buffs. Free consumables and feasts. Waypoint discount will soon reach the maximum 15%.
• Recently partnered with Gw2crafts.net as the new Scribing guild. Players can use our unlocked scribe recipes to fully master the discipline at our guild's workshop.

To be invited, either stop by our discord server or send an in-game mail or whisper to ecstaseed.2109https://discord.gg/BavHsUP

There is a guild recruitment forum for this sort of thing.At the very least, you should include if you are NA or EU....

And here I thought the gem store had a free primer for everyone

Guys it's a guide for helping new players. I posted it in players helping players. And the guild and guide both are available to NA and EU, but since you asked most of us are on NA.
