This guild attendance reward event needs work. I'm speaking for all those small guilds. It's fine if you want guilds to grow, and I even agree with that logic, but this event will make small guilds feel punished. Take into consideration that this event provides 14 days of rewards, and 15 days to claim them. The event is meant to encourage people to grow their guild since they give you a whole month to reach 70 memebers. This makes the gameplay experience more enjoyable. This is a good idea. 

The problem lies with the 15 day limit. No matter what, if your guild doesn't have 30 members when the event starts, guilds miss out on rewards. And with all the big guilds out there that people prefer to join over small ones, it is almost impossible to recruit so many in such a short time. People would have to call in favors from other guilds to borrow members or make alternate accounts to invite alts. A single day is not enough time for a 10-15 player guild to recruit 15-20 people. There has to be more time given to guilds to actually recruit people for the event.

Starting an event like this, but providing no time beforehand to let guilds build up their members when that's the entire point of the guild event, can have the opposite effect an event like this was meant to have, especially since the rewards themselves are REALLY good. Players will leave guilds. Guild Masters will disband guilds, or give someone else GM and leave to join a bigger one.

The event needs an extension. Maybe a week sounds fair. As it is now. It just doesn't make sense to give players a whole month just to receive 1 title, and guild funds/experience, yet only give 15 days to claim really good attendance rewards, with only ONE DAY to recruit members beforehand.

Okay, I normally stand to say YES they need to be longer, but on PC the guild attendance rewards were a JOKE. 30 meh items that you only get once every 6 month cycle (yes 6 months every refresh - so after 30 days GG need to wait 5 more months to get new rewards). So here as it does suck for small guilds, I know, my PC guild is only 18 members, trust me these items aren't make or break for anything. But I'm glad they are doing rewards that don't lapse every 6 months at putting effort into making guild rewards actually a thing here. Sure the medium guild is a little much maybe small 10+ would be acceptable since it takes 10 ONLINE members to collect weekly support funds (not currently in game yet), and 1m - 5m daily guild pay.  

They said it before hand. I think around 1 or 2 weeks at least. If u don't read the patch notes it's not pearl abyss fault.

I would like free stuff in my guild of 1 person.

I have plus3 gather and working on my second fishing.

Doubtful any one will join my guild, so I guess I lose out.
