So you want to be a Guild Master... eh?

 

Without any buffs and making EVERY guild item every day it takes 23 days to complete.

                                                                                     GUILD ACCESS:

   For VIP accounts  all of the guild tiers are open.

   For PREMIUM accounts access is maintained at what ever lvl you are at when VIP runs out or when you purchased something.Advancement is with TP.

   For F2P accounts you must use TP for every tier, BUT there is a strategy for doing so.

  1st you must have every tier of your guild craft open. At the very minimum the profiency

half of every tier. That way you can buy all 19 of the item recipes. It is regulated by crafting tier, not character level.

  Then you need storage space..a LOT of it.For bags you need about 24 open spaces just for the guild materials, then at least 19 open spaces once a week. This is where your alt accounts come in. You really do need a second account/ house/chest.You go there, unload your bags, pick up your guild items for that day and make them. Go back and swap out your stuff. Then continue playing. Guild items stack to 100.

    If you have multiple toons and need to guild them all out....more storage.

                                                                          This is the bad part

    Once you have tons of guild items stored you either grind away for TP/guild access  or you go VIP. I never advocate a player spending real money on a game. BUT... that 1 month of VIP gives you access to a lot of good things (5 bags also), and you keep some on downgrade to a premium acct.LOTRO/WIKI/VIP. You use your guild access to advance your toon/s to guild master.

   Be aware, this grind takes time...a LOT of it. I did an experiment with Tagruil. I went from lvl 6 to lvl 22 and Guild Master Woodworker in 7.5 hours. That included Master 9th tier Forester also. It took about 3 weeks to gather all thelogs,with lvl 60 Thorsuil, and I bought some also. So think about it: If you gather/adv craft/make guild items every day  that is about 1 hour minimum with travel time.

   You also need to keep making guild items for stock  so you can use your new guild crafting abilities.

                                                                                                   GOOD LUCK,Turduil
