Guild coalitions are a secondary guild that functions just like a regular guild.

Joining a coalition guild is just like joining any other guild. A guild coalition is a personal choice which you decide per character. 

Your character will remain in your current guild, and you will also be able to join another guild with that same character.

Guild coalitions are limited to one per character just like guilds, and you may be in a one guild and one coalition at the same time.

What you get with Guild Coalitions:

  • Normal guild command structure with access rights and permissions.
    • You can toggle the Coalitions UI window with /togglecoalition
    • You can change your active guild or coalition with /set_active_guild "Guild or Coalition Name"
      • Progress for Guild achievements and similar systems is only applied to your active guild or coalition.
    • Most /guild <command> actions are available for coalitions with /coalition <command> 
  • Access to a guild coalition hall which contains all the same possible amenities as a guild hall.
  • Chat channels and who commands recognizing coalitions like current guild chat.
  • Mail allowing you to send messages to coalition/coalition officers, like current guild mail.
  • Guild coalition banks, like current guild banks, with access rights defined by the same means.
  • Limited to 1 coalition per character.

With the introduction of guild coalitions a new concept of an active guild has been introduced.

This selection can be done from the Character -> Options -> Guild menu, from the guild or guild coalition UI as well as by the /set_active_guild "Guild or Coalition Name" command.

This choice cannot be made in zone instances other than houses and you must not be in combat.

You active guild selection determines a few things:

  • The guild tag is displayed above your character.
  • The guild you will be gaining guild status for.
  • The guild for which your will be providing medal progress.
  • The guild that gets checked when purchasing guild halls.

While you must purchase the guild coalition hall with the coalition active, you may enter your guild or coalition hall from the housing UI regardless of your active guild selection.
