[[Social organizations]] are ways for players to interact with the world around them in a different manner. Social organizations function a little bit like factions. They are about creating micro communities within the game.<ref name="livestream-17-May-2017-7:27">[https://youtu.be/_fPIP8uu6Pc?t=7m27s Livestream, 17 May 2017 (7:27).]</ref>
[[Guilds]] in [[Ashes of Creation]] are still [[Pre-alpha|pre-alpha]] design that will need testing and feedback from the community.
== Types ==
== Guild membership ==
A character may only be a member of a single [[Guilds|guild]].<ref name="membership">[https://youtu.be/eCvcB4S-tZM?t=2820 Podcast interview, 5 May 2017 (47:20).]</ref>
* [[Thieve's guild]]
* [[Alts]] on the same [[Account]] can join different guilds.
** Intrigue, espionage and intelligence gathering is a legitimate aspect of the game.
* [[Trader's company]]
== Joining ==
== Guild progression ==
[[Guilds]] can focus on niche progression or opt to grow in size.<ref name="livestream-5-May-2017-23:26">[https://youtu.be/3UIqmWTGZ2k?t=1406 Livestream, 5 May 2017 (23:26).]</ref>
* Social organizations are system generated. They are not owned by players.<ref name="livestream-17-May-2017-11:27">[https://youtu.be/_fPIP8uu6Pc?t=11m27s Livestream, 17 May 2017 (11:27).]</ref>
* Membership slots can be traded off for [[#Guild sizes|advantages]].
* [[#Guild alliances|Guild alliances]] may be a key part in creating a larger “guild”.

== Leaving ==
== Guild size ==
There are mechanics that are geared towards larger and smaller guilds.<ref name="livestream-5-May-2017-23:26"/>
* Larger guilds can siege [[Guild fortresses|fortresses]].
** Larger guilds won’t have access to power boosting guild ability slots.
* Small groups can do some things better than larger groups.
** Sieges will have things that smaller groups have an advantage in.
== Guild alliances ==
== Progression ==
* Due to the lack of fast-travel, guilds will need have to plan to have people in the right place at the right time. Alliances with other guilds will help enable that.<ref name="livestream-5-May-2017-23:26"/>
* There may be a mechanic that allows alliances to war against each other.<ref name="alliances">[[File:guild wars alliances.png|350px]]</ref>
* There are hierarchical paths pertaining to specific questlines for the organization's thematic.
== Guild wars ==
<blockquote>For example, a [[Thieve's guild]] may have objectives and quests toward securing a particular item to level up within the organization.</blockquote>
{{Guild wars|1====}}
== Zergs ==
[[wiktionary:zerg|Zergs]] are empowered by fast-travel. Meaningful travel times will prevent zerg play for being so much of an influence.<ref name="livestream-5-May-2017-23:26"/>
