Our guild unlocked buffs by reaching level 5!!! Now to decide on a tax rate%

As you know, our guild has reached level 5 and we have entered into a contract with Ronto the sprite king. This now allows us to purchase buffs for the guild.

Each of the following buffs cost 100g (besides the experience boost) and lasts for 1 hour:
Party Barrier: max hp +10% expert players max sp+10%
Howl of the World: 6% chance skills and reg. attacks will cause stasis in enemies for 2 secs
Wrathful Blessing: Chance of critical hit rate +5%
Trial of the Sprite King: Experience +5% (costs 150g)


With that in mind, please decide what you think an appropriate tax rate would be. Keep in mind, the tax rate only deducts from the money you make on the quests you complete.

Im thinking of a somewhat higher rate, but still have to be not that much. If we want buffs, we need to pay for it. I think the experiance buff is a good one.

Remember: Guild reps can be completed with groups (hopefully guildies) to increase our guild xp bar. Let's max it out to be the first to hit level 6

Also, do quests and kill uniques to fill our honor bar so we can take advantage of the sweet guild buffs we have available

1.keep in mind that tax rate is good and all but if you do not put requirements in such as min invite to guild lvl 30 all the tax rate is going to do is hurt your current high lvl players since the stuff they buy and sell is far greater in price than most of the lower level stuff...so a high tax rate will eventually alienate your higher lvl members who are actually working hard to help out...
2.make it a requirement that each person chooses a main character and they stick with that main at least until they are level 50 because at this rate if each person in the guild has 2-3 characters and are constantly jumping between them all not going to get very far.
3.As for the buffs yes i agree that they are nice to have but you also have to remember that the gold being used atm for the buffs are mainly from donations and forbid me to say this but this is still open beta there is still alot more content to be added in the future and if and when that content is added and we do not have the correct amount of gold to acquire these new things again not going to go very far..
4.There should be a min requirement that the gold in the guild bank should never fall below that amount no matter what

Fine thought indeed problem is too many alts not enough higher lvl members Syndicate already has at least 12 level 60's in their guild which makes it very hard to compete with what we have in order to be the first to reach guild level 6... but it is still good to have a set goal for the entire guild..
