Within the guild there are many different systems which are set by the mods in order to increase the productivity in the game as well as ensure that the members will have a good time while here. The guild systems are very important and are not to be taken lightly; all guild members and mods will follow the guild system there are no exceptions for anyone.
● Ranking System: We have recently decided upon using a new ranking system, unlike before when the homunculus and alchemist were ranked differently. We are now using a universal ranking system which will allow you to compare ranks with members of the opposite fractions. The list chain will be shown below with the description of the rank:
○ S-Ranked: S Ranked are highly trained soldiers, known as legends to those who fight below them. They are powerful in all aspects of the word and are veterans of the battle field, matched only by someone of there rank.
○ A-Ranked: A Ranked are well trained soldiers, although they are not revered as legends like the S Ranked, A Ranks are fully capable at handling themselves on the battle field. A ranks are most usually set as captains for beginner squadrons, they are usually tasked with training there squadrons and keeping them away from danger. It is also the A Ranks duty to assign there team missions, but it is up to the A rank to decided the difficulty of that mission and no one else.
○ B-Ranked: B Rank are soldier who are on there way to become squadron leaders. Members of this rank can usually decided whether or not they want to be placed on or team or not, but regardless of whether they are on a team or not they will still given missions by a rank A warrior or higher. Although they are not A ranks yet they tend to have a little bit more pull then others within a team and are more often picked as second in command within there own squadron.
○ C-Ranked: C Ranks are viewed as an average warrior, they don't have much pull when it comes to ranks below them, but most of them have seen battle and knows what it takes to say a live. At this you are required to be a part of a squadron unless given permission from an higher ranking warrior.
○ D-Ranked: D Ranked warriors are just a little below average. There skills are lower then there higher ranking counter parts, but they often make up for it with there recklessness. D ranks are required to work with teams and cannot be separated from the team under any circumstances.
○ E-Ranked: R Ranked warriors are not well trained; low in skill and high in ignorance they are only one rank above a recruit. At this rank, most warriors seemed to be head strong and often get themselves into a lot of trouble. At this rank team assignments are important and teams often begin to bond closer at this rank, learning to use each others battle styles and tactics to there advantage.
○ F-Ranked: F Ranks; the lowest possible rank in and faction. Given many names they are brand new recruits. These recruits tend to have to potential to be great, but lack the proper training and focus to reach. This rank is also when you are assigned a team.
○ Civilian: Civilians are looked open as free agents. Civies as they are called by warriors are usually not armed with a kakugane unless given so under a special circumstance. With very low skills an a small knowledge if any about alchemy or homunculus they are completely unaware of the true world that hides within the shadows.
● Leveling System: All warriors will gain levels by the total amount of words they have posted. For all those who were here before the guild this is a major improvement on our previous clunky and sometimes unreliable leveling system.
Stat Caps
○ Civilian: 0 - 19
○ F-Rank: 20 - 39
○ E-Rank: 40 - 59
○ D-Rank: 60 - 89
○ C-Rank: 90 - 129
○ B-Rank: 130 - 149
○ A-Rank: 150 - 199
○ S-Rank: 200 - Up
Skill Development
From Civilian to F rank for ever 100 words that you post you will earn one stat point which can be used to increase either speed, strength, endurance or intelligence, the choice is completely up to you. As you rank up it will become more difficult to to gain a skill point; when you reach E rank 1 stat point will be worth 200 words, D Rank will be 250, C Rank will be 400, B Rank will be 500 and A Rank will be 1000 words per and finally S Rank which a point will then cost 1200 words.
● Beginning System: All beginners will now start with there factions undecided and will not be able to decide the faction until they have posted at least a thousand words of RP. The beginners will also not be given a Kakugane until they have joined a fraction unless told differently.
● Profile System: All profiles will kept by rank. So S rank will be in a forum for one S rank profile. Also the profile will be locked so that any information cannot be tampered with after being submitted.
● Detection System: The detection system is basically exactly what it sounds like. Many of times there have been incidents when roll playing that people post as if they already know that you are a member of the opposite faction; the detection system will stop that so they won't automatically know you are an enemy. This will work both ways so that the identities of the faction member can be concealed for a matter of time or kept secret for as long as possible; which can be done by utilizing a disguise or mask.
● Warrior Types System: Warrior types will allow you to further develop your RPC by have them more stand out in certain aspects; from defensive skills, to offensive as well too stealth like maneuvers. All warrior types will also give an increase to stats as well as a decrease to certain stats so picking a warrior type that will be affective for your type of RP will be extremely important.
● Stat System: In order for the Warrior Type system to work correctly it will have to be paired with a stat system. The stats system will work as a way to set a limit for an alchemist power, defensive capabilities, speed and stamina; this will also combat a little more fun as well as increase the chances of your RPC finding a rival.
● Weather System: The weather system helps give more of a realistic feel to Ginsei City. It also solves the problem of having a hurricane in one forum and sunny skies in another, because the weather effects all forums. The weather system will be found in the main forum of the guild and current weather will displayed in the title as well as in a post within the forum, which will be time coded.
● Kakugane Registration System: This system my be over looked by it is an important system that not only allows us to track the abilities and owner of Kakugane, but it also allows us to keep track of numbers so that we won't have a problem with a repeated serial number for a kakugane.
● Guild Update System: The Guild update system allows the guild members to see what the guild admins have be doing in order to enhance the guild members experience such as sub forum additions and rule changes; as well as find out about forum scheduled lock downs for any reason.
