Can I change to a different guild for earning GP....

Coffeeandapples · 05-20-2006, 06:57 PM

..without losing the 31+ levels that I have on Woodworking past 60? I'm not sure if this relates to master points or not.. The reason I ask is because I read a topic about someone accidentally reverting their lv69 craft to lv60. I read it a long time ago on Allakhazam, so I don't remember all of the details..

I will want to get some other guild GP items after I get my Drawing Desk and the two lumber ensorcelments in woodworking. Maybe I jumped into woodworking 60+ too fast..

you can. Guild contracts don't affect your skill.

Just don't lvl any other crafts past 60. The skill level below craftsman is the highest you want to go. (I think if you take the test offered at that point, you could risk leveling the craft as a subcraft and lose a skillpoint on your main craft, or something like that.) You can switch which guild your are earning GP for, but you will lose any GP's you currently have with the ww guild.

Okay. Good to know, I've been thinking about it for a while, and couldn't find a answer in any guide. Thanks for the fast responses

on a similar note...

(and i'm sure this is a simpler question) i'm signed up at cookery guild and woking ion earing some guild points. If i was to sign up at clothcraft in order to get imagery, and do guild rank tests, would i loose my points, and the ability to trade in for points at cooking guild?

Could you technically lv up bonecraft to 100, HQ a few signed SH+1 then skill up clothcraft to 100 to HQ Vermys etc? Would bonecraft lv down to 60 or you just cant do this?

Joining a guild and having a guild-point contract with them are not the same. You can join every guild in the game (to get get image support and take tests) with no penalty. You can only have one active guild-point contract at a time. I believe you do lose your guild points if you switch contracts, but I've never done it so I can't say for sure.

You can level other tradeskills and take rank tests without affecting your guild points. So, yes, you can level your Clothcraft without affecting your Cooking GP.

Bonecraft would level down as you took Clothcraft past 60. You would have Cloth 61 and Bone 99, then Cloth 62/Bone 98, etc. until they'd reversed.

Yes, you will lose your GP's if you change which guild you're accruing GP's for. I haven't done it, but I recall the NPC telling me that when I signed up for the WW guild.
