Guild Merits are a type of currency that a guild can earn and spend in combination with influence to purchase high-level guild upgrades and boons. The guild earns merits by completing any guild mission, except for Guild Bounty Training.

Acquisition[edit]

Guild merits are earned by successfully completing guild missions, with amount varying depending on mission type and tier. The maximum amount of merits that can be earned each week per type of mission is capped at the highest completed tier for that type of mission. For example, completing any combination of T2 and T1 bounties will earn a total of 20 merits from bounties for that week. The cap resets at Sunday 00:00 UTC, and guilds can earn up to 110 Guild Merits per week.

Usage[edit]

Guild merits can be spent in the guild panel in four categories: Architecture, The Art of War, Economy, and Politics. Your guild must have enough guild merits and influence to pay for an upgrade before it can be added to the queue; this amount is refunded if the queued upgrade is removed from the queue. Guild merits are not required for any guild upgrade at level 4 and below.

Architecture[edit]

Architectural upgrades requiring guild merits give access to temporary crafting stations, several banners, and the Guild Puzzle guild mission type.
