Pick a race for the passive, then a guild for the rank bonuses. You can change the race later. You cannot casually leave the guild.
Creation
Five races are free: Human, Half-Ork, Elf, Dark Elf, and Dragon Blooded. Four cost a 50 Robux gamepass: Ork, High Elf, Arborian, and Kitsune. Bunikin is unlocked by an achievement or a quest, depending on which overview you read, and it is not a 50 Robux race. An older creation note listed an Incipere tester race and said the choice was permanent. Current race pages instead send you to the Shrine of Change at the Lost Shrine, and they list Bunikin rather than Incipere.
Guild join rules that change the plan
- One guild at a time. Leaving uses the Shrine of Regret.
- Rank 2 spends 10 SP on that guild's cantrip. Gladiator's example, HUNT, shows enemies through walls until you hit or get hit.
- Gladiator wants level 15, negative reputation, and stands in Caci Field.
- Draconic admits Dragon Blooded only. Join first, then change race if you want a different passive.
- Arborian cannot join Vampire directly. Join Vampire as another race, then change to Arborian.
- Cleric is the Overgrown Forest church (Topez). Knight is Talon on the Icy Plateau. Monk is Gong in the Vinelands. Thief is Robert at Kirbolg's Coin.
Positive guilds in the table are Cleric, Knight, and Monk. Negative guilds are Gladiator, Thief, and Vampire. Cursed, Draconic, and Scholar did not have a reputation cell filled in. Failing the Frontier Village InvestiGATOR quest is a -5 reputation result, so it matters before you walk up to a guildmaster.
Rank scaling, shown on Gladiator
| Rank | Speed | Physical defense | Heat resistance | Perk |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | +5% | +10% | +50% | Gladiatorial Rage +1 |
| 2 | +6.25% | +12.5% | +62.5% | Gladiatorial Rage +2 |
| 3 | +7.5% | +15% | +75% | Gladiatorial Rage +3 |
Other guilds list a rank-1 line only, and several of those lines are cut off. Use the guild page for the fragment that is actually written, and read the rest in the guild menu.
A practical first lock
If you are not buying a gamepass: Elf for runes, Half-Ork for armored bosses, or Dragon Blooded if you want Draconic and temperature resistance. Take Gladiator only after level 15 and only if you want the physical Rage rune. Take Cleric if you want Heal. Do not create as Arborian on day one if Vampire is the guild you want.
