They'll go under enemy guilds - probably bolded or something

Really Alliances? Can I still take their stuff?

If they are official allies then we should refrain. We will likely be keeping allies very limited. Lots of others to steal from lol

Possible enemy guild = Bad Neighborhood Tonight they attacked Raymian with his pack and stole it. Raymian called for help and we came to his defense but Bad Neighborhood refused to give back the pack and would not re-enter a pvp area so we weren't able to get it back. We followed them around until they turned it in. So if you have a pack on or you're in a PVP area, avoid Bad Neighborhood, they are not friendly.

Also, I had a chat with someone from Ironfist today who told me that anyone seen in a pvp area or open sea is considered fair game to their guild so they will attack you or take your stuff. So avoid them as well.

Good Guilds I've come across other than RGL are Leviathan and Sons of Odin. They've been helpful a few times and could be good friendlies.

Leviathan has had a couple rude encounters with some of our members.

Well, this was inevitable. Some people just can't handle the awesome. *pulls out scalping knife* Time to get down to business.

Well, its nice to look at the ally sites and see that soul legion has us as allies. They also have a list of other guilds that they are allies with, might be good to look into allying with them...maybe...just a thought lol.

Lastly I would like to mention how awesome our runs with Aureus Knights have been, I would say we've turned in over 200 successful packs as a group! Great job and keep it up.

Ced and I are both registered and in regular contact. Probably better if we just funnel it through officers for maintaining proper diplomatic channels, etc

So I shouldn't be applying to multiple guilds' forums with different names to gather intel? I can remove those accounts...

Nah that's fine... I just don't want a mass of our members registering on other guilds forums.

Had a member of the "Mushroom Brotherhood" kill one of our guys while mining and said his guild doesn't care about factions, will kill everyone, swipe packs and they don't care who they piss off. I say we show them what that means.

Mushroom Brotherhood was assaulting me and a bunch of people yesterday while questing. Also late last night RGL asked for my help in Cinder because Mushroom Brotherhood had been killing some of their lower level members that were questing too.

A member had their ship harpooned today and their pack stolen by the guild "Shadow Dragons".

Me an Braik went on a fun run for his last trade quest. We got ganked by the guild called "Sea Ants".
I went back to confirm names with the dozens of blood stains and crossed referenced this guild over archeage forums.

So avoid these people, they farm packs at the end of the bay, right before getting to the ocean.

Sea Ants attacked Aine today and were trolling her boat using the harpoons and demanding gold from her. Later while Bowdre and I were fishing one of the guys who had attacked Aine showed up on Bowdre's boat to brag about it. He made it known that the Sea Ants are intending to become pirates. So avoid them like Myrvrad said.

RJO, can we get the list updated from the first thread on this post so people don't have to scroll pages to know who is friend or foe? Please and ty!

What 'Sea Ants' did to Aine, Praz, and me, was annoying as hell, but also very calculated. They got to us near pvp zone, but during peace time. They did everything they could to slow us down, so 11 min of peace could tick down allowing them to attack us and take Praz'es trade pack. Fortunately for us, it happened very close to the border with Two Crowns. So, The Ants finally left us because we kept moving toward Two Crowns and Aine expressly stated to them that we are not going to sail into the open sea. Trolling is a side activity, Ants are obviously after trade packs.

Traviss from Simplistic Conquest went out of his way this morning to help some of us try to retrieve a tradepack that was stolen by a red in Hellswamp. I extended the offer of an alliance and he said he would speak with his guild leader. Very nice guy and never once tried to steal the pack for himself (even though he was able to ninja it from the idiot red who tried to troll us by dropping it).

I've talked with Kronos from Simplistic Conquest who does their shout recruiting (I assume he's guild leader as well). He was a nice guy in all the interactions I've had with him. Haven't seen or heard anything negative about them.

The sea ants stole my pack as well some other packs in our trade run last night. They are definitely either a pirate guild or a guild that doesn't want to work with any other guilds.

I think even if there is not a 'kos' list, i think having a list of hostile guilds is helpful, just to know to avoid them or stay alert when they are around. Sea Ants would be on such a list.

Sea Ants and Laughing Coffin seem to both be pirate guilds, while they aren't KOS, they are not friendlies and if you feel like killing them no one minds at all.

Updated the initial post with a basic list. Make sure to keep reporting any positive or negative interactions with various guilds.

Guild named darkness (west guild) went purple and killed me in hasla. Dicks.

Since Laughing Coffin is officially Pirate/Red now, can we move them over to enemy or is it just understood that all pirates are KOS? :P

If they've gone official now and have turned red, you can have at them. Anyone that is red should pretty much always be considered an enemy.

For Enemy Guilds you may want to list: The Struggle on the west (they are an off branch of DVS Gaming which is an east guild). They are in TS with DVS and try to get on board ships from westerners, often with a false claim of trying to buy passage on your ship to go somewhere. But really in TS they're just telling DVS your location so DVS can roll in and steal your stuff and destroy your ships. This is factual intel so please be wary of The Struggle members. Even though they're greens they are not friendlies.

Also Notorious is an official pirate guild so watch out for them. As for Eastern guilds to watch out for other then DVS Gaming are Warrior Poets and Annihilation. Lastly, another green threat guild to be watchful of is Righteous Indignation. They are a merc guild and have been paid by another guild to gank us, grief us, steal from us and destroy our ships.

If it's red, it's dead.

Wise words in such a simple sentence.

I approve this message!

FYI from what I've heard Fairy Tale is working with DVS. I haven't noticed them doing anything specifically against us, but it is worth keeping an eye on.

Watch out for the ouroboros company they will attack if you have a trade pack

See, this is why I could never join a guild named after another fictional guild. They never live up to their namesake. Unless it's a guild dedicated to being dinks like Laughing Coughing or Grimoire Heart.

Fairy Tail stole one of our trade packs at Freedich this week as well.

Xena and Joxer from the NO RAGRETS griefed a trade run today. They blocked the marianople river with their cutter and told me they would be AFKing there all night unless I paid them to move. Luckily guildies were more than willing to help me. Donaga spawned his trade ship on the other side and many guildmates helped me move the trade packs from ship A to ship B. Unfortunately that didn't stop them and they began ramming his trade ship off course (towards neutral waters) on our way to Solzreed, and we were able to slow them by dropping their anchor until Donaga's ship got away to which apparently they killed 2-3 our members when we all crossed into neutral waters. The trade ship made it to Solzreed safely but they came right behind us and rammed the merchant ship into the dock, sinking it to the ocean floor making it harder to deliver packs.

This is entirely unprovoked and I am fairly certain they will do it again and again every chance they get, just because they can benefit from it and spite our guild.

Thankyou to everyone who helped, without you all my ship would have been stuck and packs would have been taken by them. I hope something is done to prevent this from happening again, and if it happens again I really hope something is done to discourage this behavior.

Sounds like some eastern drama over on the Naima forums:

http://forums.archeagegame.com/showt...-open-warfare!

I don't know if Shear is a land hacker or not, but I went to only my 4th demo last night in Halcyona and as soon as this person showed up folks were saying they were a known land hacker. Sure enough, Shear did win the plot with around 10 or so other people there. Regardless, infighting among eastern guilds can only be a good thing :)

In a more positive note, Conflict and someone else from Void helped me out last night. Had a dc on a trade run going through Dewstone and they babysat my wagon until I could get back, then helped me hop a cart blockade of Mari after. Mentioned being Tokin's neighbors.
