Welcome Holotable Players!

Hi everyone!

Call me Mofkren. Or call me Mr. Safety, because that’s what people call me in real life. I started Guild 1408 as a solo guild because I didn’t like the intensity of many mainstream guilds. I wanted a place where I could run events but not feel pressured to log in every day to avoid being booted.

Somehow, I ended up with a great group of officers, including Q17, who runs this site. The guild was developing, events were happening, and new players were growing. Guild 1408 had become exactly what I wanted it to be. Then I promoted SkulMasa.

Sorry about that. 

Skul was really enthusiastic, and a great event strategist, but he was a little intense. He wanted 1408 to become a power guild. Now that he has left, I want us to get back to our roots. This guild exists so new players can advance in a low-stress atmosphere. Contribute what you can. Advanced players are expected to help new players with gear donations and sensible raid participation. 

My best advice for newbies: Get a seven-star toon as soon as you can. That will let you participate in certain events. Even if you walk out in front of Darth Clownface and instantly get vaporized, you’ll get rewards. When you get your first 50k squad, you’ll start doing damage. With a 70k squad, you’ll make a dent in the raid. Before you know it, you’ll have several seventies and a 90k, and you’ll be placing in the top ten.

If you become a power player, and decide that Guild 1408 isn’t challenging enough, I don’t mind if you leave. Think of 1408 as a training center–not an evil hotel room where you’re trapped forever. But if you want to stick around and help the noobs, I really appreciate that. 

Play on, and may the Force be with you!

Guild Rules

Guild 1408 is a very laid back guild and we absolutely love to help new players grow into strong players that will hopefully stick around with us… but we do have a few rules we ask everyone to follow:

  1. Always review messages and recent chats for any new information we try to send to you
  2. We’re a laid-back guild, but we do expect participation. Do your best to log in at least several times a week. If you’re going to be absent for more than a week, let us know. We may remove players who do not participate regularly
  3. Every member should both request, and give gear donations at least once per week. It helps everyone. Currently we are not removing for failure to do so, however, that time is coming soon… warning first, then removal… so better to get into the habit of donating and asking
  4. Ask Questions! If you don’t understand something, or would just like advice on strategy, just ask. There are some very seasoned players in this guild who are happy to help.
  5. Participate in events, Territory Wars and Territory Battles that you are able to. We understand there are events that you may not qualify for…at least for now… however, you should participate.
    • Even if you can’t do much damage, everyone in the guild gets rewards for the progress we make as a WHOLE guild, and everyone gets the same loot…it doesn’t matter if you’re 3 Million GP or 300k GP… the loot is the same.
  6. Don’t Ignore Direct Messages from the Leader or Officers.
    • Can’t EMPHASIZE this enough. We’re a team, and the leaders want to HELP YOU get stronger
    • If you are struggling with the game or confused by it in any way… reach out in private message.
  7. Pay attention to RAID RULES. They can change from time to time as we figure out the best strategy for maximizing Raid tickets. Currently, Raid rules are as follows:
    1. Rancor Pit Raid
      1. Open to ALL Players with at least one 7* toon
      2. There are a few players who can solo this easily, so we will run HEROIC rancor until EVERYONE has a 7* Han Solo.
      3. All you need is a 7* toon to enter. There is a 24 hour join period and we run them every 4 days or so. Once you have joined, you will AUTOMATICALLY get Han Solo shards…even if you don’t attack.
    2. SITH Raids
      1. Sith Raids are open Players under 1 Million GP (Galactic Power) for the first 48 hours. You can find your GP by opening your characters page and looking at the top right of that screen.
      2. Sith Raids are currently running at tier 3 so all you need to qualify is a 48 toon.
      3. AFTER 48 hours, if the raid is not complete, players over 1 Million GP will be permitted to attack as well. This will ensure we are launching a new Sith Raid every few days or so, which will increase EVERYBODY’s Loot frequency.
      4. The following players should show EXTEME restraint in Sith Raids, as the idea is to help out the less powerful players become more powerful. This list will be updated as players grow in strength
        • Mofkren, Benkha, BeastVibe, SCP (Supreme Chancellor Parsley), Q17.
    1. Tank Raids
      1. Same as Rancor Raids…
      2. Open to ALL Players with at least one 7* toon
      3. There are a few players who can solo this easily, so we will run HEROIC Tank until EVERYONE has a 7* General Kenobi.
      4. All you need is a 7* toon to enter. There is a 24 hour join period and we run them every 4 days or so. Once you have joined, you will AUTOMATICALLY get General Kenobi shards…even if you don’t attack.

Good things to know

There are a few things to know that may help you in your journey. For example… did you know that if you make a mistake during a raid, and would like to undo it you can? YES… just close the game before the raid round ends, and it is as if you have never even played that round. Your score is the same as when you started, and you have the same number of tries left… as if you have never even made the attempt in the first place.
