Search for beginner-friendly or casual guilds through community channels or in-game recruitment boards. When applying, introduce yourself and mention your experience level. Participate in guild chat, ask for advice, and join group events. Some beginners hesitate to join guilds, fearing they’re not skilled enough, but many guilds welcome and support newcomers. Being part of a guild accelerates your learning, provides regular feedback, and connects you with experienced players. You’ll know you’re progressing when you actively contribute to guild activities and start forming in-game friendships.
