Greetings Everyone,
I know many people have wanted to level up scribing. This is not a personal profession. It does not help you in any way later on aside from the tomes that are like group utility buffs. Everything you create requires 4-24 hours in the Resonator to create. We only have 1 slot for PvE and 1 Slot for WvW. Right now we are focusing our PvE line Entirely on building World Boss Spawn events. For the next 89 days that's what we will be producing on the PvE Side.
Scribing in it's current state is highly expensive and the more people that do it in a guild the harder it is to level. For right now I'd like to ask that we all just pool our resources and get 1 level 400 scribe in the family. Once that happens we can start spreading the love to a few more and then a few more. I know it's an exciting profession however realize this is by far the most costly profession and for the same price as getting to 400 scribing you could buy Eternity outright. This journey is close to a 2,500 gold journey. It is not cheap and it gets even more difficult when more than 1 person is doing it at a time.
For right now I am working on getting myself to 400 and will be placing donatable goods up on the marketplace quite often so that I can produce the things for the guild upgrades. Once I get to 400 I want to drive lakshmi up the rest of the way and then we can open it up to the rest if you like. But realize the "I want to help make decorations for the family" thought process is great. However each decoration we need to run through the Resonator so instead of doing a World Boss spawn keeping Soren running Teq runs we'll have to build a chair, which will upgrade to another chair, which will be combined with 5 chairs to make another chair. The time we spend on that 1 chair could have spawned Tequatl 6 times over. We can't tie up our resonator building chairs and planters right now. Once we get to max level then we can worry about decorations. Right now we need Paper, Sandpaper, and WvW Schematics. These I can produce with supplies.
Things we will always need:
- Piles of Coarse Sand
- Piles of Flax Seed
- Flax
- Vial of Linseed Oil
- Quartz
- Ley-Line Infused Tools
- Potatos
Those materials are used as base components and are used in every step of the guild upgrading process. They will be on the Donation list long term for the foreseeable future.

If you would like to become one of the families scribes please post your ArenaNet.ID and your current scribing level. Once I hit max level and can scribe the necessary parts for upgrades and map out the easiest way to get to max level I will be picking a couple more people to come up the family scribing ranks to work our way to getting everyone who wants it their scribe leveled up. Before that however we need to make sure we have the supplies necessary to keep the family upgrading at the fastest rate possible. Plus it will help to have all the Schematics unlocked for your journey. Things like World Events can level you entirely from 125 to almost 200 if your willing to spend the gold to get the Icy Runestones.
