THE LEGIONBOARD FIELD GUIDE
How to find the right AION 2 guild
Compare the people, schedule and expectations behind a recruitment post. A useful legion match starts with when you can play and what you want to do together.
Global community recruitment. Listings are self-reported and reviewed for content quality. The comparison process, questions and application below are editorial tools for players.
Guild, legion and the community you are joining
Players often use guild and legion when looking for an AION 2 community. LegionBoard uses both search terms to help people discover the same kind of recruiting group. A public profile here is a community’s introduction; joining the website or submitting an application does not automatically add your character to an in-game legion.
Begin by deciding what you want from a group. A few regular teammates, a busy social channel and a progression roster are different experiences. Player discussions show requests for smaller communities and regional schedules as well as frustration with recruitment feeds. Use those as questions to ask, rather than assuming the largest group is the best fit.

Use the filters in a practical order
Start with the constraints that can prevent you from playing together, then narrow by preferences. Region, faction and server context should be discussed before a trial run. Region labels in this directory describe a community’s recruitment area; they are not an official, complete list of game servers or proof of cross-server compatibility.
Choose language and playstyle next. Search by the role you can offer if the results are still broad. A Tank recruitment tag is an invitation to discuss that responsibility, not proof that every applicant with a particular class will be accepted. Review the full profile, including its last update, before sending the same message to several organizers.
- Select your region and faction, then confirm the listed server with the organizer.
- Choose a language you can use for both everyday discussion and encounter instructions.
- Match PvE, PvP, Casual, Hardcore or Mixed to the activities and pace you actually enjoy.
- Compare prime time in the listed timezone against your available days and hours.
- Read recruitment status, requested roles and the description before applying.
Check the schedule with a date, not just an offset
A guild can be in your region and still play while you are at work. Ask for its normal event days, assembly time, actual start time and expected finish. A prime-time range such as 19:00–23:00 says when people may be around; it does not tell you whether a specific raid begins at 19:00 or 22:00.
Use the guild’s named timezone and convert a real future event date in the event calendar tool. London and New York do not change clocks on the same dates, so a familiar time difference may move during part of the year. Be explicit about whether your commitment follows your own local clock or the organizer’s local clock.
If you play from Oceania or another timezone outside the group’s main region, ask about actual attendance in your window. A regional label cannot guarantee late-night activity, acceptable latency or a dedicated local server. Two overlapping evenings you can attend reliably are more useful than a broad promise that somebody is always online.
Compare expectations before comparing size
Treat casual and hardcore as conversation starters. One organizer may use casual to mean optional attendance; another may mean relaxed conversation during a fixed progression schedule. Ask for concrete examples of a normal week. Likewise, a recruitment status of Recruiting does not guarantee a place in the next organized group.
A short comparison table helps you make a decision without inventing a score for each guild. Record what the organizer actually says, leave unknowns blank and follow up on the few things that matter most to you. If the answers change, update your notes before committing to a regular slot.
| Factor | Ask the organizer | A useful answer includes |
|---|---|---|
| Schedule | Which events could I attend this week? | Days, timezone, start and finish |
| Learning | Are first-time players welcome in this run? | Explanation and preparation expectations |
| Attendance | What happens when real life interrupts? | Notice period and substitute process |
| Communication | Is voice required to speak, listen, or neither? | An accessible method you can use |
| Roster | Is this a community place or a regular group slot? | Clear expectations about selection |
| Culture | How do you handle mistakes and disagreements? | A specific process and contact person |
Write an application that is easy to answer
A useful application tells the organizer who you are, when you can attend and what kind of session you want. Use your character name and current class, then declare the role you can provide now. If you are still learning or changing your setup, say so. Clear limits help the organizer offer an appropriate place.
On a real recruiting profile, sign in to LegionBoard and submit the application form. Managers review applications in their dashboard. An application is a request for discussion, not an automatic acceptance or an in-game invitation. Do not include your game password, payment details or private recovery information in the message.
Use a trial session to confirm the fit
Before a trial, confirm its objective and duration. Prepare whatever the organizer has actually requested, arrive at the agreed check-in time and tell them if you are delayed. During the session, notice whether instructions are understandable, whether questions are welcome and whether the group’s pace matches the description you applied to.
Afterward, ask one concrete follow-up: which future sessions could you reasonably join? A friendly evening does not automatically establish a permanent roster place. If the fit is poor, leave politely and explain the mismatch in practical terms, such as schedule or pace. You do not need to invent a judgment about the whole community.
If the directory has few matches, relax one preference at a time rather than changing every filter. Try Mixed instead of a narrow playstyle, search another language you speak or ask about a compatible schedule. Fictional examples are available to demonstrate the interface, but they are clearly labeled and do not accept real applications.
What reviewed listings do and do not establish
Directory review checks content quality. It does not independently verify in-game ownership, roster activity, clear history or future promises. Names, schedules and recruitment needs come from the community submitting the profile. Look for a recent update and ask the organizer to confirm important details before treating them as current.
If you spot an inaccurate or misleading listing, use the contact and report form with its URL and a factual description. Guild leaders can help by closing recruitment when places are unavailable and updating changed hours. A smaller directory of accurate, useful profiles serves players better than stale listings that imply opportunities no longer exist.
Common questions
How do I find an English-speaking AION 2 guild?+
Filter by English, then compare region, faction, server and event hours. Ask whether encounter instructions and everyday chat are in English; a language tag alone does not explain how the group communicates.
Can I find a guild for Oceanic playing hours?+
Search the available region and timezone fields, then ask organizers about specific events during your local evenings. The directory does not guarantee an Oceanic server or active members in every timezone.
Does applying here join the in-game legion?+
No. Your message goes to the guild’s LegionBoard application queue. The organizer must discuss acceptance and any in-game invitation separately.
Why are there no matching guilds?+
The directory contains only public, approved profiles. Try fewer filters or check back later. Private profiles and fictional examples are not real recruiting results.
Can a guild list itself for free?+
Yes. An owner can create a basic profile, choose public visibility and submit it for review. Keep its schedule, description and requested roles accurate while recruitment is open.
