    I’m keen on the guild idea, but haven’t played an mmo in like fifteen years. Would I be in over my head?

      Well, Path of Exile has a ton of content to it, but the game itself is fairly straightforward, and the biggest hurdle is really having people to explain things to you. The game has a lot of hidden stuff (for example, if you played D2 you may remember Horadric Cube recipes--well PoE has "vendor recipes" instead, where you sell certain items to a vendor and get something special back) but can be played successfully without knowing about much (or even any) of that.

      The most daunting part for new players is generally the massive passive-skill tree (before you click that link: yes, it's enormous, but you don't need to know it very well or even necessarily at all; most builds indicate where your passive points should be placed and usually even in what order, and once you start wanting to customize your builds you can just use the search function to find what you're looking for).

      Anyway you would certainly be welcome to join! My main character's name in-game is Aiolornis; feel free to message me!
