This page is a work in progress.
The Archonate is an exclusive guild of dedicated and competitive players whose focus is on their core tenants - Industrialism, Mercantilism, and Militarism.
Key Features
- We are a highly supportive and committed group of experienced Survival, RPG, Shooter, and MMO veterans.
- We love PvP, PvE, Building, Crafting, Looting, and Economic focused gameplay.
- We plan to conduct extensive operations within the Deep Desert and control a comfortable portion of endgame resources in the interest of all our members.
- We have time proven internal systems which generously reward guild member’s contributions, and we believe strongly in a collectivist mindset where we all benefit from an economy of scale - earning more than we otherwise would as the sum of our individual parts.
- While we may not be the largest zerg on the server, we prioritize quality over quantity, and will find no trouble in achieving our goals.
Systems & Compensation
Guild Stockpile & Treasury
The Guild Stockpile is our material storage of all guild-owned goods and resources. These material reserves are used for guild base construction, Deep Desert Operations, and other guild functions. They may also be yet undistributed material spoils from guild operations - such as Spice or rare Schematics.
The Guild Treasury is our collective bank of currency for both guild functions and future distribution among members through weekly Share payouts.

The Binds of Steel (Code of Conduct)
The following is our code of conduct, which every member of the Archonate swears to uphold upon induction to the guild.
1: Be Respectful:
We foster a community built on kindness and mutual respect. Do not harass, troll, insult, or degrade people within or outside of the guild. Do not dox people or post pictures, videos, or jokes about death, explicitly sexual and/or violent or vulgar content. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, xenophobia, discrimination, prejudice, or hate speech of any kind. Prolonged toxicity or bullying is not allowed.
2: Further our Collective Good:
Commitment matters. When you join our guild, you become part of a dedicated and competitive team. We expect every member to be actively contributing towards our collective goals in whatever way they may be best suited to do so. Doing so allows us to achieve our goals more quickly, and allows us all to enjoy the greater fruits of our combined labor.
3: Be Loyal:
Membership is exclusive—being part of another major guild while staying in ours is not allowed. We value commitment and trust among our members. We encourage open communication and honesty among members. Speak up if you have concerns and share your thoughts freely. Trust is the backbone of our community.
4: No Cheating:
Fair play is the foundation of our guild. Cheating, using unsanctioned exploits, or engaging in any dishonest behavior ruins the experience for everyone. We expect all members to show integrity and uphold the spirit of fair competition.
Ideal Candidates for Recruitment
- We’re looking for dedicated PvPers and Economically minded players with intentions on wider Arrakan dominance.,
- We expect a high level of commitment from each of our members. Although we understand that real life comes first, and we are a group of adults with other responsibilities and interests, we expect that every member would place the success of the overall guild as their highest priority in-game - since that ultimately benefits them as well.,
- We’re looking for team-oriented players, willing to work in a squad and contribute towards a larger whole. Someone who shares our collectivist attitude and shares our view that our rising tide lifts all ships.
History & Founding - Guild Lore
In the decades preceding the War of Assassins, open war between the Great Houses of the Landsraad was the rare exception, rather than the rule. However, there was one Minor House of the Imperium whose militaristic ambition outpaced their sense of self-preservation. In the year 100XX, House NAME embarked on a
