Guild advancement Guild Advancement was a feature which allows guild s to level in a way similar to characters . There were 25 levels for a guild to progress through . Experience towards level progression was gained through guild member participation in raid boss kills , Rated battlegrounds victories , Arena victories , and completing quests / daily quests . To qualify for guild XP , a raid or PvP group must have been composed of at least 75 % guild members . Participating in these also granted players reputation with the guild , which allows them to buy guild - bound items like heirlooms and raid materials with gold . Originally there was also going to be a guild currency and a guild talent tree system , but those were scrapped . As of Patch 6 . 0 . 2 , guilds no longer have levels . Each guild now has an identical list of member perks . Guild experience and leveling . A guild is able to level up to level 25 . Advancement in levels is done in a manner similar to player characters : a variety of tasks lead to earning XP which counts toward advancing to the next level . Activities which earn guild XP include : Any experience a guild member earns from a quest completion contributes to the overall guild experience . The experience gained will be according to the formula : Guild exp = Quest exp / 4 . Prior to Warlords of Draenor ( Patch 6 . 0 . 2 ) , for each level , the guild was awarded a special perk . These perks add convenience to guild - members ' playing experience ( such as Mass Resurrection ) . Since Patch 4 . 2 became live on June 28 2011 , the guild experience cap on a daily basis had been raised by 25 % overall , which made this a daily experience cap of 7 , 807k . Previously , when a guild reached level 23 the daily experience cap was removed - this was reduced to level 20 . Before Patch 4 . 2 , each guild had a daily experience cap of 6 , 246k , and level 25 requires 845 , 670k . Therefore , the total number of days to get to level 25 is : 845 , 670 , 000 / 6 , 246 , 000 = ~ 135 days . Given that Cataclysm came out on 12 / 7 / 2010 , the earliest any guild could progress to level 25 was 4 / 21 / 2011 . The daily guild cap resets 03 : 00 CET time same time as quests reset .
