What can I get?
Create a Player Guide for ArcheAge and Get Rewarded!
And for a chance to win amazing rewards, now you can assist your fellow Chosen Ones by creating creative and helpful written or video player guides of ArcheAge! Help our future heroes navigate the wonders of Erenor.
Whether it's cool strats to clear some of your favorite instances faster or simple tips on increasing your gear score, everything counts to new adventurers in a world as complex as ArcheAge! If your creation is selected as one of the winners, it may be featured on our websites to help players get around effortlessly. And all thanks to you.
How do I participate?
It's easy, and the choice is yours! From an experienced How-To video or written guide on one of the many in-depth systems you feel isn't explained well in-game, or topics such as our world events like Crimson or Grimghast Rifts or maybe even all about Castles and Contribution! If you can write a guide about it, you can enter it! As long as it's about something in ArcheAge, you decide. And, flaunt your linguistic skills since your guide can be in English, German, or French.
Are you in need of some inspiration? You can browse some of our New Player Questions in our forums, on Reddit, or even our [URL]Game Guide to see the categories we cover!
All entries must be submitted to this forum thread during our entry period from January 14, 2021, to March 11, 2021. If it's going to be a long guide, feel free to link to your forum thread or video in our official thread! Sorry, written guides and videos created before this period will not be eligible for a prize. Now maybe a good time to revamp and get more in-depth on a guide you previously created! You can enter as many times as you want, but you will only receive one reward.
Yeah, helping is cool, but what are the rewards?
Helping out hundreds of fresh-faced heroes-to-be is rewarding itself, but don't worry, we have something to sweeten the deal. The more effort and complex the guide, the sweeter the reward.
The guide considered to be the most helpful (1st place) will receive an A-List Token, 30-Day Mirage Emberwild Charger, and a choice of either an Airseer, Firespeaker, or Mountcaller Storybook Pet!
The 2nd place and 3rd place rewards are an A-List Title Token and their choice of either an Airseer, Firespeaker, or Mountcaller Storybook Pet.
Fret not if you don't place as one of our grand winners because all entrants will receive an A-List Token to receive the A-List title for creating a guide in this event as long as it meets our eligibility requirements!
What are the Rules?
– All entries must be an accurate, in-depth, written, or video guide on a system within ArcheAge and/or ArcheAge: Unchained.
– Entries must be submitted via the Official Forums and should indicate the name and server of the character the entrant wishes to receive the reward on. The name and server will additionally appear on the guide on our official page unless requested otherwise. Entries received elsewhere will not be considered.
– Entries must be received between January 14, 2021, and no later than March 11, 2021, at 23:59 UTC.
– Guides and How-Tos made before the entry period are not available for entry. Sorry!
– Entrants can enter as many times as they want but will only receive at maximum of one reward.
– Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply (No Nudity, Racism, Offensive Imagery, etc.)
All good things don't last forever. While we heartily invite our community to create guides, this contest will end on March 11, 2021, at 23:59 UTC. Be sure to get your video or written guides in before it's too late!
