Welcome to the home of Rubiconics [RUBI], a player-made guild in Guild Wars 2!
Our plan is to use this website as a gathering place for our community and to provide resources and links that will benefit both our guildmates and the greater GW2 community, at large. Please feel free to reach out to us in game to join our guild or even just have questions or need help with something in-game.
In Childhood, my nickname was Erkki which is Finnish name. I do, in fact, have a Norn Untamed named as such, however, people seem to gravitate towards calling me "Merlund", which is the name of my Reaper. I will quickly acknowledge and respond to either name, if called upon in game.
My reasons and goal for creating the guild Rubiconics are manifold, but they can be summarized as this: I got to end-end game and realized there is little for me, personally, left to do. So in the spirit of a sandbox game (I have come to believe GW2 is the most elaborate sandbox video game ever), I am making my own fun by switching my focus to helping others to experience the joy of playing GW2 to the fullest. I am not perfect, and I would not describe myself as a born leader, but I am muddling through, making an honest effort and trying to grow the collective enthusiasm and fun of our guild.
I live stream often, and you can find me at Twitch.tv/Rubiconics.
I hope this find you well, that you enjoying are playing GW2 and are living a healthy and happy life. Please feel free to join Rubiconics [RUBI] in our little adventures and get the most out of your GW2 experience!

Yes, we have a Discord Server! If you ever forgot how to find the link here, it is also pinned in the main menu, with a link directly to Discord.
Having said that, I would express that--having set up the Discord server myself--I am quite certain it is missing many features and categories people would prefer to have. This is largely due to the fact that I am very old-school and not a huge fan of Discord, personally. This is mainly due to lack of reliable search features, imho.
However, I 100% acknowledge that most players do not at all find this problematic, and that having Discord is a vital component, tool and resource for any guild or co-operative gameplay. The voice channel features, which are amazing, make it thus on their own merit. We have many voice channels in our Discord and all are operational. Please feel free to use them to augment the quality of life of your gameplay.
Lastly, if anyone(s) would like to offer to be "in charge" or at least a moderator(s) of Discord, that would be greatly appreciated. Discord will need a lot of work and updating, and unfortunately, one person can only do so much. My energies will largely be spent elsewhere. Please email me in game, if you would like to help. Thanks!

Please make sure to Follow us on Twitch!
As you probably already know, Twitch is a major element of our general recruiting strategy for our guild, Rubiconics [RUBI]. Increased followers, activity and views only grows our community and powah! (+9000)
This is not to imply that bigger is always better regarding the size of a guild, but we do need to maintain a certain number of players to do larger events, for example, and to grow our guild hall, which is exorbitantly expensive at higher tiers.
Lastly, Twitch can just be fun, a way to augment our shared experiences and to also watch your GM do fails and dirtnaps!
