Guardians of Sunfist

The Guardians of Sunfist was the newest society brought to Elanthia in response to the Grimswarm invaders. Their main headquarters was located in Zul Logoth where everyone joining was required to be inducted. However, one could also get invited to join by a recruiter or the Superintendent of any of the outposts. According to GS4-COASE, outposts were located at:

• Wehnimer's Landing - (Lower Dragonsclaw)
• Icemule Trace - (due south from outside the East Gate)
• Solhaven - (the Outlands)
• River's Rest - (Grassland Path)
• Ta'Illistim - (Sylvarraend, Foehn Var)
• Ta'Vaalor - (Fearling Pass)
• Teras Isle - (Basalt Flats)

The Landing's outpost can be found via the following directions: From outside the west gate: go north, west, southwest, southwest, south, west, west, up, southwest, northwest, go trail, up, search, go cleft, up, go bridge, west, go building, southwest.

Further information regarding the Guardians will be explored upon further player experience.

Joining the Guardians of Sunfist

After being invited to join the Guardians of Sunfist by an NPC recruiter, the player must travel to Zul Logoth and visit the Grandmaster. After a brief history, the player will be asked to recite an oath to "oppose the Grimswarm and their allies at every opportunity."

The headquarters can be found in Zul Logoth via the following directions: From outside the Bank of Zul Logoth: southeast, southeast, east, south, south, east, northeast, northeast, northeast, northwest, go arch, north, northwest, west, northeast, north, go portcullis. Once inside, to find the Grandmaster, take the western side of the loop to the third door.

Gaining Ranks and Obtaining Sigils

Advancement in ranks, when earned, may be obtained at any outpost. Once you have earned promotion, visit the local Superintendent.

Earning ranks is done by acquiring a sufficient number of "recognition points". Your current number of recognition points, as well as the number required to gain the next rank, can be viewed using the SOCIETY commands.

(Exception: No points are required for rank 1.)

The most common method for acquiring "recognition points" is by killing Grimswarm creatures. When each such creature is killed, you will be informed of any recognition points earned from it.

"Recognition Points" (along with experience) are also awarded by the local outpost's Taskmaster upon completion of a task.
