World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Guide: Guild Perks

In World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, Guild Perks were introduced, these are various rewards that encourage players to be in a guild and complete dungeons and raids as a Guild. 

In World of Warcraft, it is not mandatory to be in a guild, and some players even prefer not to. However, there are many advantages to being in a guild such as obtaining crafted items as opposed to buying them, help with dungeons, and group quests. With the new Guild Perks, it is even more advantageous to be part of an active guild.

Guild Levels and Achievements

Guild Perks are obtained by a guild obtaining levels, the more active players there are, the quicker a guild will gain levels. Players themselves will also earn reputation with their guild for completing quests, similar to obtaining reputation with a faction. The higher a player's guild reputation the more rewards they will be able to get. There are also guild achievements which can range from completing low level dungeons in a guild group, to killing 50,000 critters.
