I am a level 60 Jedi Guardian (Charlemagnus), and have been playing for only the past few months with my oldest son, who is attending university in CA (although I am on the east coast), and has recently been in doing RD work in Kenya. Thus, I am now left without a comrade, and have not engaged anyone on the game socially beside him. This was fine for a season, but last night I was unable to complete my storyline on Oricon (so close to being ready to head to Rishi), as it was an Ops mission (Dread Fortress), and I realized that it is time for me to join a guild and get to know other players.
I'm in my mid-forties, very easy to get along with, am interested in joining a guild with nice players who enjoy the game. Although I joined a PVP server to accommodate my son's location and preference, the only part of the game I have not gotten used to is being continuously attacked while I am running various missions. I am fastidious about my character (currently fully equipped and augmented at 186 and just beginning to collect elite coms for the next set of 192 mods), and reasonably adept at the game, but I think there is a great deal I do not know, and so I want to learn from seasoned players. Additionally, I want to partner with other players to help them with Heroics and Flashpoints, as well as be helped myself (ie. I need help with the Oricon Ops mission at the moment).
Any counsel on which guild might be a good fit for me would be appreciated. I am happy to go through whatever formal 'beginner' training might be expected of me, and pull my weight accordingly. I sometimes travel for workl, but am on often enough to contribute significantly. Thanks, and looking forward to getting to know my future guild colleagues!
