Runescape Clan

 

Most online role playing games have clans, and RuneScape is no exception. A clan is a group of gamers who have banded together for a number of reasons. Some members form a clan because they like adventuring together; others band together to get further in the game by trading items or working together to solve quests. There is a large number of clans a RuneScape player can join.
 

Finding the right clan can take some research, and players should talk with clan members to see how their clan works. Some clans are very organized, having in-game meetings and clan events. Others are less formal, with members preferring to simply meet up whenever several of them are online at the same time. Likewise, some clans have a rigid officer structure, with several members being elected as clan leaders. These leaders are usually in charge of planning clan events and promoting the clan.
 

Clan members generally add each other to their friends list so they can quickly see when other clan members are playing RuneScape, and many work together or chat often, even when not participating in a clan event or quest. Most clans ask their members to equip their characters with a clan-identifying item or object when the clan is working together as a whole. For example, a clan may ask its members to equip their characters with blue cloaks so they can be easily distinguished.
 

Some clans have specific requirements for new members. Some only accept players whose characters are at or above a specific level or are experienced in a certain skill. These rules aren’t designed to freeze new players out; rather, many clans began as a group of friends playing together. This means many of the clan members’ characters are near the same level and can participate in the same types of quests or events. However, new players shouldn’t be discouraged—many clans take on players of all levels or have higher level players “adopt” new players. Joining a clan like this is an excellent way for new gamers to learn about the ins and outs of RuneScape.

So what does a clan do? Most anything in RuneScape can become a clan event. Some clans complete quests together; others will hunt dangerous monsters together, assisting and backing each other up. Clans often organize player-killer events where one clan will fight another with the wining clan taking a small number of items or money from the losing one. Others like to organize fun events like holiday parties or games of tag.
 

One of the biggest aspects of any online RPG like RuneScape is the social aspect. Players can meet others from all over the world, and while a single player can build a group of associates fairly easily, a clan is a great way for new players to meet RuneScape experts and make many new online friends.
