Concerning guilds

I'm more or less new to this game and am finding it really fun. I have made my guild now and want to know what i need to make a cape for my guys to where. I know this sounds increadibly n00bish but i would like an answer.

Go to the guy that you made your guild with and about 5 ft from him is another guy that does capes.

2P needed to buy one.

Yeah, it's pretty expensive at the start to make the capes. You may have to "build up" your cash flow and dyes a while before you can afford it. I belong to a guild, but originally I was going to do my own until I saw how much it would cost for this former n00b to get enough gold!

Another side thought, make sure you get the kits to salvage items you find and don't want. A lot of them will give you iron which will help get you better armor in the post searing stage in Ascalon. Buying iron ignots is much more expensive than finding salvaged ones from unneeded swords, and such.

Ok then but what does 2p mean?

2000gp

it's alot of gold so how do people manage to get it all.

as progress through the game gold becomes easier to get in larger amounts, and if you find runes or other upgrades (shafts, pommels, wraps, grips) that you don't need, you can sell them to other players for a fair bit of money, same with dies.

Once you are level 10-12 they money will be coming much easier (although 2p is still a lot of money then)

My 10th level character ranger/monk amassed enough money to buy a guild and a cape shortly after getting to ascalon. Of course I was scrimping and saving (and didn't know what I was saving for at the Time) and for a while afterwards I kind of felt the pinch for money. It's not that bad though. I left pre-sear Ascalon with almost 1000gp without doing any buying/selling.

to get my capes in my guild... i merely started up a guild, and when people started asking about capes i told them that if they coud give me some gold for the cause then we could get them alot sooner... i got 1/2 the money from these contributions

From ascalon (Pre~Searing) I raised 2k easily on the gargoyles that nest just inside the catcombs. Every one of 'em drops SOMTHING, skulls are worth a decent amount (at this point in the game anywho) theres alot of them in that area and best of all, they dont link. Well, ok one or 2 of 'em do but 95% of em dont.

At that stage of the game quantity wins over quality every time.
