This thread was meant to be posted last year, but here it is now!
I will give you upcoming hat chasers tips on how to succeed in obtaining that hat you've been fantasizing about!
-Check the guild out: you need to have some background information on the guild, a decent leader with the right attitude towards towering, friendly and active members.
-Make Friends: this tip here will aid you throughout your hat chasing career, and graal in that matter. Friends are what really makes spending long hours at forts so enjoyable.
-Don't Create Enemies: No matter what happens, how idiotic the person might be, it is the most foolish thing you can do while towering. That person might stab you in the back and diminish your chances of receiving the hat.
-Be a suck up to leads: this one isn't really my favorite tip of all, but it does come in handy as being warm to leads will give you the edge in obtaining the hat.
-BE ACTIVE: Life beyond graal is just a fantasy, no life, skip school for all it takes for obtaining that fabled hat. Graal is what will help you succeed, school won't.
-BE SUPER ACTIVE WHEN NEARING 1k: I have noticed quite a few times that leads begin to notice you when the guild is nearing its climax. You have to play Graal 24/7 when the guild hits 900+
If all else fails in your quest for a luxurious hat, you have only 1 thing left to do:
BRIBE: This may only work depending on the nature of the lead(s)
I hope you all learned something while reading my guide, may it helps you for years to come!
Please don't refrain from adding your own tips!
