In the first season of "I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense," the guild battles in the second half were very exciting. Maple's "Maple Tree" rivals, "The Gathering of Holy Swords" and "The Land of the Flame Emperor," have a unique lineup of members, and the battles were full of highlights. In this article, we'd like to introduce you to the "guilds," an important element of "I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense," as well as Maple Tree's biggest rivals, "The Gathering of Holy Swords" and "The Land of the Flame Emperor."

Basic information about guilds

Medieval guilds

The original meaning of guild is various professional associations formed among merchants and industrialists in Western European cities from the Middle Ages to the early modern period. However, in online games, a group of players has come to be called a guild. However, each game has different names for it, such as "linkshell" in Final Fantasy 11 and "team" in Dragon Quest 10. In short, it is a group in the game that increases the fun of the game in various ways, such as interacting with other players and guild-only events.

Is guild ban lifted in Bofuri?

Sally and the Proof of the Light Bug

In "I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense," guilds were added as a new element after the second event. Golden bugs called "light bugs" appear on the field, and when you defeat them, they drop an item called "Proof of the Light Bug." You can use that item to buy an empty building as a guild home. And when you buy a guild home, a guild is formed. Maple started a guild called Maple Tree, but I'd like to introduce its rival guild.

The Gathering of Holy Swords, led by the strongest player

Members of the Gathering of Holy Swords

The Gathering of Holy Swords is a large guild led by Pain, who is known as the strongest player in the VRMMO game "New World Online". The main members are also top-class players, making it a large guild that can be said to be the best in the game in terms of both quality and number. In contrast to the small guild Maple Tree led by Maple, this is the guild's biggest rival.

The Strongest Player "Pain"

Pain

He is the guild master of the Gathering Holy Swords, and is a blonde, blue-eyed male player who is said to be the strongest in the game. He reached the second floor in the fastest time when it was released in the game, and was level 61 when Maple was level 29. He also won first place in the first event. In the first season of the anime, he did not show his face until episode 9 due to production, and finally appeared at the beginning of episode 10. His appearance felt like a long-awaited appearance of the strongest player.

A player with the skills to be the strongest

Pain attacks Maple

He is nicknamed "Holy Sword" and is a Holy Knight player who is adept at using light and holy attributes. In the 4th event, even though he received strengthening support from other members, he was the first to deal a fatal blow to Maple. His brave fighting figure is the perfect word to describe him as a "hero."

Holy Sword No. 2 "Dredd"

Dredd

He is the second most powerful member of the Holy Swords, who founded the Holy Swords with Pain. He placed second in the first event, although he was behind Pain. Before the second event, he met Maple and Sally at a cafe, and it was Dredd who told Sally where to get the "Super Acceleration" skill.

Speed is the best in the game

Dredd attacks the base

He is nicknamed "Godspeed" and is faster than Sally in terms of speed. His intuition is also outstanding, which is one of the reasons for Dredd's strength. He has black eyes and black hair, wears a bandana, and at first glance, he is a player who uses an assassin-style dagger. Although he does not use powerful area attacks, his speed and sharp intuition are enough to make him second in the first event.

Drag, a player just as he looks

Drag

He's a powerful fighter just as you'd expect from his good physique. He uses a double-edged axe as his weapon and is nicknamed "Jiwari". He placed 5th in the first event, and is definitely a top-class player. Like Dread, he met Maple and Sally at the cafe before the second event.

Frederica, the only female main player

Frederica Up

She is the main female magician in Gathering Holy Swords, and although she did not make the top 10 in the first event, her magician skills are top class. She has powerful skills such as the "Multiple Chant" skill, which allows her to activate multiple spells with less MP than usual, and the "Multiple Total Transfer" skill, which transfers all buffs on party members to a specific player. With "Multiple Total Transfer", she was able to strengthen Pain and deal a fatal blow to Maple.

Maple's benefactor?

Absolute Defense

In fact, Frederica was the first person Maple spoke to when she started playing "New World Online". At that time, Maple visited a hunting ground that was just right for beginners, and Frederica showed her the Western Forest. In that Western Forest, Maple acquired the skill "Absolute Defense" while playing with the white rabbit she first met. Frederica may have been the reason Maple stepped into the world of monsters.

Other members of "The Gathering of Holy Swords"

Frederica and the members of The Gathering of Holy Swords

The soldiers of The Gathering of Holy Swords, who are equipped with blue and white as the main colors, are also very excellent. They have a variety of talents, including reconnaissance, attack, magic, and production. They move according to the instructions of the four main members, and each player's skill seems to be quite high.

The Land of the Fire Emperor, led by the Charisma of Fire

Mii giving a speech

Before the guild element was added, this guild was already formed as a large party at the time of the second event. Although the quality and number of members are inferior to "The Gathering of Holy Swords", the guild boasts an army-like unity due to the leadership of the guild master. It is said to be one of the two major guilds alongside The Gathering of Holy Swords, and the main members are also unique and talented.

Fire User "Mii"

Mii

A female fire user who serves as the guild master of the Fire Emperor country. She placed 4th in the first event, and has red eyes and red hair, earning her the nickname "Fire Emperor." Her imposing demeanor and words are extremely charismatic, and she leads the guild. However, in reality, she is timid and cowardly. She ended up in her current situation as a result of acting in a dignified manner due to her initial success with her powerful skills.

Support Specialist "Mizari"

Mizari

A specialist in healing magic, she supports not only Mii but the entire guild. She is a blonde, green-eyed beauty who is nicknamed "Saint". As her name suggests, she has outstanding healing abilities, but she also has high attack skills such as Holy Javelin, and was ranked 10th in the first event. In addition to providing healing and other support, she is an important member who provides mental support to Mii.

Trap Specialist "Marx"

Marx

He is good at setting magic and has a great sense for traps, and can accurately set traps in places where players will get caught. For this reason, he is nicknamed "Trapper", and ordinary players cannot even get close to him. He freely handles traps with powerful attack power, binding power, and debuff effects, and won 8th place in the first event. He is quite small and often speaks and acts with a lack of confidence, but his strong defensive ability with traps is unmatched.

"Shin" is eager to defeat Kasumi

Shin

A male swordsman known as "Collapse Sword". Shin's skill "Collapse Sword" turns one sword into countless daggers, and is a technique that requires player skill to freely manipulate them to cut through opponents. Although he placed 7th in the first event, he was defeated by Kasumi, and has been a rival to her ever since. He also faced Kasumi in the 4th event, but was defeated. In fact, he had wanted to invite Kasumi to the "Country of the Fire Emperor", but Maple got there first, so it didn't happen.

Other members of the "Fire Emperor's Country"

Fire Emperor's Country

They are equipped with red and black clothing and hats. Like the Holy Swords that Gather, there is a diverse group of people, but they are a little inferior in terms of ability. The members were gathered because of Mii's charisma, so they are very united and will fight for Mii with all their might.

Summary of the guilds

Logo

There are many other guilds besides the "Gathering of Holy Swords" and "The Land of the Fire Emperor" that we introduced, but they were hardly introduced in the first season. In addition to the Maple Tree and the Gathering of Holy Swords and The Land of the Fire Emperor that we introduced this time, the names of guilds such as "Thunder Storm" and "Rapid Fire" are often seen at events. These guilds may also appear in the second season, so I hope you will watch the second season to find out. Thank you for reading to the end.
