From UO:PvE Wiki
Join several NPC guilds and keep each reputation record separately.
Development source reviewed on 29 October 2026. In-game availability is unverified.
Join and manage membership#
Use [NPCGuilds, [Societies or [Reputation to open Reputation. Joining requires a living character, at least 30.0 relevant base skill and non-negative guild reputation. You can belong to more than one NPC guild; these are separate from player-run guilds.
| Guild | Relevant base skills |
|---|---|
| Crafter Guild | Blacksmithy, Tailoring, Carpentry, Tinkering, Alchemy, Inscription, Fletching, Cooking or Cartography |
| Bard School | Peacemaking, Discordance or Provocation, plus Musicianship |
| Fighting Academy | Swordsmanship, Mace Fighting, Fencing or Wrestling |
| Thieves Guild | Stealing, Lockpicking or Stealth |
| Mage Council | Magery or Necromancy |
| Hunter Guild | Tracking, Archery, Animal Taming or Tactics |
| Ossuary Covenant | Necromancy or Spirit Speak |
Skill and membership details#
The highest listed relevant base skill is normally used. For Bards, both Musicianship and one listed bard skill must meet the threshold. Equipment skill bonuses do not replace base skill.
Mage membership accepts Necromancy, but Mage commissions specifically require Magery. Ossuary commissions require Necromancy even though Spirit Speak can qualify for membership.
Leaving removes membership and the selected guild title but retains reputation and daily gain usage. Rejoining does not reset the daily allowance. This Thieves Guild membership does not waive separate player-theft rules.
