Navigating the world of Pilgrammed requires more than just sharp reflexes; it requires the right allegiances. The introduction of pilgrammed guilds has revolutionized endgame progression, offering players specialized techniques, powerful weaponry, and unique cosmetics that define their playstyle. Whether you are looking to dominate in PvP or conquer the most difficult bosses, understanding how these factions function is essential for any serious player.
In this guide, we will break down the four primary pilgrammed guilds, explaining how to join them, how to level up your reputation, and which rewards are worth the grind. From the collection-focused tasks of the Egg Observatory to the high-stakes Rifts of the Chaos Cultists, every guild offers a distinct path to power. Follow these steps to maximize your efficiency and unlock the full potential of your character in 2026.
Understanding the Guild System and Ranking
The guild system is built around five distinct ranks. Every player starts as a novice and must complete specific tasks or quests to earn experience (XP) within their chosen faction. A critical mechanic to remember is the "Main Guild" designation. While you can participate in multiple guilds, you can only set one as your Main Guild at a time.
If a guild is not set as your Main Guild, your progress is capped at Rank 3. To reach the prestigious Rank 5 and unlock the most powerful endgame recipes and cosmetics, you must commit to that guild as your primary faction.
| Rank | Milestone Reward Type | Access Level |
|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | Initial Technique/Weapon | All Members |
| Rank 2 | Advanced Technique | All Members |
| Rank 3 | Core Guild Technique | Max for Sub-Guilds |
| Rank 4 | Endgame Crafting Recipes | Main Guild Only |
| Rank 5 | Ultimate Cosmetic & Mastery | Main Guild Only |
💡 Tip: When you unlock Rank 4 crafting recipes, be sure to craft the items immediately. If you switch your Main Guild before crafting them, you may lose access to those specific recipes until you switch back.
How to Join Every Guild in Pilgrammed
Each of the pilgrammed guilds is hidden in a specific biome, often requiring players to complete mini-quests or navigate difficult terrain to find the recruitment NPC.
The Elite Knights
Located in the forest biome beneath the Prairie, the Elite Knights focus on boss hunting and PvE excellence. To join, head south from the Prairie until you reach the forested area and speak with the guild master NPC.
The Egg Observatory
This guild is situated on a shore-side island. The most efficient way to reach it early in the game is by using the Volcano Mirror to teleport nearby, then taking a boat to the observatory. Speak to the skeleton NPC on top of the structure to enlist.
The Kai Legion
The Kai Legion is the premier choice for PvP enthusiasts. You can find them in the Savannah biome. Joining is straightforward, but leveling requires you to engage in duels with other players.
The Chaos Cultists
Widely considered the most difficult guild to join and level, the Chaos Cultists are hidden behind a secret crevice in the Mountain Basin. Before you can join, you must complete a quest for an NPC named Ra Rap, which involves gathering a Normal Claw and 100 Chaos Essence.
The Elite Knights: Mastery of the Blade
The Elite Knights are perfect for players who enjoy cooperative boss fights. Leveling this guild is primarily done by defeating bosses with friends or completing specific combat tasks tracked in your quest log.
Key Weapons and Techniques
- Upheaval (Rank 1): A powerful technique compatible with Boulder Blades and all Maul-class weapons. It allows the player to kick the ground, dealing AOE damage and summoning rocks.
- Twisted Technique (Rank 2): Designed for Greatswords, this technique adds a massive damage multiplier to your next heavy swing after a brief charge.
- Arrow Rain (Rank 3): A must-have for archers using light bows or crossbows, raining down projectiles on a wide area.
- Crystal Spine: A unique Rapier that trades distance-scaling damage for a massive burst-damage heavy attack that shoots crystals.
⚠️ Warning: The Elite Shield technique (Rank 4) functions differently depending on which shield you have equipped. Some reflect Poise damage, while others release slime or nails upon a shield break.
The Kai Legion: The Path of the Warrior
The Kai Legion rewards those who test their mettle against other players. While it is a PvP-centric guild, many players choose to level it by dueling friends in the Savannah.
The Ceremonial Greatblade Quest
To unlock the signature weapon of the Kai Legion, you must find the "Soup NPC" to obtain the Legion Key. Once acquired, head to the hidden ledge near the Naga boss area, enter the crevice in the wall, and unlock the door to claim your free Ceremonial Greatblade.
| Weapon | Type | Unique Mechanic |
|---|---|---|
| Kismith Hammer | Blunt | Features a unique third-hit slam with 33% extra damage. |
| Azure Pinwheel | Melee/Lightning | Aerial attack shoots lightning; heavy attack acts like a chainsaw. |
| Azure Rocket | Ranged | Shoots lightning bolts when paired with explosive arrows. |
| Azure Firecrackers | Technique | A Rank 3 reward that works with swords, guns, and fists. |
The Egg Observatory: Ranged Superiority
If you prefer firearms and collection-based gameplay, the Egg Observatory is the most efficient choice among the pilgrammed guilds. Leveling here is often faster for veteran players who already have a backlog of rare materials.
Modern Firepower
The Egg Observatory provides access to the most advanced ranged weaponry in Pilgrammed. The Egg SMGs are a standout, offering fully automatic fire—a rarity in the game's sandbox. When using their built-in technique, they consume 10 bullets to launch a high-damage grenade.
For those who prefer traditional "scrap" weapons, the Rank 1 technique allows you to apply a "Corrosion" debuff. This is an advanced version of the bleed effect that deals significant damage over time, especially when combined with the Slime status effect.
The Chaos Cultists: Rift Hunting
The Chaos Cultists offer high-risk, high-reward gameplay. To level up, you must use a "Chaos Recorder" to find and enter Rifts scattered across the world. Inside these Rifts, you will face unique enemies that drop the XP required to reach Rank 5.
Occult Arts and Chaos Forms
The defining feature of this guild is the Occult Arts technique. This technique allows weapons like the Haunted Scythe or Blood Twin to toggle between two powerful forms:
- Blood Form: Consumes your own health to deal massive sweep damage and grant lifesteal.
- Chaos Form: Grants a random damage modifier (between 50% and 200%) on every swing and creates explosive impact zones.
Comparing Rank 5 Rewards
Reaching the maximum rank in a guild provides a unique cosmetic that signifies your dedication. These do not provide combat stats but are highly sought after for their visual effects.
- Kai Legion: Azure Blue Bracelets (flower-themed wristwear).
- Elite Knights: Unique Voice Lines (character shouts during combat actions).
- Egg Observatory: Eggy Friend (a small egg companion that follows you).
- Chaos Cultists: Chaos Brand (a glowing symbol on the hand that sparks with energy).

FAQ
Q: Can I join all the pilgrammed guilds at once?
A: Yes, you can be a member of all four guilds simultaneously. However, you can only progress past Rank 3 in the guild that is currently set as your "Main Guild."
Q: How do I change my Main Guild?
A: Visit the recruitment NPC for the guild you wish to join and select the option to "Make this my main guild." Note that this may affect your access to certain Rank 4 and 5 rewards from your previous guild.
Q: What is the fastest way to level up the Chaos Cultists?
A: The fastest method is clearing Rifts using the Chaos Recorder. Ensure you are prepared for high-intensity combat, as Rift enemies are significantly stronger than standard world mobs.

A: No, once you have unlocked and purchased a technique, it remains in your inventory. However, Rank 4 crafting recipes are only accessible while that guild is your Main Guild, unless you have already crafted the item.
