Question: Skill requirements for top soc

[Kombinator]

I wanted to see what the general skill requirements are for top 10 soc.

Is it just the total skill count (I guess 250K or so?), or is it also specific skills unlocked (Commando, etc) or is the gear a requirement as well?

Would love to hear informed responses from actual members of the top socs.

I am in Chaos Crew, #3 atm.. we have some times passed AoW on #2, when some people leave and other join... I would say 250-270k for #3 and #2 is good estimate.

Warants @ #1 I would say 300k to 350k

As for beeing on #10 I cant really say but around 190k to 210k is prolly good estimate.

Sorry if I cant be of more help.

thanks kimmi. are there also specific skill reqs (commando, ks, quickness, etc) for the soc or just total skill count?

well the last time i looked on the society terminal, chaos crew was asking for 230k total skill.

i have considered leaving my own society for a particular top 10 several times, and that society asks for commando, no actual skill requirement, per se, but certainly skills and gear to get the job done.

i keep telling them that i don't consider myself uber enough yet to join their ranks.

what I posted is not requirements, it is the estimated average skill count on top10 soc.

I have no clue what each society have for requirements. Some have age, some have totalskills, some have specific unlocked skills, some have language... etc etc...

As I said, I only posted what I guess is the skill count in some socs, I have no clue what total skill count is in Chaos Crew. I agree with you, AoW is a nice soc.

well, while i agree it is a nice society, as well, it's not the top 10 society i'm mentioning.

as far as i'm concerned, and this has been my feeling for at least 2 years, there is only one top 10 society worth being a member of. although, for sure, many of the current roster of chaos crew didn't think so.

but in my mind, there is really only one society that i consider to be truly uber when i look at that list.

Regarding the requirements to join a top-10 soc, each soc kinda has it's own set of rules. Go read the soc terminal and/or check out the top socs websites. (Those which has one)

My guess is that the average total skills for members in #10 soc is around ~175k... But that doesn't necessarily relate to the requirements.

IMHO the process of choosing a soc you want to join, and of a soc choosing people to admit, shouldn't really change much whether you are a top 10 soc or not even in the top 50.

Total skills are ofc important, but they are by no means the deciding factor. In general in BAHQ we want new members to be at or above our average skill level, but it's not because we have some magical affinity to 200k skills or whatever.. It just helps if people are at a similar skill and gear level to accomplish assorted society goals (soc hunts.. LG.. PK.. whatever).

There are exceptions of course.. I'll be the first to admit that when I joined BAHQ, I was a total noob compared to most of the other members.. hell I still am.. but here I am. On the other hand we have turned down plenty of people with commando and well over 200k skills.

So whats my point here? Ah who knows. I guess its that you should think about what soc you want to be a part of first, and worry about what their requirements are later.

The skill req must be above 200k, while it's about 160k for top 20
