It is time for our guild spotlight, where we meet the close-knit adventurers of 'Seven Knights Re:BIRTH' (hereinafter SKRB). Recently, we have seen a growing trend of top-tier guilds creating 'second teams' because they simply cannot accommodate the influx of skilled players. The guilds 'Full Moon' and 'New Moon' have been operating as a dual-guild system from the start to preempt this issue. In essence, this is a massive collective with a maximum capacity of 60 active members.

When asked why they opted for such a large-scale operation, the leadership cited the enduring bonds from the original Seven Knights title. Many veterans wanted to continue their journey together in SKRB, leading to the rapid establishment of 'New Moon' to house the overflow. Usually, these secondary guilds suffer from a performance gap, but 'Full Moon' and 'New Moon' boast near-identical power levels. Let us dive into the story of these two wings that function as one.

The massive guild 'Full Moon & New Moon' forged by pure passion

Q. Could you give us a brief introduction to the guild?

A. 'Full Moon & New Moon' is a space to enjoy SKRB together, built on camaraderie and communication. We strive for a comfortable atmosphere where everyone takes responsibility for our collective growth.

Q. We heard the two guilds were established on different dates.

A. 'Full Moon' was founded on May 15th, the launch day of SKRB, while 'New Moon' followed on May 17th. We started big because of friends from the original Seven Knights. There were so many who wanted to join, plus new faces, that we quickly exceeded the maximum capacity. Realizing 'Full Moon' alone wouldn't cut it, we acted fast to launch 'New Moon' just two days later.

Q. What is the origin of the names 'Full Moon' and 'New Moon'?

A. Before launch, we brainstormed names with friends and settled on 'Full Moon' via a vote. Since 'New Moon' was created as a sibling guild, we wanted a name that paired with the complete lunar phase. Thus, we chose the term for the moon's dark phase, 'New Moon'.

Q. How do you handle your recruitment?

A. We use every accessible channel. We promote through the Naver Official Lounge, in-game, and our own open chat rooms.

Q. What are the key points of your promotion?

A. If I had to sum it up: 'Communication, Camaraderie, Manners, and Growth'. These four pillars define our direction. The fundamental rule is to enjoy the game without pressure to perform.

Q. What is the guild's greatest charm?

A. It has to be our harmonious atmosphere. Our open chat room is always buzzing. We also make active use of voice chat platforms. We constantly discuss SKRB-related topics, from arena decks and guild war setups to siege tactics and raid gear. The passion is, frankly, almost excessive. (Laughs)

Q. What kind of new members are you looking for?

A. Communication always comes first. We are looking for those who take pride in being part of 'Full Moon & New Moon' and genuinely enjoy the game.

The 'Biscuit' that changed the Siege Battle paradigm

Q. What are your recent Siege Battle scores and rankings?

A. We maintain an SSS grade with a combined score of 52 million on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. For the tougher Tuesday and Wednesday cycles, we hit around 37 million, securing an SS grade. We break our own high scores every week, so all-days SSS is within reach.

Q. Which Siege Battles do you focus on?

A. Mondays and Saturdays. Both castles have party compositions that are easier to build around specific gimmicks, making tactical optimization straightforward. Magic damage shines on Mondays, physical on Saturdays.

Q. Do you have any special know-how for Siege Battles?

A. It’s all about tactical understanding and gear optimization. You have to judge what’s possible with the heroes and specs you have, and you need a solid grasp of the PvE rules unique to SKRB. Even if you copy a high-score video, you won't replicate the results without understanding the 'why'. Use the videos as reference, but building your own deck is the best path.

Q. Which hero is rated highest for Siege Battles?

A. At the moment, 'Biscuit' is essential. The difference depending on whether you use 'Biscuit' or not is massive. Proper usage lowers the gear-setting barrier significantly and sky-rockets your potential score. I consider 'Biscuit' a core hero for hitting SSS.

Q. We heard 'Biscuit' is active in other content, too.

A. To be precise, 'Biscuit' triggered a massive shift in PvE. It impacts siege scores, raid clear times, and efficiency. Thanks to this, more people are showing interest in PvE content than before.

We even offer 1:1 coaching for PvE content!

Q. How is the guild's progress in the Tower of Infinity?

A. In 'Full Moon', 'DefenseStacker' cleared the 250th floor first, and in 'New Moon', 'Kkantu' was the first to scale it. Both finished the content at breakneck speed.

Q. Any tips for the Tower of Infinity?

A. Rather than a secret trick, it’s the result of our leadership working hard to support member growth. We have staff dedicated solely to PvE content in both guilds. They record siege runs, organize tactics, and share them. If asked, they even provide 1:1 coaching. Members who receive this guidance improve their scores and grow more attached to the guild.

Q. How has the 'Tower of Trials' been since the difficulty adjustment?

A. The stress has definitely decreased. Many of our members are now successfully securing the 120-medal rewards. It’s one of the most satisfying balance patches, as it brings back the fun of pure strategy.

Q. Which heroes are most useful for PvE content?

A. I’d pick 'Biscuit' and 'Lina' for their extreme versatility across all raids. Regardless of your growth stage, they pull their weight everywhere, making them the highest priority to obtain.

Q. What PvE content does the guild focus on the most?

A. Siege Battles. Since the arrival of 'Biscuit', the ceiling for scores has shifted entirely. Even those who weren't interested in the meta are joining the research effort. This has created a healthy, competitive synergy among us.

Victory in Guild Wars through PvP-dedicated management!

Q. The new Guild War season has begun.

A. We approached this season more systematically, addressing the shortcomings of the first. Those who felt frustrated by failures last season are seeing great results now, so we are excited for the remaining rounds. We plan to monitor the flow closely to keep the stress levels manageable.

Q. Are there any memorable opponents or episodes from last season?

A. The 'Wallpaper' guild from our first round this season stands out. Last season, we were often too flustered during matches. We had many shaky moments, but 'Wallpaper' was a good benchmark. Based on raw power, we would have lost in the past. Seeing us win comfortably this time made me realize just how much we’ve grown.

Q. What is a hidden 'joker pick' used in your Guild Wars?

A. Many are still in the research phase, so I can't share specifics, but we are all brainstorming setups centered around new heroes.

Q. Any recommendations for Guild War combinations?

A. People are feeling the power of Platin and Colt magic decks in the arena. Generally, a mix of Colt, Pai, Eileen, and Vanessa—or swapping Vanessa for Ace—seems to yield good results.

Q. Is there a hero particularly popular right now?

A. Lately, people are talking about the old Seven Knight, Juri. After a slight buff, we are discussing how to utilize her. Also, there is massive interest in Kyle, who hasn't even been released yet. Anyone who played the original Seven Knights knows the legacy. We are all waiting for Kyle's release, hoping to make him the core of our attack decks.

Q. What are the ranks of your arena-focused members?

A. 'Mia', who manages our PvP content in 'Full Moon', is the absolute top. Mia has deep knowledge of the arena, Total War, and Guild Wars, so we often seek advice from Mia.

For 'New Moon', the ace is 'Kkantu'. Kkantu has the highest adventure level, arena rank, and Total War tier. Kkantu participates in everything with passion and never hesitates to share wisdom.

Q. What is your performance evaluation of the three old Seven Knights?

A. Pai is the quintessential attack-deck hero. Recently, a damage-focused build utilizing the high burn-damage coefficient is trending. You'd be surprised at the numbers you see when you land a hit.

Rozy boasts incredible utility. Rozy revives allies while simultaneously granting them authority, making Rozy a real nuisance in defense decks. Even if you manage to shave health down below half, the 3-turn immunity makes Rozy useful in both adventure and arena.

Juri is definitely better at inflicting 'Eternity' after the recent buff. It renders death-trigger abilities useless, which is annoying for the opposition. However, compared to other old Seven Knights, the base stats are a bit underwhelming. The synergy with combo hits and CC rings is good, but the short duration of 'Eternity' and low skill damage make it quite conditional.

Q. Among the three old Seven Knights, who is the best pick for your guild?

A. We pick Pai, who shines in all PvP content and has a huge presence in Guild Wars. Before Rachel's buff, Pai was even used for high-score Siege Battle runs. Pai's potential is truly remarkable.

Goal: SSS in all Siege Battle castles and top 5% in Guild Wars!

Q. We heard you have a funny guild superstition.

A. We often gather for voice chat when everyone is online. When we summon heroes or pets together, our luck is strangely high. Watching everyone pull a Legendary-grade hero or pet via screen share is a blast. Now, the moment we enter the voice chat, everyone begs to summon.

Q. Is there any member you’d like to highlight or boast about?

A. I want to introduce our guild masters, 'FullMoonFigurehead' and 'IcePersimmonPrince'. Due to my work, I couldn't manage the guild thoroughly, and they stepped up to handle operations. They are also our mood makers. They are heroes with no lack in skill or passion. I am truly grateful they joined 'Full Moon & New Moon'!

Q. What is the future goal for 'Full Moon & New Moon'?

A. It's simple: SSS grade in all Siege Battle castles and a stable finish within the top 5% in Guild Wars. I think it’s fully achievable if we keep this momentum.

Q. Any plans for an offline gathering?

A. Of course! We are thinking of planning one when the opportunity arises. What will we do if all 60 of us show up? (Laughs)

Q. Anything you wish for SKRB?

A. Siege Battle rewards feel a bit meager for the effort. I’d love to see an overhauled reward system to motivate everyone. As for Guild War fatigue, the developers seem aware, but a concrete solution is needed. It’s manageable now, but if more content drops, it will become exhausting.

Also, running two guilds simultaneously presents many inconveniences. There is no way to see guild join/leave logs, which makes managing movement and recruitment very difficult. It feels like a simple feature, so I hope it gets implemented.

Q. A final word to your members!

A. To all members of 'Full Moon & New Moon', thank you for your active participation! I also want to send special thanks to the leadership who provided the foundation for our growth.

I know I have many limitations in managing the guild because I am busy. Thank you all for understanding, even if it might sound one-sided. Our growth is entirely due to the affection and dedication of every member. We will treasure that affection and keep growing.

I hope you enjoy your life in SKRB with 'Full Moon & New Moon' forever. Thank you!
