Update for The War Within

XFaction has had to undergo significant changes for TWW with the introduction of the cross-realm guild functionality. The stress test is complete as of 8/23/2024 and most confederates known to us have implemented the new TWW build. For support and timely updates, go to our new support server.

Update: The guild achievement spam is a Blizzard-side issue and not due to XFaction. We have written up a workaround in the interim in our FAQ.

XFaction is a World of Warcraft add-on that enables guilds of a confederate to share a common guild chat, including guilds of different factions. XFaction uses a variety of communication channels to share player information and chat communication to enable players to see each other, as if in the same guild. The core principle is to try to duplicate as much Blizzard guild functionality across the confederate so members do not feel like they are in separate guilds, but within the same (big) guild. Essentially, we're creating an illusion (I <3 Nightborne).

For a more detailed description of how the add-on does what it does, please reference the wiki or FAQ
