If you are not satisfied with your current guild or wish to create your own, you have the option to leave your current guild in Lost Ark. However, it's important to note that leaving a guild incurs a four-day penalty period. During this time, you cannot join another guild or create a new one, regardless of whether you left or got kicked out.

The duration of this restriction is determined by the number of times the player has left guilds in the past. The penalty for the first time is 24 hours, but it increases significantly with each subsequent departure.

The penalty periods for leaving a guild are as follows:

  • 4 days for the second time
  • 8 days for the third time
  • 16 days for the fourth time
  • 32 days for the fifth time.

So there you have it. That's everything you need to know about leaving a Guild in Lost Ark.
