I would assume that this will not go away. I would be willing to bet some Gil that it won't go away even if (or when) you switch guilds inorder to receive other guild point key items. I received Gold Purification recently, my goldsmithing level is 35. It took about 20 days or so to get it (40,000 guild points). My most recent item was Silver Masks. It only took either 2 or 3 to receive 4000+ points. Have fun.. --Svt--Sylph-- 2/25/05- I'll be switching guilds soon, I'll let you know if I lose the Key Item. 5/17/05- I haven't changed guilds yet, still figuring out what main guild I want.
