UM change servers and guilds would be my suggestion. otherwise play your swash and tell them to find a brig. If they need a brig bad they will pony up if they dont screw them.

while its probably not a common occurence on a PVE server, PVP raiding guilds (at least the exiled ones) do occasionally ask members to betray to a different class. recruiting worthy players for a hardcore raiding guild is incredibly difficult on a server that is designed for casual PvP, does not allow x-server transfers, and doesn't allow even talking outside your faction (and for an exiled faction that consists of 2-3 guilds and basically few to none random people, thats a challenge).

so it happens. however, any guild should be willing to reimburse you the full cost of a set of AD3's, plus the cost of MC/legendary armor in whatever slots had class-specific armor before. if not, tell them to fuck off, because that's unfair to you.
