Which alliance should I join?

Top 10 on your server. Don't be loyal to dead alliances. Alliance Help + Whale Gifts save you weeks of progress. Alliance Guide →

Should I stay sectless / without an alliance?

No. The game doesn't call them sects (that's Where Winds Meet). But the same logic applies: join a top alliance within your first 3 days. The benefits are too big to skip.
