Cookie Run Kingdom is a vibrant mobile RPG where players build their dream kingdom, collect adorable cookies, and team up with others in guilds for exciting battles and rewards. But what if you’ve outgrown your current guild or want to explore new opportunities? Leaving a guild is simple, but there are a few things you should know before making the switch. Whether you’re a regular member or the leader, this guide will walk you through the process step by step.
Before diving into the steps, let’s talk about why players might want to leave their guild. Maybe your guild isn’t as active as you’d like, or perhaps you’re looking for a more competitive group to tackle Guild Battles. Some players even leave to start their own guilds. Whatever your reason, it’s important to remember that leaving a guild comes with a short cooldown period before you can join another one, so timing matters.
How to Leave a Guild as a Member
If you’re not the leader, leaving a guild is straightforward. Here’s how to do it:
- Open the Guild Menu – Tap the guild banner in the top-left corner of your screen. This will take you to your guild’s main page.
- Access Guild Info – Tap the guild banner again to open the Guild Info menu.
- Select “Leave” – You’ll see an option to leave the guild. Confirm your decision, and you’ll be removed immediately.
Once you leave, you’ll have to wait 24 hours before joining or creating a new guild. Additionally, if you change your mind and want to rejoin the same guild, you’ll need to wait seven days unless the leader sends you a new invite. Keep in mind that leaving will also reset your activity points, so it’s best to claim any pending rewards before exiting.
How to Leave a Guild as the Leader
Leaving a guild as the leader is a bit more involved because you can’t just abandon your responsibilities. You have two options:
- Transfer Leadership – If your guild has active members, you can pass the leadership role to someone else. Open the member list, select a trustworthy player, and choose the “Transfer Leadership” option. Once they accept, you’ll be free to leave like any other member.
- Disband the Guild – If no one else is active or you want to close the guild entirely, you’ll need to kick all members first. Then, go to the Guild Info menu and select “Close Guild.” You’ll have to type the guild’s name exactly (case-sensitive) to confirm.
Things to Consider Before Leaving
- Guild Battle Rewards – If you leave mid-season, you’ll forfeit any unclaimed rewards from Guild Battles. Make sure to collect them beforehand.
- Activity Points – These reset when you leave, so if you’ve been grinding for contributions, it might be worth waiting until after a reset.
- Future Plans – Since there’s a 24-hour cooldown, plan your exit so you’re not stuck guild-less during an important event.
What to Do After Leaving
Once you’ve left your guild, you might be wondering what’s next. Here are a few options:
- Join a New Guild – Browse the guild recruitment list or ask friends for recommendations. Look for guilds with active members and goals that match yours.
- Create Your Own Guild – If you’re feeling ambitious, you can start your own guild for 500 Crystals. Customize the name, description, and entry requirements to attract like-minded players.
- Take a Break – If you’re not ready to commit to another guild right away, use the time to focus on solo content like World Exploration or Kingdom upgrades.
