Hail *NOR/
Today Cryptic released details about how the stronghold boons work and how you go about getting them. The full posts are here: they're not long, and well worth reading:
How the boons work: https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/never ... #collapse3
What the boons do: https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/never ... il/9480453
The Reader's Digest version is: there are four different categories of Stronghold boon: Offense, Defense, Utility, and PvP. You can only have one boon in each category active (i.e., granting its effects to you), but there are many different boons within each category to choose from. Boons become "unlocked" and choose-able when we build and level up the appropriate structure.
The guild's officers are the only ones who can decide what structures to build and level, and therefore what boons will be available to the guild. So I strongly suggest that the officers, at least, take a look at the boons and have a talk about what we want to build first.
But everyone in the guild is more than welcome to tell us what boons you think would be the best for the guild. Give us your suggestions!
Here's my two cents:
Offense: the Group Stat Bonus looks choice! If everyone in a party of five has this boon active, EVERYONE in the party gets +2400 power, crit, armor pen, recovery, and deflect. That's right: +2400 to EACH category. This one comes from the Barracks.
Defense: The Hit Points Bonus (+32,000 HP) or the Defense Bonus (+8,000 Defense) both look nice. They come from the Stables and the Wizard's Workshop, respectively.
Utility: The Revive Sickness boon (reduce your revive sickness cooldown by FOUR MINUTES) from the Temple is my fave.
PvP: *shrug*
What do you folks want?

Great idea, Tundrra - the poll is up in a separate thread :-)
