Recruit for fit
Say what your alliance actually does: Alliance Duel, events, research, mutual support and the kind of atmosphere you enjoy. Vague promises attract vague expectations.
Ask useful questions
When are they usually online? What do they enjoy? Are they looking for competitive play, progression, friends or a quieter home? You are checking compatibility, not conducting a job interview.
Use R1 as a real trial
New members can start at R1 while they settle in. Explain how to participate, introduce them to people and review whether they fit. A trial without support tells you little.
Look for signs of commitment
Regular activity, curiosity, event participation and willingness to learn can matter more than raw Might. Strong players are welcome, but a high number on a profile is not a personality.
Keep recruiting even when things look healthy
Players inevitably move on. A steady pipeline is easier than panic-recruiting after ten departures.
