There are so many situations where the Fairy-tail guild gets into really tough
fights and in serious trouble!. Gildarts is extremely strong, how is that he
is not very involved in fights??

Why is that Gildarts not too involved in guild fights?


As said before Gildarts is a class S mage and he is almost always adventuring.
For example there was an episode when Gildarts came to the Guild and everyone
was doing a party.(I don´t remember in which episode it happened thought).
Even if he wanted to join the fight´s he would need some "days" to reach the
"battlefield".

<http://fairytail.wikia.com/wiki/Gildarts_Clive> The above link is a
bibliography about Gildarts Clive and it also mentions why he doesn't fight
often, not in a more clear way though. One of the reasons why I think he
doesn't fight like he used to be, after the casualties he faced in the battle
with Achonologia which nearly killed him. Yeah, but if you want more info just
take a look at the link above.

As others have mentioned, Guildarts isn't always around. You may recall there
is a special board with S rank jobs for S rank wizards, and those missions are
intense. So while the guild may be having trouble with one thing, Guildarts is
likely far away handling a different job of immense difficulty as well. He
simply may be busy and unable to leave.

1.He isn't around most of the time, doing so called decade or century quests
as he is a S-Class wizard. 2.Natsu and the guild need to show how strong their
plot armor and friendship power can be, instead of raw firepower. 3.It's no
fun to watch OP characters enter mid fight and defeat villains with ease.

Well he can't hold back when it comes to his powers and if he did fight like
that someone would be dead or severely injured. But there is also that he is
almost never at the guild.

Because Gildarts uses the magic "crash". If he participated in fights, the
anime would be boring because he would just touch the enemy, and make them
CRASH.

Basically, he's too powerful.

well since he being an S class Wizard is busy in far off lands dealing greater
,maybe he doesn't even know about them or the battles may be finished by the
time he reaches and it isn't much interesting if the big guys get involved
to...
