I've tried just putting it into the task that is called when Client.Ready activates. I use exactly the same code as in Commands with CommandContext and it works totally fine there but here it doesn't for some reason. Everything seems to be null / default values in the Guild that gets returned. I guess this initial Client is somehow different to CommandContext but I have no idea how else I could do that
var Server = await Client.GetGuildAsync(...);

don't put any logic that requires data from discord into Ready, ever, for any reason

The READY event refers to Discord, not the client

tl;dr this event is fired when Discord is ready to start sending gateway events; cache (members/guilds) are populated as these events come in.

You probably want GuildDownloadCompleted instead

The Ready event on the client only signals that your client has completed a handshake with the gateway, and it's ready to start streaming payloads to you.

This isn't to say you should never use it, but for a vast majority of uses, there is no point in using this event, and it simply exists for completeness and correctness.
