Well, there are a few people who only want to PvP in the guild, and there are a few people who like to do BGs alot. We're also looking towards making a rbg team but need more people with gear so there is that.

The server is solid over all, my only complaint is the AH being either empty or overpriced, but that does give you a chance to get some gold going. | ||

It wasn't the fact that we couldn't find someone to play with; it was the opposite in the literal sense (people were begging to play with us). We couldn't find anyone to play with that we could get decent ratings with. S3/S4 we sat ~2100 and S5/S6/S7 we sat ~2400. This isn't even amazing by any means, but it was well above what anyone else could hit on the server. I guess what I was really trying to ask is the quality and the quantity of quality PvP players on the server. | ||

Theres a fair number of PvPers on lightnings blade, but nearly no top-level players. Theres another horde-side guild called "Next Level" that is strictly PvP, and I think most are around your rating. As previously mentioned we hope to setup a RBG team in the future as well. We also held our meeting tonight, and tomorrow I'll finish writing up our semi-finalized raid classlist. Update tomorrow. | ||

We briefly discussed the merits of 10 man vs 25man raiding and it was decided that we'll be sticking (at least initially) to 10man raiding. This will allow us to have a more social aspect to the guild, while allowing us to maintain at least a single progression-minded 10man raidforce. We're currently lacking healers to create a secondary 10man, but our current hybrid members are encouraged to start collecting 378+ (Heroic HoT/LFR) offspec gear. We'll also be trying to specifically recruit healers over the next week to get the second group rolling. Our tentative schedule is currently based around 9pm EST on Tue/Wed/Thu, looking something like this: Tuesday 9pm EST – Guild LFR + Baradin Hold Wednesday 9pm EST – Guild 10man Runs Thursday 9pm EST – Nothing currently, perhaps either more 10mans or RBGs. It was also decided that we'll be shutting off guild repairs to start collecting a sum of gold to aid in purchasing the various guildbank tabs (6/7 is 5000gold), as well as to start creating a bank for MoP. The additional money will be used for purchasing crafting materials and BoE droppable epics early in the next expansion. Closer to the release of MoP we'll be discussing guild professions more in-depth, and we plan to select desigated "guild crafters" which will have access to the guild bank. This should allow them to powerlevel their profession (smithing, leatherworking, tailoring, enchanting, alchemy and jewelcrafting) quickly, opening up craftable BoE items. I'll also be on the look out for the following management positions (currently I will be approaching people I think are qualified to fill this positions based upon observation/fit and activity): Bank Manager – duties include investing guild gold into the auction house for profits. Recruitment Officers – relatively self explanatory, their job would be to help finding recruits by posting on various recruitment forums and helping to select or interview raid applicants. Officer – general guild duties would include raid leading, recruitment, mangaging guild funds to purchase flasks, potions, etc. Things such as loot distribution is up in the air right now. With our current plans of 10man raiding I don't believe there is a need for officer awarded loot or a DKP system, as long as people aren't greedy or stupid. However there has been discussion about creating a "prestige-DKP" system in which members can earn DKP by donating gold (or materials such as ore, cloth, herbs, gems, leather at their respective item:gold value) to the guild. These DKP points would be spent on prestige items such as raid-dropped mounts, pets, and other vanity items. After our meeting last night, this is roughly where our raiding roster sits right now. Those who were not level 85 yet were not included, as well as those with severe schedule conflicts. For those interested in coming over/starting, this should help you decide which classes are most valuable to us currently. This can obviously change quite rapidly so if your class is listed in low demand, but you're totally set on playing that, we could attempt to figure something out. Warriors:Spacek[DPS], Frekavitch[Prot], Deathknights:Natis[DPS], Bizqwik[DPS], Chulgu[Blood] Rogues:Dissertation, Pertinax Warlocks: NONE Mages:Yethik, Confidant, Scintillia Hunters: Archondreth, Solidux Priests: Lotte[Shadow/Any], Philthetank[Shadow/Any] Shamans: Brasidas[Enh], Mirya[Resto] Druids: Korsin[Resto], Nvr[Feral], Kinji[Resto] Paladins:Datte[Holy], Ouchlawl[Prot], Torenhire[Prot] Totals Melee DPS [6]: Brasidas[Enh]. SpaceK[War], Natis[DK], Bizqwik[DK], Dissertation[Rog], Pertinax[Rog] Range DPS [7]: Phil[Shadow], Llotte[Shadow], Yethik[Mage], Confidant[Mage], Scintillia[Mage], Archondreth[Hunt], Solidux[Hunt] Healers [4]: Mirya[RestoShm], Korsin[RestoDruid], Kinji[RestoDruid], Datte[HolyPal] Tanks [3-5]:Mihai[BloodDK], Toren[ProtPal], Nvr[Feral], Ouch[ProtPal?], Frekavitch[ProtWar?] As you can see, we're currently sitting at zero warlocks, and we're relatively short on healing as well (specifically priests). Having said that, our recruitment needs are as follows: High Priority: Priests(Disc/Holy), Warlocks Medium Priority: Druid(Balance), Healer(Any) Low Priority: Rogue, Mage, Paladin(Ret) *If your name wasn't included in the above lists, and you're level 85, raid ready, and plan to raid (Tue/Wed/Thur @ 9pm EST) feel free to PM me and I'll update. Also, after our meeting was concluded with took a group of 10 to dragonsoul (10m normal) and cleared the place in roughly 3 hours. Which wasn't terrible considering 9/10 people had no experience outside of LFR and most had hit level 85 the week before. So I hope this clears up any questions anyone had regarding the guild. As usual, if you need a scroll of ressurection feel free to PM me and I'll get one for you. | ||

As for the loot system; would me and my friends be allowed to claim some loot during raids that we attend, despite not being part of the core raiding group? Also, once I build up some trust with the guild I'd be happy to be the 'Bank Manager', as I've nearly hit gold cap on two different servers in the past. Last question, for the scroll of ressurection, do you get both a free level 80 and a faction/server transfer? It almost sounds too good to be true, but that's the impression I get when reading about it on the blizzard website. | ||

My preferable class would be a disc (maybe holy for PvE) priest, and my friends would most likely be playing Warlock and Shaman (primarily ele) again. I'll have a serious talk with them soon as we're all pretty bogged down this week due to finals. I may go ahead and play with you guys regardless, since any team liquid community I've ever joined has been nothing but pleasurable. Cool, the guild so far is good times.  I find it unlikely we'll run into "leadership issues" like the last guild apparently did, if you were there.As for the loot system; would me and my friends be allowed to claim some loot during raids that we attend, despite not being part of the core raiding group?

So far loot is just Need if you do, Pass/Greed if you don't. I don't know how we'll rotate people in 10s once we're running them consistantly as we aren't anywhere close to that point, but like he said, we don't really have any kind of loot system in place, so bring your weighted dice :p Last question, for the scroll of ressurection, do you get both a free level 80 and a faction/server transfer?

No. Person giving Res - I actually don't remember if there is more to this, but you get a cool looking spectral mount if the person you refer buys at least a month of game time. Person receiving Res - Auto-level to 80 on any existing character (or make a level one AFTER you are res'd and claim the level 80 on him), Realm/Faction Xfer on any existing character. | ||

I mean, I don't regularly do it but I'm not going to lie; I have the option available to me and I hate farming honor (botting bg's would be the only thing that I bot). If the guild is totally against it I'm fine without botting too. Don't have any real stance, but if you get banned its your own fault. ps i hate honor farming too ;] | ||
