I dunno though. I joined my friends' guild because I like playing with them, but they're a hardcore 3 nights a week with alt runs 2 other nights type raiders. I'd love to be that sort of guy again, but I don't have the time or energy tbh. I'll probably look for a different group to run with, but I'd miss raiding with friends. Conflicting.

LFR is definitely not the challenge you're looking for, and you should be able to find a guild that does Heroic raiding and raids less than 4-5 hours a week. It takes about an hour and a half to clear a raid instance once you have it on farm, and since tiers these days only have one raid instead of 2-3 like they used to, that's about two hours a week including prep time. Unless you're looking for a top 3 server guild then there's really no reason to raid more than two nights (four hours) a week. You will honestly spend longer in LFR because of all the "special" players in there (and more often than not one or both tanks seem to be, which further complicates the run). I think you should have no trouble finding a real 10m guild that only raids one or two nights a week. Probably depends on the server you are on. I started again playing a little of WoW when patch 5.4 was released. But all I ever did was LFR raids. Could not get into non-LFR raids because equipment too bad (they expected you to have equip from SoG normal to do SoG normal). Could not get into a guild because only LFR equip and limited time. Stopped playing then.
Surely its easier if you know people on the server. But if you dont know anyone because of long absence it can be quite annoying.

Can you only go on their alt run?

Can you only go on their alt run? I'm not even maxed out right now since I only resubbed last Tuesday, so I can't go on anything 
But yeah, if I wanted to join their actual raid group, I'd have to wait for a spot to open and then apply. Until then I'd only be going on alt runs, but their alt runs are Sat/Sun so I probably couldn't even do that since weekends can get busy for me. I'd either try to start a one day a week run with their alts, find another guild, or just do LFRs for a while.

Server is probably the single most important aspect of the game if you're a raider (or do various other things, such as economy or PvP). Now that I think about it, it's probably the most important thing regardless of what you do in the game. Raid? Need a healthy raiding population. PvP? Need a server with RBG groups. Roleplay? There are servers for that, too.
It does indeed suck being on a dead server because you really can't get anything done. I used to play on low pop servers because they were relaxing back in TBC/WoTLK, but back then "low pop" was designated the same as "medium" is today. Currently I wouldn't touch any server that doesn't say "High" in the server browser, and even those - aside from the big few like Illidan - are barely what "medium" was years ago.
At least Blizzard finally acknowledged the problem and consolidated from 200 something servers down to 20 something (all these connected realms are actually the servers being moved to the same hardware; Blizzard is getting rid of 90% of their physical servers). That should help a lot in WoD.

It just points to the fact that a significant number of people joined guilds just to raid, but now they don't need to.

Personally, I just like having some guys to log on and talk to in the evenings and raid with a couple times a week for fun. WoD looks like it will reinvigorate raiding guilds by removing the hard 10/25 man caps on non-mythic content and allowing people to field their entire roster rather than having people sit out and become disillusioned.

MMO-C has posted some armory data a few times and basically yes, the amount of people raiding has declined rather significantly since WoTLK. Unfortunately it's no big secret that finding a stable guild can be really, really hard (and that's for 10m; goodluck if you want to do 25m) and that's the main reason why I stopped leading my own guild, too. It got to be far too much effort replacing people on a weekly basis from an ever-shrinking player pool.
The guilds on high pop servers aren't any better; you still have people quitting every week and all the drama that goes with a guild nowadays, but at least you can fill those spots easily. I was in a server first guild before I moved to the TL guild and we disbanded after going three months without being able to replace two DPS that left. We tried out about a dozen different people and none of them were good enough, and we simply ran out of people on the server. Shortly after the #2 and #4 guilds transferred for the same reason.
High pop is the ONLY way to go if you want the least-stressful playing experience.

If you have a small guild, yes. Knowing that you will have a spot is better incentive to log on.

Any plans for a serious TL guild for WoD on EU? And by serious I mean people actually showing up to the raids on a regular basis.
|
To be perfectly honest there have been, what, half a dozen TL guilds over the years? Every single one has fallen apart due to attendance/reliability issues. And, speaking from my experience with numerous other TL communities... if it's not Starcraft (or I guess now Dota 2 and Hearthstone) people on here are flaky as shit.
I would personally look for a non-TL guild and simply add TLers via friends list to run flex and whatnot with. Best of both worlds I think.
|
I would agree with this wholeheartedly. The other problem is recruitment, where people who have no ties to TL have no attachment to the "name," so it just becomes another guild that has no achievements to speak of (outside of achievements of individual members, which carry far less cachet). Many quality raiders when looking for new guilds also seem to prioritize stability; and, as Serejai pointed out, while TL itself has been around for a long time, its WoW guilds haven't exactly had a great track record. Add in the fact that most people who decide to join a TL-focused endeavor probably had no intentions on recruitment of non-TL'ers to begin with, and the problems exacerbate and manifest in a variety of negative ways.
All in all, it's not worth the effort to form a "serious" TL-focused raiding guild. Maybe it's slightly different at the beginning of an expansion, where it's easier to gather momentum, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Hrmmm I was leveling a Druid a while ago before I quit (for probably the 8-9th time), but now I am thinking about resubbing to level it to 90 before WoD. Doesn't seem right to boost.
Whyyyy is this happenningg to meee???

Whyyyy is this happenningg to meee??? Because despite the hate for WoW, and parts of it is deserved, it is still the best package on the MMO market. Yes other games do bits of it better but looking at the whole game it is still the most rounded package for a lot of people.

I'm getting sucked back in. It's cool, I knew I'd probably buy WoD anyway. Gotta be around for the 10th Anniversary.
And I'd rather level the character and learn it. I'm sure they have tons of learn-your-new-90 stuff built in, but I dunno. Old-fashioned I guess.

Even near the end of the latest NA guild I do recall we had to find a non-TL tank and maybe a DPS or two? There were plenty of people interested in a TL guild, and I believe we had close to 100 players in the roster... but I'd say about 75% of those had been offline for well over a month and 15% didn't want to raid. That left about 10% of us that were actually active (which, as I stated earlier, meant we couldn't even field a 10m roster without 2-3 pugs).
And keep in mind this is all less than three months after the guild formed in the first place; we're not talking years here, but months/weeks (and even days for some members) before people disappeared. Something more viable would be a TL PvP group, or Challenge Mode group; or a flex group as I mentioned earlier (or normal? can that be done cross realm in WoD?).

I think all of the "flexible" raids can be done cross-realm; only mythic is realm-only for obvious reasons (achievements, etc.).
If only something like Wildstar's Circle system existed...would be much easier than adding everyone's battle tags.

We were always hurting for 1-2 dps, sometimes a tank. We ended up adding a couple DPS to the guild that were regulars in our pug slots, then others stopped showing up/left. Last couple weeks we just didn't raid because we didn't want to pug half.
You were never on tho >
Anyway, yeah, Heroic and below modes can be done xserver, I'd have no problem adding everyone from TL and xrealm raiding with them, at least as long as we don't have too many (opposite problem, I know) because this new shit laptop seems to have a lot of trouble in large groups.
