We take progression raiding seriously and expect that all applicants share our dedication to strive for standards and practices that enhance everyone's raiding experience by successfully clearing raid content through improving communication, being trustworthy, and always trying our best. 

Joining a raid team

• You'll apply after reading these expectations

• Raid spots are assigned

• As a new training team is formed, the current training team will become a progression team

  • Being on a training team is a more casual experience and you can always choose to stay with the relaxed atmosphere of the training team rather than move to a progression team.

You might be rotated in/out for another guild member at the discretion of Rhade or a Raid Captain for any one of many reasons:

• DPS is not high enough to help progress

• A different player is better suited for a fight

• To help other players obtain better gear

• Lack of skill/experience

In the event your skill level, gear, DPS or rotation knowledge excludes you from fights, training is available. We want you to be the best at your class and spec.

We will do everything we can to ensure that everyone gets time to play with others at their skill level.

Leadership

It is your responsibility to listen to raid leadership.

The group leaders are responsible for:

• Collecting decorations

• Explaining fights, calling out mechanics

• Keeping raids on time and on track

  • Forming the group up on time

  • Sometimes this means:

    • ending conversations abruptly

    • switching out team members

Progression

Wipes give us an opportunity to improve group cohesion through:

• Talking openly about mistakes

• Learning from constructive advice

• Figuring out weak points in playstyle

• Driving for perfection

Do not be surprised if we go over these errors or mistakes publicly if they are a consistent problem. It isn't personal, sometimes leaders need to communicate to adjust and teach.

Persistent challenges

If a player has continuous overwhelming issues, officers or class mentors will outline issues a player may have to address.

If the issue is persistently stopping group progression or a player is unwilling to make changes, a player may be asked to resign at the discretion of the raid leader. Players may always ask for training, resignation only affects participation in progression content until improvement.

While PC/internet issues are not necessarily a player's fault, they do impact the team’s overall ability to clear the content and ultimately replacing a player who has overwhelming computer related issues might seem harsh to some, but it's also unfair to the other 7 (or 15) individuals time to wipe unnecessarily due to one individual’s problems.

Know the fights!

While seeing and doing are separate things and we expect hiccups, "I've never done it," is no an excuse to come ill-prepared.
