Hey together!
Yes, raids are cool, aren’t they? Unfortunately not everyone yet did the opportunity to discover that.
Situation
In my guild (a lovely smaller social guild with casual attitude) I have the following situation:
- People which are very keen on raids got into raid guilds or set raid teams and have their raiding with them. They therefore got quite experienced.
- People interested in raids, but without intention to join other groups for it. Some simple because of limited time (and every friendship needs care
). They have very few raiding experience.
Idea
My idea is to establish a raid training team with possibly the same people every week, so that every sunday at 6pm the team goes for Vale Guardian and can train the mechanics and gather experience in a not so much changing environment.
As you might guess, the more raid experienced people in my guild are not thaaat very keen on joining this sunday training, especially because they might have done their week raiding already, for sure VG
So in the end I have not enough people that want to train VG left to fill a team.
Goal
What do I aim for with this post? I want to check if there are people which would be interested in being on a ‘fill up’ list for the raid training team. So basically, they wouldn’t be a set team member (cause I’d always prefer my guildies, sorry) but if they are online at training time and we need more team members I would ask them if they want to join. Maybe we can even set the team on saturdays, so people know one day before if they are in or not for the next run. So over time, we could ideally establish a kind of a friendship and get together for raiding sometimes.
Requirements / Expectations
You’d need to be nice, friendly and patient – that’s the most important part. As this runs will have a ‘training’ label, don’t expect a kill, so the expectations should be right.
You should know the VG mechanic basics, I don’t care if you never did it but read about them, did it one or a few time without a kill or regularly kill it. Just be prepared, have full exotic gear with a proper build and if possible ascended trinkets and/or weapons. Oh and TS3 would be a must for easy communication.
Interested?
If you think that could be a possible option for you, just contact me ingame preferably, message or whisper. We will talk a bit and I will try to get a feeling if you are roughly like-minded (basically what I do with every guild-interest, but I really want to find nice people for this). If we both think we could have fun training raiding together, I’ll add you on my list and maybe contact you soon for filling up a run.
I don’t know if that will work, but I really want to try to give more of my guildies an opportunity for raiding, so let’s see if someone contacts me
Have fun!
