Raids

Raids

 * We aim to raid twice a week: Wed/Sun, from 8pm-11pm (all days/times TBD).
 * Exception: during P1, we may have only one raid day for 25s (Sunday?).
 * Attendance will be taken for every 25-player raid. 10-player raids will be considered optional.
 * Suboptimal/PVP builds are welcome to join, but are warned that they will likely be lower in raid priority if a bench is necessary.
 * Our raiding priorities, in general:
 * 1) Progression: clear phase-relevant content in a timely manner.
 * 2) Efficiency: clear content more cleanly with minimum wipes and deaths.
 * 3) Farm: clear content as quickly as possible and get all the loot!

Raider Goals & Expectations

 * Reliability. This means actively preparing and being ready for raids, keeping up to date through Discord, and not needing to be pinged or chased down to sign up/show up.


 * Effort. This means things like paying attention during raids, bringing necessary consumes, putting in the work to obtain non-raid gear/items to help with progression, and pre-raid prep like watching strategy videos or other material prepped by the RL.


 * Willingness to learn. Everyone makes mistakes, but the idea would be to not make the same mistakes repeatedly. Raiders should be willing to take constructive criticism and put in the practice/research to try and improve performance if necessary.


 * Willingness to help. We will definitely need to farm past tiers to help gear up the raid, and raiders should be prepared to come assist, even if there's no more personal loot in it for them.


 * No negativity. We understand raiding can be frustrating, loot RNG can be awful, and farm raids can be boring. But please keep in mind we're doing this as a team, and if you are unhappy raiding then you can simply not raid.

Loot

 * We run a Loot Council system, details TBD.
 * Our priority with loot will be to distribute loot in a way that most benefits the raid overall.
 * Note that while we call ourselves "semi-hardcore," who tops the meters is not our main concern.
 * A spreadsheet will be kept where Raiders can see who is currently 1st and 2nd in line for loot for that week, where applicable.
 * As before, suboptimal/PVP builds are welcome to join, but are warned that they will likely be lower in loot priority (especially during progression). Social members and alts are also considered generally secondary priority for loot.

Loot Council

 * Our Loot Council will be made up of 6 officers: PS, RL, and 4 Role Leads (Tank, MDPS, RDPS, Heal).
 * Role Leads take point in determining who gets what loot in what order - the PS and RL are there to break ties if needed.
 * Loot Council decisions will be made based on, in order of priority:
 * 1) Attendance (are you there every raid? do you show up on time?)
 * 2) Raid Effort (do you bring consumes? do you pay attention?)
 * 3) Out-of-Raid Effort (do you need to be chased down every week?)
 * 4) Performance (last resort, in the event of ties)
 * Loot Council meetings will be held at a set time (TBD), and any guildie that wants to sit in and listen is free to join in.
