Website: wow-obscure(dot)com (Register on our website and have a chat with one of our officers or raiders)
Obscure is about to celebrate its three-year anniversary. We raid Mon/Wed/Sun 19:45-23:00. Raiding trialists are expected to attend the vast majority of these.
We currently have open spots for:
* 1 rogue
* 1 ret paladin (preferably with tanking offspec)
* 1 dps warrior (preferably with tanking offspec)
Raiding trialists are expected to come to raids fully prepared: that means having watched videos for the encounters, read the strategy threads on these forums, and knowing your class inside and out. Raiding only 9 hours a week means we just don't have time to brute-force an encounter - we focus on preparation, team-work and skill.
What you can expect from us:
A mature guild environment. And no, "mature" does not mean x-rated. Mature means that two grown women might be talking about their pregnancy experiences in guild chat. Mature means polite and drama-free. It doesn't mean we never swear, it does mean things like homophobic or racist comments are beyond our range of experience.
From a raiding perspective, "mature" means a stable raiding schedule. It means we don't massively over-recruit, but it also means that if you're having a bad night and standing in fire that you generally ask to be replaced before the raid leader does it. "Mature" means that while we sometimes use "serious voice" you're not going to be screamed at for making a mistake, although you are expected to own it.
What we look for in applications:
- Does your gemming, enchanting, speccing, and glyphing indicate that you've researched how to best perform your role in a heroic raiding environment?
- Do you have the best gear available to you and is it all gemmed and enchanted to the max?
- Have you put some effort into your application?
- Finally, we do look at your current gear level and raid experience.
What we look for during trials:
- high situational awareness
- high raid preparation
- extremely good raid discipline
- a casting rotation/style that indicates you know how to play your class
- a mature, intelligent person who's a good social fit; it's ok if you're shy, it's not ok if you're causing drama
- we also look at hps/dps, but only in the context of "are you getting what you can out of your current gear level?" and "are we able to make the enrage timer?"
Finally, please note that the Sha'tar is a RP-PVE realm. While we are in no way an RP guild, you are expected to abide by the realm rules, which amount to "no immersion-breaking chat in /say or /yell."
