Welcome weary travellers! Pull up a chair, join us for a drink and let us entertain you with our tale.

Ascension was formed on January 17 2014; The primary focus of our guild is to raid heroics throughout the rest of Mists of Pandaria and Mythic raiding in Warlords of Draenor. Many of our players have been playing WoW since its initial launch in 2004 and We are a tight-knit group of players that enjoy the challenge and focus of heroic raiding but have never abandoned the fun, the laughs, and the social aspects of MMO gaming. This is our virtual family and the word family isn't an exaggeration.

As one of the few remaining 25 man raiding guilds on the server our goals are to raid heroic content throughout our time remaining on Pandaria. Garrosh must fall for his treachery and we will see it done (heroically)!

After dealing with Garrosh we will throw ourselves at Mythic raiding in Outland with the newly announced Warlords of Draenor expansion. We believe in getting the most out of the game and as such will continue to raid at the highest levels and by proxy be a top level guild on the server.

RECRUITMENT

Ascension is now recruiting several classes/specs:

Druid Dps/Healer
Monk Dps/Healer
Shaman Dps/Healer
All other Classes for Dps

We will always consider excellent applications but some classes are filled.


If you are interested in Ascension please feel free to contact our recruitment officer, duey#2819, for a chat. Adding a note stating stating your interest will help to make sure you will get a response.

Due to the inherent complexities of raiding with 25 players we need to carefully consider if and how applicants will fit into our team. As such we ask that all applicants take the time to make a complete and detailed application. Dazzle and impress us because we like to be WoW-ed. A half filled Application will unfortunately result in an automatic denial.

Should you be invited to the guild, your trial period will last for 4 weeks. Our recruitment officer, raid leader and role leader will sit down with you after 2 weeks for a halfway evaluation to let you know how it is going. During these 4 weeks it is important that you be present as much as possible. Show us what you can do in a raiding environment, and show us that you fit into our family in a social environment.

All trialists are expected to turn up to raids fully prepared with consumables appropriate to their class and to have their gear and spec fully optimised. Keep in mind that we are raiding heroics and you will be thrown in the deep end so to speak.

RAID SCHEDULE

LOOT DISTRIBUTION
Ascension operates and distributes loot via a loot council type system. Raiders will receive loot based on their attendance in raids and the number of recent items received. On a case by case basis the Loot Council will assign gear to raiders for the benefit of the team as a whole. Ascension raiding is about the team as whole achieving its goals, not individual raiders getting shiny purple pixels. While our main raiders will have priority of loot over trialists we firmly believe that putting in the effort to raid with us results in eligibility of loot. Additionally we cannot efficiently judge performance if our trialists never receive gear. So as long as you put in the effort you will be eligible for the fruits of your labor.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM ASCENSION
Ascension is a virtual family of like minded players. If you join us you can expect a friendly, welcoming and relaxed social atmosphere. There is usually a lot going on in the form of Guild Heroic Scenarios and Dungeons, old content farming, achievement runs, flex and alt raiding. Above all there are always lots of laughs.

Ascension will also offer you a very focused and serious raiding experience. We raid progression heroics, and as such offer a challenging environment to sharpen your skills. While we expect a lot from our raiders in terms of focus, commitment and preparation such expectations are always rewarded. Our results speak for themselves.

Ascension provides its raiders with the very best in terms of food, gems and enchants depending on availability. Guild repairs will usually also be activated during progression nights.


That concludes our tale for tonight. We hope you enjoyed your drink and the information we provided. Should our paths cross in the future I look forward to taking up the sword with you and achieving further greatness!

May all your travels be met with success and prosperity. Farewell.
