Are you a Self sufficient-Motivated-Alert-Reliable-Talented raider?
Do you consider yourself an extremely skilled and dedicated player, but don't want to commit to a hardcore raiding schedule?
If your answer is Yes, then Carpe Diem is the guild for you.
<Carpe Diem> is a long standing established guild on Thunderhorn, having our roots in the beginning of TBC and getting KJ down before the start of WoTLK. We have been progressing strong ever since.
Our Philosophy : We don't play much, but when we do, we play to the absolute best of our abilities. We have a number of our raiders hitting top spots on the WMO scoreboards to reflect that. We only have a 12 hour raid week, but we make those hours count. You are expected to be able to take constructive criticism. If you are defensive about everything and anything you might not be the right fit.

Currently we are working on Heroic Lich King, while still trying to farm ToGC for trinkets when we have time.. As a member of Carpe Diem you are expected to keep a competitive edge. Our target audience is players that have excellent situational awareness,do not complain when the wipes pile up when learning an encounter and who will go that extra mile to maximize their characters.
What we expect of you:
Knowledge: We're looking for players who stay up to date on not only all of their class changes and mechanics, but also the mechanics of raid encounters, other classes, and the game in general. Know the fights. Know how to min/max. Know how you should spec and gear for specific encounters. Know how to effectively play your offspec.
Dedication: Can you make our raid times? Are you prepared to give 100% into learning an encounter until we get it down or the raid is called? If your answer is no this isn't the guild for you. We do wipe, and it isn't always pretty, but we expect you to run back quickly and be ready to correct your mistakes.
Experience: If you don't have at least a little bit of hard mode experience, don't expect a warm reception. Ulduar or ToC, something to show you've raided encounters above the normal level. Experience in pre-nerf Sunwell or Old Naxxramas is a big plus.
Skill: Impress us. Show that you can consistently top the meter. Show that you rarely make mistakes. Show us that you know how to min/max. Mediocre raiders are a dime a dozen. We're looking for the exceptional raiders.
Good Attitude: We don't want people who are just in this for the gear. We don't want people who only show up on loot nights. We don't want people who constantly *%**% and moan about X class or Y boss. We raid to down bosses, get achievements, and have fun.
Classes We Want:
Ret Pally (1) --- medium
Rogue (1) --- high
Elemental Shaman (1) --- medium
Warlock (Demo) (1) --- low
Shadow Priest (1) --- low
