• Request a raid spot from the Team Raid Leader or an Officer.

• Be recruited as a raid trial.

• Read and agree with the raider expectations and guild rules.

• Show up to raid night on time and prepared.

• Practice and improve with your class/role.

• Complete 2 weeks worth of raiding. We will inform you of your trial status after this time, along with reasoning on why we may have passed on your trial.

• Heroic and below difficulty raids allow for more team flexibility, but if you are missing more raids than participating, we will fill your spot with a more consistent raider or new trial.

Below are the attributes we seek in our raiders. Ultimately, we want raiders who are enjoyable to be around, competent in their roles, and good listeners.

Abilities

While we certainly aren't sweaty hardcore raiders, we do aim to impress the server and be a community of like minded, skilled players. We encourage our raiders to constantly improve themselves. 

• Knowledge: It is expected you know how to play your class and are constantly seeking out ways to improve that gameplay experience for yourself and for the benefit of the raid group. More knowledge = more DPS and/or survivability = less stress. That same thought process extends to the various boss fights. Practice makes perfect, so hit the training dummies, tweak your settings, and critique your own mistakes. Our only requirement is that you put effort into your raid team. 

• General Awareness: While we assure that important mechanics will be called out in a fight, we do expect that you are able to keep track of personal mechanics, position smartly, and perform to the best of your abilities. Contribute to the success of the team. A clean UI, weakauras, boss timers, etc will go a long way to helping this.

• Determination:  Progression means wiping. Expect to fail at first, and to keep trying after. Help keep the stress low by coming as prepared as you can. 

Attitude

While raid does require focus and concentration, it is still a community event in the guild. We strive to be a group that enjoys playing with each other as opposed to a task force cobbled together to begrudgingly co-exist for 5 hours a week. Factors that play into how well prog can go include: morale, eliminating elitism, willingness to improve, humility, and personal responsibility.

• Morale: Don’t come to raid prepared to lose; come to raid prepared to learn and progress a fight. If you find yourself dreading raid night, speak to the Raid Lead, Officers, or Guild Leader. We will do our best to alleviate the concern, but it may also come down to needing a break. Understand when is and is not an appropriate time to goof off. The pull timer isn't the time to recant a funny story that happened to you.  Fun is important, but when the Raid Leader asks for your focus, it’s time to be serious.

• Eliminating Elitism: If you’re too good for our guild or our requirements, you’re more than welcome to apply to Complexity, Limit or Method. We will not be finger pointing, belittling, or promoting an attitude that certain people are carrying the raid team. Our raiders build eachother up, not tear them down.

• Willingness to Improve: Our ideal raider simply wants to be better than they were yesterday. Our officer team and members are highly skilled and more than willing to help coach, so reach out if you feel you're behind where you want to be, or offer assistance to those who ask. 

• Personal Responsibility: During raids, if you mess up a mechanic, don’t make excuses for yourself and why you couldn’t do it. Failure, and the subsequent eureka moment of success are simply part of the process, so own your mistakes.. Improve your gear outside of the raid wherever possible.

The goal of the heroic team is to provide a stable group for AOTC and the first few mythic bosses of every tier. While the expectations here aren't as strict as the CE focused team, the expectations of being in any Uranium raid team are very similar. Show up on time and be ready to win - this isn't a carry service.

• Be online on time and able to spend 2.5 hours raiding. The raid team will not wait for you, we will begin at the scheduled time and backups will take your place.

• Let the Raid Leader know if you cannot make the raid ahead of time. Consistently leaving early or random AFKs will reduce the chances you’ll be asked to return. No call/no shows will not be invited later in the night.

• Attendance and teamwork are crucial to progressing a raid tier.

• Raiders should review encounter guides to prepare for bosses.

• Don’t be impaired while we are progressing. Once a raid is on-farm, or while we are doing non-progression raiding, we don’t care, so long as it doesn't negatively affect the social aspect of the group. "On-farm" means we can clear a raid in one raid week.

• Having discipline while we raid is critical! By this we mean: moving through trash efficiently, maintaining only essential communications during boss pulls, and minimizing downtime between pulls.

•  Be receptive to feedback from the Raid Leader

Need > Greed

BOEs will be transferred to the Raid Leader for guild funding. All raiding materials and consumables will be provided with these funds. Refusal to trade a BOE will result in removal from the raid team.
