Hi Grumpywun,
We’re actively recruiting for Shadowlands and looking for players with some prior mythic experience who want to step into a more organized raid environment going into the expansion. To the points you brought up in your post, we do NOT recruit for a bench. We do also have openings for a few DPS. That said, we are on Mal’Ganis rather than Area 52. If that’s not a deal-breaker for the right fit, read on!
We raid a fairly casual schedule at 9-hour per week and try to take advantage of our limited schedule by coming to raid with high level of preparation. As a practical example, raid testing starts tomorrow, and we take testing footage and logs from other guilds to create internal video guides for the heroic encounters. That means we’ll have some fight guides for Castle Nathria posted on our discord this upcoming weekend. Those guides serve as the starting point for our strategy discussions. You can find an example of one from Nyalotha in our guild recruitment post.
In addition to our focus on walking into raid well-prepared, we have a relentless focus on fostering a positive and productive raid culture. I’ve linked out recruitment post so you can read about it. Our post includes example videos of a PTR prep guide from Nyalotha, an example progression pull from a few months ago, and an example farm pull as well.
If you like what you read and watch, drop us an application at the link in the bottom of the guild post
