Returning Alliance player looking for guild!

Hello! I used to have 4 toons, but I stopped playing WoW about 8 years ago. I've just returned, but I was not able to recover my characters, so I've started a new human destruction warlock now level 17, named Alexanian.

I'm seeking a casual smallish intimate guild whose members enjoying partying for questing, dungeons, and raids (once I'm up there!). I'm not really interested in realm firsts and other things which entail pressure on me haha.

I'm very friendly and inherently helpful; if somebody wants to party and I can A. help and B. aren't already committed to a run, I'm generally happy to join in. I try to be charming, respectful, and help the guild however I can, I'm a team player.

I have a lot of experience with WoW and other MMOs including Tera, Final Fantasy XIV, Aion, and have done a lot of raiding in both DPS and healer roles, but I'm not a hardcore raider. Just to disclose about that, I'm a bit of a slow learner in terms of complex boss mechanics, so I'm not the best candidate for your bleeding-edge progression team lol.

Nice to have are guildies who when they're not discussing WoW have a variety of topics available, I'm kind of intellectual with wide-ranging interests including math, physics and other scientific areas, bridge (card game), science-fiction & fantasy books (!!), Aikido (I hold a sandan, 3rd degree black belt), board games, just to give you an idea. I can use voice when appropriate. I do have a strong lisp (difficulty pronouncing the "s" and "z" sounds but I'm perfectly understandable lol). I'm a gay male living in San Francisco, CA, but despite being gay I've had a ton of fun in guilds with many women or run by women.

Not so nice are loud people who constantly brag about their cars, how drunk they were last night, their sexual conquests, or who exhibit racism, sexism, or homophobia. Not to sound negative, but just to disclose so you know what turns me off haha!

If the above sounds attractive to you, please reply. We could do a test dungeon run if you like... I'm ready for Deadmines!!! I hope to hear from you soon. - Alexanian
Hello Again! I have been able to recover my old characters :

Druid: 90

Mage: 90

Warlock: 86

Priest: 87

These characters are on another server, but I will bring them over.
Hello!

If you're open to a server transfer then we would definitely be interested in having you join us and based on your post I think our guild could be a good fit for you! We are a newer guild looking to recruit all for a more casual, social, and semi-hardcore progression focused guild. We are currently recruiting for our core raiding team but are more than happy to recruit players of all play styles. I've included a quick guild summary below for your convenience. Add my btag if you're interested in chatting further. :)
_________________________________________________________________________

<Estratovus> is a newer Alliance guild on Sargeras (US) that is currently looking to recruit for our raiding core. We run in a more semi-hardcore/casual progression focused environment. Even though we play on the more "casual" basis we do play to succeed and our goal is to push relevant content as it becomes available, including Heroic/Mythic.

Guild Highlights:
• Semi-Hardcore Raiding – we may not push competitively for top 100 or server firsts but we do aim to push relevant content, including Mythic
• Alt-Raiding, Dungeons/M+, PvP, World PvP, Xmog Runs, Leveling/Social
• Adult/mature guild (21+) - most of us are working adults and we get life happens
• A more casual, friendly, professional (no yelling at each other), and welcoming environment
• Returning or new player(s) friendly
• Inclusive "All Are Welcome" Policy - LGBTQ+ friendly
• Competent raiders and players to push M+ with – although we are welcoming to everyone, we do expect baseline capabilities to include someone in our core raiding team. Rest assured we login to DOWN bosses even as a more casual guild.

Recruitment Needs:
As a newer guild we are currently in the process of building our raiding core with the intention of hitting the ground running and getting as much cleared before patch 8.1 as we are able to. With that said we do currently have some flexibility if you are interested in switching mains or if you have friends that may be interested in also joining you.

A (*) next to a class or role means we currently have a high recruitment need.

Thank you for your consideration and have a great day!
Thank you, Kotipelto! I will check it out. Obviously, since my highest toon is 90, it will be a while before I'm raid ready (and I'm not a power leveler, I like to enjoy the trip!). At the moment I'm working on my Warlock the most.

I'm not available Wed nite (I do my martial art M/W/F eves), and Sun eve is often taken up socially, but since I wouldn't be raiding immediately anyway that shouldn't be a problem. Likely I would be on a second team that might have different raid times (Tue/Thu/Sat eves would be great for example -- for me anyway!)

I don't have a character on Sargeras yet. Thanks again for replying!
