Team Info

⠀About

Formally named "Main team" is a team with the goal of achieving CE. This does not mean that progression is the only thing on our minds. A team that strives for a good atmosphere, communication and a group of players that don't use others to get a step a head.

⠀Discipline

We expect all our raiders to follow the raider requirements. If at any point people do not follow these, there will be repercussions (think about bench time, or a talk with the RL of officers). Any violations of guild's social rules, depending on the severity may cause an immediate demotion.

⠀Trials

Our typical trial lasts 14 days, or 4 attended raids. During this time we will assess your reliability, attitude and personal growth which are defined by:

🔹you understanding the team's routine and aspirations, not igniting conflicts, and your ability to communicate in respectful and reasonable manner;

🔹you always letting us know about your commitment for the upcoming events, planning your attendance ahead, and always notifying us if you cannot make it;

🔹you showing consistent growth.

A great trial doesn't just mean good parces. A healty and positive attitude and willingness to learn are a big factor in you passing your trial.

During the trial period you have lower priority on raid loot. Which means you are still able to receive loot when raiders don't need it.

⠀Signups and Attendance

Signups

We are using the signup system on our website. You can signup from website's dashboard at any time, also on your phone. The raids are planned 2 weeks ahead so you have plenty of time to let us know about your plans. We have an auto-signup option: all upcoming raids will sign you up as attending, but it does not relieve you from the responsibility to change your signup when you cannot make the raids. Raiders who failed to signup in time will be considered declined and will not count toward upcoming raid's roster.

Vacation

Make sure you decline the raids for when you are away. Attendance won't be affected by vacations.

Emergencies

As a rule of thumb, any attendance changes after the roster is posted is considered an emergency. An emergency could happen at any time and are more important than the game. If they do happen often and on a regular basis we will have to talk about your current situation.

If you need to change your attendance after rosters were posted, please also make sure to notify us via dedicated #absence-and-attendance-mt discord channel, because without your notification we may not be able to notice the editing, and will not be able to adjust our plans.

⠀Loot

No loot drama

The new system we have been working on should prevent loot drama. [To be announced]

What to roll

Bis: if you will not replace this item other than with higher track.

Major: This item will only be replaced with Bis

Minor: Will be replaced with anything better

Offspec, Transmog - self explanatory

BoE

When a BoE is looted there are two options that follow. Either it is sold on the AH and the person who looted it gets 50% whilst the bank gets the other 50%. Or it is sold to a team member on a discount, where the same split (50/50) will happen. ⠀⠀

⠀Consumables and repairs

The team will provide feasts, flask and potion cauldrons so long our crafters can produce them and the guild bank can afford them. In all other cases all raiders should use their own consumables.

Repairs are not covered by guild bank. ⠀

⠀Raid times

20.00 ST is the time when raid starts, and when we should have everyone inside the instance, buffed and prepared to pull the boss. Invites will start ~19.45-19.50 ST. The raids last until 23.00 ST. Last pulls of the night may overlap the exact time stamp and raids may extend a few minutes. Everyone is expected to stay until the raid is called by raid leader.

Goals and Aspirations

CE, thats it. Keep in mind that WoW is a game. Don't lose your mind over it. We are a team working to goal. Not a corporate company that is trying to rise to the top by stepping on people.

Raider Requirements and Expectations

⠀Signups

🔹All raiders are required to sign up for all of the upcoming week's raids.
🔹In case you don’t know whether you will be able to attend raid, you need to signup as tentative with a note attached to your signup.

🔹If your status changes after the roster was published, let us know through the #absence-and-attendance-mt discord channel

⠀Consumables

Each raider should have enough consumables to last them through the entire raid, regardless of whether cauldrons and feasts are being provided. Pots may not be needed on every pull, but you should have enough to last you through the whole raid. The raid leader will let you know when they will be needed.

For more efficient raid management, and your personal and overall raid performance we expect you to have following addons installed:

🔹RCLootCouncil - for loot distribution
🔹Method raid tools - for dynamic raid notes

🔹Buff Reminders or similar - for quick raid rebuff (TBD) ⠀⠀

⠀Attendance

🔹When benched you should be in reach during the entire raid.
🔹You are expected not to go random AFK.
🔹The raid has at least one break, but if you need to use the bathroom or get a drink. Don't ask just go.

🔹You are expected to stay for the whole length of the raid until it is called.

⠀Communication

🔹During the raid you should be present in the discord raid channel, and be able to clearly hear the raid leaders.
🔹If you are not using push-to-talk, make sure to configure your voice activation settings to not produce background noise in the voice channel.
🔹You should be able to respond to raid leaders via voice communication.
🔹Screw around as much as you want between breaks, but pull time is focus time.
🔹You should keep comms clear during fights, and only communicate the information related to your own responsibilities.
🔹The callouts should be left to raid leaders and assisting officers to maintain clear communication during the pulls.
🔹Raider's discord name must include their main character's name or at least reminiscent of it. Raid leader needs to know how to reach out to you for immediate response. ⠀⠀

⠀Benching

🔹You may be asked to sit out for one attempt, more attempts or the rest of the raid for different 🔹reasons, including raid composition, so remain calm.
🔹While benched, you are expected to still be reachable. Stay online in the game, or on an alt known to raid leaders or/and in discord or BattleNet reach.

🔹You are expected to be familiar with left and right directions.
