Recruitment
Mrgrlgrlgrl is world top 1000 Cutting Edge World of Warcraft raiding guild (two nights, three hours each) with an active Mythic+ pushing community.
Our goal is to progress through content at a comfortable pace, and have fun while doing it. We strive to maintain a friendly and laid back atmosphere that encourages growth of all guild members.
Our Mythic raiding times are minimal, from 7:30-10:30PM server time (CTZ), Tuesday and Thursday. Due to our limited window to raid, we expect strong attendance from all core raid members, with exceptions for emergencies or pre-coordinated absences.
We have an optional heroic farm raid Wednesdays from 7:30-10:30PM server time (CTZ).
Loot is not our primary objective, nor is the speed of our progression; we are primarily focused on downing bosses as a team and having fun.
We have an active Mythic+ community including non-raiders. End of patch 8.3 we finished with around 10 players at or above 4k+ score, with nearly 30 players at 3k+. We welcome Mythic+ only players who have a strong score with their own rank for groupfinding.
Required Add-ons
We use Discord for voice in raids as well as to socialize as a guild. We encourage all members to regularly join Discord voice.
Install Twitch Client and then the following add-ons. Add-ons should be updated regularly and always before raids.
Have questions about how to use any add-ons? Ask in guild chat.
- RCLootCouncil (just for loot trading)
- Deadly Boss Mods or BigWigs
- Exorsus Raid Tools
- WeakAuras2
Raider Expectations
We expect the following from our raiders:
- Good attendance (see below)
- Complete a keystone each week for a maximized weekly cache
- Keep your bags stocked with 60+ pots and 20+ Augment Runes (you won't burn through this on a regular raid night, but downtime for restocking is wasted time)
- Know your class, compare logs with better players, join your class Discord and make sure you know what talents and rotation you should do for each boss. Not sure how to read logs? Ask for help!
- Come prepared for each boss, do your research outside of raid
- Stay focused and keep a level head when things aren't going smoothly
- Enjoy the journey, loot is temporary, achievements can be bought, but progging bosses together for fun is what you're here for!
Raid Loot (Personal)
We see loot as nothing more than a tool to perform better as a team. If a piece is only a tiny upgrade for you, we encourage you to put it up for trade so we can progress faster by optimizing loot.
When a loot piece drops that is tradable for you, you can choose to keep or trade via RCLootCouncil.
Two important things:
DO NOT: Shard loot someone else could have used. If you're found to be sharding usable loot, you will be removed from future raids.
DO NOT: Sell loot in any manner. If you're found to be selling, you will be removed from future raids.
The guild will provide vantus runes, flasks, and feasts for raids, we may or may not require BOE's to be given to the guild to pay for these materials (primarily early on in the tier when they have outsized gold value).
Ranks
Raider is our main raiders who have shown commitment through attendance and performance in raids, some of whom have been here since we began Emerald Nightmare progression. These are the core of both our raid, and the guild. Raiders are expected to help their guildmates outside of raids to make Mrgrlgrlgrl the best it can be. Raiders have priority for raid spots over other members.
Trial Raider is our rank for players who have verified they have the gear/logs to attend raids, and a desire to raid regularly as part of the main team, but are not yet core members. Promotion is based on guild integration (actively contributing to the wider guild and raid team), attendance, and performance. Trials may last up to three weeks of raiding, but typically two.
Mythic Keys is our rank for non-raiders who are strong players in Mythic+. This requires a high minimum io score which is adjusted each season. Please enquire if you are interested.
Member is our social rank and is usually comprised of retired raiders and friends of raiders, although we do accept social members from time to time.
Raid Attendance
Our raid nights are Tuesday and Thursday 7:30-10:30pm central (server). Wednesday nights are our optional fun/social night (same times) and can consist of heroic farm raids, mog or older Mythic raids, or other guild activities.
Always watch videos and study up on bosses we will do. We start invites at 7:15pm, and expect everyone food buffed, flasked, and in instance for first pull by 7:30pm. We place all guild events on the in-game calendar.
We expect Raiders to maintain perfect attendance for Tuesday/Thursday. We know real life happens, vacations happen, and it’s important, so if you are tentative or must miss, please post in the #raid-attendance channel in Discord. If you have 2 unexcused absences or excessive excused absences you will be demoted.
Sitting
We raid as a team, which may mean you are swapped in or out during progression, but we ensure raiders who were sat get their kills in following weeks and when bosses are on farm have people sit out who no longer need gear from the boss.
Most commonly, we may ask you to sit on a boss for comp reasons so we can get the boss down faster and continue progression.
If the Raid Lead or Officers don't feel a raider is geared or skilled enough for the current boss (or bosses following) we may ask you to sit. Due to our limited raiding hours it’s important we have some focus on efficiency when reaching the more difficult bosses of progression.
Don’t take it personally, but you likely need to spend more time farming gear on easier tiers or from Mythic+ before you are ready. Perhaps you need to work on your rotation or mechanics a bit more. Try to find another player of your class within the guild for advice on how to improve if you are showing in low percentiles on WarcraftLogs.
Thanks for reading all of this!
