Forcast - Mal'Ganis Horde 70/80/85 PvE

Jirat

Legend
<Forcast> is recruiting all avid & nostalgic players of the Wotlk era. We also participate in the 70 bracket & 80 bracket and sometime in the future the 85 bracket.

It is critical you read this quote. You will not be considered for a position if you do not obey our gear rules. They are stated below.

Our Goal & Mission - Forcast is dedicating itself to be one of the most successful "purist" twink guilds there is to offer in MoP & hopefully in the future. I've personally been a part of 2 of the same kind for both the BC bracket named revival & one in the more recent evocative. We strive to do this in the 70, 80, and 85 bracket. We intend to be mainly PvE focused but we will certainly not discourage PvP as long as it does not get in the way of PvE.

We are a group from the previous guild champions of ulduar who have tried & tried again and we're looking to give it all we've got this time to propose what we had started back in 2011. That goal was to clear every raid of both 10 & 25m in both hard/heroic mode as well as normal mode while keeping a tight knit community who was both skilled & personable.


We are located on Mal'Ganis Horde - US. We are accepting temporary part time cross-realm members but they must obey all gear rules & are not guranteed a spot no matter the experience they have with us. They only way we gurantee a spot in our raids is if you are in the guild on the server Mal'Ganis. At that point we will do everything we can to make sure we have a spot for you in our raid, but as with every guild keep in mind not every spot is 100% guranteed, but your chances are MUCH much higher. This will not be an issue until the later stages of the guild when we start hitting that boundary between 10 to 25m transition. Before then & afterwards this will mean nothing unless it is farm content.

I know that last one was alot to take in & maybe a bit confusing, but hopefully you understood it all. Now lets get down to what you can expect from us as a whole.


Current Gear Rules

70 Bracket

~ Nothing higher than what can be acquired from karazhan. (Karazhan/MGT/BC 5m Heroics)

80 Bracket

~ Nothing higher than what can be acquired from 10m T7 (Naxx 10m/OS 10m/EoE 10m/Non-icc 5m)

85 Bracket

~ Nothing higher than 359 Craftables/Valor Vendor ~

~ What you can expect from us ~

- A skilled group of both veteran & although not currently new players.
- As we expect from everyone we strive to be the best of our class & role. We encourage min/maxing but we are by no means a Blood legion or DREAM Paragon counterpart. We just expect you to pull what we know what you can pull, not half, not a quarter.
- We try our best to provide professions but the early stages of the guild will not be easy. We will expect everyone to have some form of professions & working on them at least for one character but after we get running on the treadmill we will start providing everyone with flasks/gems. Pots will be on your own unless we see a reason to start handing them out.


~ What we expect from you ~

- We expect you to attend 90% of the raids with minimal downtime during these. We will schedule breaks during these in which you will have time to grab a snack/drink & use the bathroom or handle any other minor disturbances. These will not be times for you to go out & walk your dog, clean your garage or make a lengthy call to customer support.
- We know real life things happen, and we understand. We don't expect you to make every single raid as I stated 90%, but if you happen to have these things occur on a regular basis then we either need to unfortunately demote you to part time or find something that works for the team.
- As noted above we intend to be a group of skilled players, so we expect you to participate like one. We expect you to pull your weight in your role. From healing, to dpsing, to even tanking. Its ok if your spec isn't topping the charts, we just don't want to see a huge % gap between your damage & the next highest up damage unless theres a paticular reason for that (death, mechanic, etc)
- We expect you to know & be ready to use both of your specs. We understand mostly everyone has a preferred spec they want to play mainly. Some nights they don't feel like playing one spec. In order for us to accomadate to that we must be able to do the appopriate switches & make sure its not progression. On progression we prefer everyone to play their main specs unless we run into specific changes in the encounter where it may only require 1 tank, or 3 tanks, or 2 healers or 3 healers. Perhaps your needed to kite something, we would need you to do so & be at least prepared to accept the responsibilities.


Recruitment Needs

These will be updated weekly every Mon/Tues. They will reflect what we currently are able to raid with & not leveling/transfers/cross realm.

70 Bracket

Currently not recruiting


80 Bracket
Currently recruiting all



85 Bracket
Everything is open, no questions asked.



So you want to join? How?


One of which ways is to send a tell to someone in the guild (Forcast - Mal'Ganis - US). We would be more than happy to have you a part of the guild & will help you in which ways possible.

Another way is to add my battletag Vynlann#1183. I normally log on daily but there may be times when I'm not. Keep in mind if I do not add your battletag immediately I will asap. There are rare cases in which I will certainly just decline someones battletag invite.


You can also post here on the thread & I will send you a PM to try & get in contact with you. 99% of the time though its normally easier to get in contact with me as it will allow me to find out what works for you.




Now that you've seen what we're about, will you be able to meet our raid times?

Update As of 10/21/13
Raids will be hosted on friday/saturday/monday evenings. No times are currently set.

~ Our raid times for any brackets are not set in stone. As with any guild I run I want to make sure the people apart of them are able to participate on the same days. For this reason at the start we will not establish set in stone raid times but we will still attempt to raid as soon as possible. In champions of ulduar we cleared 1/4 of naxx & OS on a weekly basis with 3-5 people. Not challenging raids but we make an effort to make sure we can do something every week ~

~ Raid days go for the same ~



If you have any questions or would like to just leave your comment below please do with maturity & respect. We understand our values are not the same as everyone elses but we at least respect everyone elses & would like the same from our fellow twinkers.


Thanks for reading this giant wall of text, now I'm going to go rest my fingers. Have a delightful day/evening.

We are accepting temporary part time cross-realm members but they must obey all gear rules & are not guranteed a spot no matter the experience they have with us.


It was late last night as I was finishing this up & did not notice this. I will continue to proofread this. Thank you for your time.

This will serve as a reserved post in the short future
 
Added recruitment needs into the OP.

They reflect currently of 6/11/2013 & I will continue to update them as needed weekly (every mon/tues). These reflect what we have at the current bracket of what they intend to be. We will not mark off a tank "role" until we see you at your determined bracket. We do not require you to be raid ready but we do require you at the level you intend to be. This does not mean we will not try to hold your spot for you but we will keep it open for all intensive purposes.
 
Updated the 80 bracket recruitment needs under Healing. I had forgotten to add myself as to it. We currently consist of 2 people but the other hasn't leveled his 80/85 toons yet. I'm sure he will & both will be dps by my assumption. (We are considering having his warlock as a tank for the 80 bracket)
 
Hey I'll be coming back to the game in about a week been gone for quite a while. Any idea on raid times yet? I have BiS for resto/boomkin/feral/tank so I can do whatever is needed in 85 bracket.

Woppa @ Daggerspine - Community - World of Warcraft

Let me know if you need me I'll transfer when I reactivate my account.

Edit: Also wanted to add I'd prefer to tank but its w/e and I have 7/8 H DS exp.

We're not 100% sure on times, they'll probably be sometime between fri-mon possibly during day/night. With 3 diff brackets not all will be at the same times.

I hope you did read though that we do things at a purist style. So even if your in BiS gear we'd prefer you to jump down to 346 & 359 (Boes or anything from justice vendor).

Hopefully this still works for you, and yes we do still have a spot as a tank for you. Experience doesn't matter much, what matters is that you are willing to learn & learn fast.

I get the feeling you didn't actually read at least half the OP. Please do so again if you haven't or I will not be willing to accept you. As a last note you do not have to transfer immediately. You are welcome to transfer after you feel like this is the guild for you. We are as I said accepting temporary cross realm raiders until we have no more spots. So this could be for a couple months to just a few days depending on how you want to handle it or if we magically happen to get members within a week.

Still looking to meet our current recruitment needs. If you are interested please add my Battletag, leave a post here, or PM me on the forums. I hop toons so quickly & so much on an off day I'm not going to be reachable by character whisper unfortunately.

As far as raid days go we'll be looking at fri-mon between 2-3 of those days. We may do certain days for certain brackets depending on time need or seperate the time between them.

Will get back to the times as we're still growing.
 
After being gone for a little over a month I'm re-updating this. Left WoW for rift, rift was to grindy, WoW is just hard to leave. 8+ years =/

Anyways, I MAY be starting forcast back up, nothing is guranteed. If your interested please send a request to my battletag. The only way I'll start this back up is if we get interest unfortunately. I'd rather not do a bunch of work for a guild that won't even make it into raiding. As greedy & selfish as it sounds, its how life is.

#realtalk
 
After some LONG consideration & speaking it over with a few people, forcast will be starting back up, but we will be only raiding on weekends.

Current aimed nights are friday/saturday.

Currently we are only looking for people for our future 85 bracket as we're finishing up our 80 bracket this month & next month.


I'm posting this MUCH ahead of time so we can gather members ahead of time. We are still maintaining the goals of using appropriate gear for the raids. (Going into BoT/BWD/Tot4W with 346 gear/crafted blues/epics)

Currently no roles are taken, but will start be soon, so pick something and let me know. My realid will be sent to those who request it via realid.


SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY. We are NOT looking for those who want to 'consider' joining. We are 100% serious this time, hitting the ground running. When we finish wotlk content with our current group we are moving on and moving hard.

Everything in the first post applies with the exception of 70/80 content for recruitment.

If you have any questions, please say so.

Updated the Op to reflect new 80 recruitment status. We were busy deciding on our finishing roster for completing the expansion, but we decided we'd let people flow in then we'll make the final decision.
 
This guild is not alive anymore, there is echoes of the past still alive at the 85 bracket, but our raid team is currently full and neither our 80/85 team uses MoP gear.
