<Ex Scientia Victoria> US raiding guild
Posted: 05 Jul 2013 00:46
Hello Truewow,
Ex Scientia Victoria
is a premier horde guild aimed at top quality raiding!
Guild Info
Our guild name translates: "From Knowledge, Victory." We believe that the most powerful tool in the game is knowledge, be it raid tactics or class mechanics. To contribute to this guild, you should learn your class well and be open to suggestions from others that could improve your game.
We coded a custom Addon to automatically explain tactics clearly before a boss fight. Can your guild do that?
We use a DKP loot system for fairness (don't worry, you don't have to download any addons), which rewards you for doing more raids with the guild. Essentially every time a boss is killed, you earn DKP points. You can use these points to bid on loot, so more points let you bid higher. We are not the type of raiding guild that simply farms ICC. We run all raids, including Naxx and Ulduar on up in order to gear our fresh 80s and solidify our raiding team. Running more raids helps us test our abilities to execute tactics and work together.
We are mostly members of the United States, so raids are between 5pm-10pm EST. That's 11pm-4am server time. Only English is to be spoken in the guild chat. Our guild bank has the maximum 6 tabs and has a structured deposit/withdraw system. We also have a guild lottery every week for some extra fun, buy as many tickets as you want to increase the jackpot and on Fridays one ticket will be drawn to take it all!
We have a guild website at: http://www.guildportal.com/Guild.aspx?G ... ID=4171442
However it's our belief that our guild members should be able to fully participate in the guild without needing to check a website daily. To that end, all important information on the website will also be reflected in-game, such as a raid schedule. The website will only serve as additional functionality like class discussions, professions needed, and videos of our awesome raids.
Ranks
Guild Master
Class Master: same privileges as an Officer, but you know your class exceptionally well and can guide others
Officer: for Raiders who have proven their dedication to the guild and are skilled in leadership
Raider: for members who consistently demonstrate skill in a raid environment
Member: rank is achieved after hitting 80
Initiate: sub-80 members
Invitee: During your first few days after joining, once we get to know you, you'll receive your proper rank
Pickle Smooch: when you need a timeout, you cannot speak in guild chat
Who we're recruiting
Death Knights (Currently Not Recruiting)

Mages (Fire/Frostfire)

Paladins (Holy/Retribution)

What you can expect from us: Weekly, scheduled, organized raids. Help in gearing up. Friendly and knowledgeable conversation.
What you should NOT expect from us: Powerlevel your alts through instances. Organized PVP. Nudey pics.
What we expect from you: Know your class or be willing to learn it. Come to raids with your A-game ready (members are expected to use Deadly Boss Mods and RaidCall). And have fun in our guild!
Note that you do NOT need to be level 80 to join. While the focus of the guild is end-game raiding, we are happy to help members level up whenever we aren't busy.
If you're interested in joining, PM me with your character's name or find an officer in-game: Luminaughty, Reginald, Joules, Jormangr, Fromage
