Bad Omen is currently recruiting :
* 1 Shadow Priest
* 1 Resto Shaman
* 1 Holy (holy, not disc mainly) Priest
* 1 Rogue
* 1 holy paladin
* 1 resto druid
Note that we are looking for 1-2 players total and not all of the above.
About the Guild :
Bad Omen was created during the first days of vanilla WoW. While there was obviously some fluctuation, the same raid leaders are running the guild since Naxxramas on level 60. With a light raiding schedule in contrast to other top guilds, we have been constantly doing reasonably well and cleared all content before any major nerfs. We are as stable as it gets. There were no raiding breaks or merges since vanilla, we kept going and we don't plan on stopping in the near future.
Top 30 EU Naxxramas clear on lvl 60 (back then the progress was tracked in the official wow raiding forum and thus was EU wise, I guess chances are that was top 60 in the world, everything else is always in the world and not something like european english speaking horde or whatever)
Top 10 on Al'ar (the original version), Lady Vashj and Kael'Thas
Top 10 on Illidan
Top 40 throughout Sunwell including M'uru and Kil'jaeden
Wotlk-Progress:
Top 50-100 on most Ulduar hard modes, including:
Firefighter defeated as one of less then 50 guilds before the massive nerf
Top 70 on Alone in the Darkness
Trial of the Grand Crusader cleared world 30th
Tribute to Insanity (few too many weeks later)
All meta achievements, all realm first titles
In Icecrown Citadel we killed everything as soon as it was avaible so far with multiple raids (alts, casuals filling slots).
What we expect from applicants:
We are raiding five days per week on progress, Friday and Saturday being the off-days. Our raids start at 7 pm server time (central european) and end around 11-12 pm. If you cannot keep up with that for a couple of weeks when new content is released, do not bother applying.
Having the correct raiding professions, pots and farming certain special gear (resistance, block gear for anub off tanking and whatever Blizzard might come up in the future) is obviously another requirement.
To sum it up, we expect a high level of dedication from everyone in the guild. We won't be seen raiding at crazy times, but when we raid, we expect people to be prepared and know what they are doing. Standing in void zones only gets everyone else frustrated and we are doing his as our hobby, for fun. People that turn that fun into misery won't be around for long.
Constant complaining/whining is another thing no one wants to hear, especially about the good old topic of benching. We are aiming to have a pool of 35 raiders. That means in case everyone shows up, some will have to sit out. If you look for a 25 player guild with everyone guaranteeing 100% attendance, you are looking in the wrong place. Our average age is 25, lots of people work etc and stuff comes up. However we do NOT recruit for the bench. Raid slots are rotated evenly between all people we find good enough, which means passing the trial. During the trial time you will obviously raid a lot as otherwise we can hardly evaluate your performance. Once you passed the trial, you have the same right to raid as everyone else in the guild, no matter how long they have been around.
You should have done at least 'A Tribute to Mad Skills' in TotGC 10 men, Twin Valkyrs in TotGC 25 and killed six bosses in Icecrown Citadel 10 men. There can be exceptions, but if you have not progressed that far, you will have a tough time convincing us that you care about progress raiding as much as we do.
Dentarg is a medium/low populated english speaking realm with a good horde population and very little alliance.
