I've played this server since 2012 and always worried about DKP guilds and if I would even be able to win any items if I joined one, but the server is now in a good place where were 3-4 years into velious and people arent cutting each others throat for pixels anymore. I was worried about how long it would take me to win especially good items as I was really only after BiS at the end of the day and figured it would take me much longer. After about 9 months of being in the guild I have won 5 BiS items as well as a bunch of other very cool items for alts as well as neat clickable gear from places such as Veeshans Peak.
I was actually surprised when after my first month I had won a rarer dozekar tear for 1/3 of the total dkp I had gained in 2 months. Was definitely surprised when I won a vulak item that is BiS for about a month worth of DKP of logging in when I could only make it for a raid and responding to the batphones that were in my timeframe of playing. We even had a player who has only been in the guild for a little under 5 months and has won a dain ring, 2 very good vulak items, and an Avatar of War ring. This is definitely a guild in which you will actually see items in your inventory a lot faster than most of the competition in many aspects especially if you're just someone who can only make a few raids here and there per week. Maintaining 20% RA for a month is a lot easier than it sounds especially since earthquakes make the windows nice and close together. Then once you make full member you can bid on items as long as you maintain 10% RA or higher. Its very easy to maintain.
Also people who want to try a bit harder and like competition we have a great community. Weve proven time and time again that we can down mobs with minimal numbers and also we can down mobs with higher numbers if we want because we dont exclude anyone that wants to join and meets raid requirements. If you want to join and you are a decent person and can make raid requirements (which arent hard at all to meet) you can join the fun and theres absolutely no resentment on our side. We are also very humble, we dont boast to our competition when we kill conceded mobs or win multiple spawned mobs in a row. We just play the game to have fun.
In 9 months alone ive seen 15+ green dragon scales (and YES! They have ALL been bidded off to mains or alts) and thats just the times ive logged in for hoshkar or severilous raid, if youre a good warrior and considering joining a high end raiding guild to experience the content you will be greatly appreciated! We have great mentors and are always looking for future mentors!
That also goes for all classes though. We all help each other on any type of epic quest, or quests such as grazicors wraith.
We do all content still with the exception of a few non-priority targets (like talendor and spawned faydedar, we still do quest triggered faydedar though for the druid epics). Get to explore Veeshans Peak and Sleepers Tomb, we are there every week! We regularly kill Lord Nagafen and once in a blue moon, Lady Vox. We still kill trakanon regularly so its easier for newer members and alts to get their veeshans peak keys. We do ring wars once or twice a week and Ive never been to a ring war that we failed, we have so many people with ring 10s its hard to keep track how many exactly.
Its a great guild especially if youre on the fence about joining a hardcore raiding guild like I was for so long, im definitely glad I made the jump. You may not like DKP because you've been in a DKP guild before and its not your pace, or because you just dont like the idea but never actually experienced a DKP guild but you will definitely earn items at a great pace in Aftermath if you decide to join.
Feel free to shoot me a pm on the forums here if you have got any further questione. Ill be happy to answer.
