PoF without joining big guild?

[Rastignac]

I play in obsessive bursts every few months. I have a level 39 Shaman right now. I've always liked sticking with my homies or wandering solo, engaging in PvP but avoiding long-term beef. My ultimate goal on this server is to finally fight Cazic Thule and explore the Plane of Fear. I've never seen that magic text "it begins to rain blood"

anyway, is it possible to fulfill this dream, when the time comes, without joining Azrael or another of the big guilds? Nothing personal I just don't want to be part of the politics.

I have few friends my own level. Is it possible to latch onto a PoF raid? Especially once most other people will be focused on Velious in August?

rambling question done. cheers.
