The fact of the matter is any CSG guild would take him in after a short trial membership as he is now, with nothing else. There's simply no way he currently meets the standards for A/A, and getting to the point where you can pass the spot check isn't easy. In CSG you'd at least see Naggy and Vox occasionally, because the alliance actively goes after those targets. For A/A you'd have to meet a minimum raid attendance requirement and save up tens of thousands in platinum just to be able to become a recruit.

Europa actually has one member who wanted to see vanilla dragons before leveling past them. He joined us around level 40 and started preparking for Naggy/vox at level 46, before he hit 52 he had killed both Lord Nagafen and Lady Vox.

This is his "Thank you Europa" post on our forums after he passed this landmark:

Sadly, unless you join a big guild and have your character parked in SolB pretty much 100% of the time, you will not ever see Naggy. His life expectancy on the server is probably about 10 minutes from him spawning until his death...including fight time...

The reasons are fairly obvious - he drops sellable loot unlike most dragons.

Blade stoppers - 400k
Cloak of Flames - 80k
Selo's Drums - 20k
Prayers of Life - 15k
Weight reduction bags - 5k-10k
Red Dragon Scales - 7k-10k
Guantlets of Fiery Might - 5k
Orb of Tishan - 3k

They can both go untouched for hours during overnight/Euro daytime hours. Just depends on how flexible your schedule is, how much sleep you're willing to lose, how much of a neckbeard you want to be, etc.

When was the last time naggy or vox was up for hours?

If you just wanted to kill the dragons you don't have to meet any attendance requirement or have any of that gear. At lvl 52 you can't even be voted for full member so you don't need to meet the requirements to make full member.

That aside I just bought all the MR gear and consumables for my newest lvl 60 and didn't even spend 10k on everything. Most of the items are also easily farmable when you are at the level to need them.

Considering Infernus is the only guild allowed to camp their entire raid force directly outside naggy or voxs lair while all other guilds have to start from entrance, they do not stay up long.

Does this mean we could of camped a raid force out on poop mountian for trak and outside naggy/vox lair for all these years? No...Special guilds get special treatment, A/A would get 10-day'd for doing this.

Untrue but you can keep saying, to each there own. Seen plenty of recruits who don't obtain all the items we ask(and most people will help obtain those items), and we only ask them to not go to certain raids where it would obviously play a factor in wiping the raid(that's like 2-3 raids mobs at most?). Should he be higher lvl? Sure probally, but don't spread false lies as to why you can't play in a more hardcore guild "casually" Confirm I have a 9-5 job, with children and I don't wake up for most 3am raids and I have gotten plenty of loot. Don't fall for it

Personally its going great. I am finishing buying a house, entering escrow this week, work 40+ hours a week, and have a family. I also raid maybe a total of 2-3 hours per week right now and still maintain over 20% raid attendance.

The misconception you have about having to be a hardcore neckbeard when in A/A is just that, a misconception. Most likely a result of you making uninformed assumptions based off of what people, in whatever guild you're in, tell you. When you try and extrapolate an emotional response from a message board, clearly you're the one who is upset.
