I think one thing no one has mentioned is the fact that the server's raid rules changed at the same time PoSky went live. Let us not forget that. We look forward to some solid competition through this new FTE system. It actually feels like Everquest again instead of some poopsock hybrid version of the game.

It's a somewhat difficult time to answer this question, honestly. I'll do my best to give you a reasonable response.

#1 Inglourious Basterds -- This is the easiest to answer. IB was splitting kills with Dark Ascension during the boss camping period of last spring and most of the summer, but the opening of Plane of Sky made it clear that DA could not keep up.

#2 Divinity -- It gets hard right away here. The answer to this would have been DA even a month ago, but since the opening of Sky, Divinity has had the most success with earlier content while IB has been dominating Sky.

#3 Wrathful Inquisition -- This might be prematurely stated, but WI appears to be making significant efforts to advance. They've had some success with bosses and planar drops and, from the outside, appear to be competent raiders.

#4 Darkwind -- To the best of my knowledge, this is the new guild formed by the raiders of Remedy, Europa and a few more. They seem to be fairly casual and maybe too nice and polite of people to compete with the more ruthless guilds.

#5 Transcendence -- Early in the server, this was IB's main competition. At some point, Transcendence leadership made a decision that having real lives was more important than doing everything first on Project 1999. They still raid, but much more casually.

So where does that leave Dark Ascension? They appear to be completely in limbo. A lot of people have left the guild and there are frequent complaints and rumors of unhappiness with Durison's leadership. I haven't seen them put together a raid force for a week or so. Whether they'll continue to decline or are just reorganizing remains to be seen.
lmao. all accurate but the DA part.... DA was just killing island 4 and almost kill noble djorn (28%) just a week ago. Also, Divinity didn't get any kills untill DA went to sky. How you can say they're not in the top five is laughable dude c'mon. Solid #2. Not to mention the last 2-3 months of getting the majority of plannar gods/dragons.

Im not a raider but from what I see this seems about correct to me. Although the OP does seem to be an DA hater as they should be in the top 4.

I'd say
1 IB
2 Divinity
3 DA
4 WI
5 Trans

If I was going to join a raid guild out of that list it would be Trans.. just cus I would need a casual guild. If I had time to hard core raid IB or Divinity.
Too many members from WI and DA have rubbed me the wrong way. The guilds allows too much slack to its members behavior.

pfft, trans leadership since our casual days have switched...we are generally always caught raiding once a day (either phinny, fear, hate, first 3 isles of sky, or more more rarely firegiants) if something is full pop and we have the people on or the determination to go, we'll go.


but this is purely personal opinion because im in the guild -shrug- id throw us at 4 and thats the way....the cookie crumbles!

sorry, bruce almighty is on ;p

Actually around 9 cyrius. That includes charmed mobs. As you know IB had 15+. Yes we watched.

IB did well,but the mobs on isle 5-7 were not correctly implemented and tested. No one should be able to get past island 4 at this point in the game. The best guilds back in the day did not do it unless it was a zerg.

Please stick with facts.
