Newbie guild raid questions

[Zakharov]

Just found the server a couple weeks ago & started with a remake of my wizard from back in the day, having a great time.

I started wondering though how fun raiding is going to actually be end game.

On live I never had the time or inclination to join the top raid guilds so I always sought out the ‘2nd’ or ‘3rd’ tier raid guilds, the casual / fun ones. Much more enjoyable, but that meant we usually were raiding an expansion or so behind. This was fine though since the top guilds had moved on by then so we always had something to do.

My concern now is what happens when the progression ends at velious? It may take me some time after velious to be ready to raid in velious but since that’s the end, there could be nothing left for a casual raider.

Any thoughts on how this will pan out? Will the top guilds farm everything so much they all get fully decked out & bored? Will they keep everything perma killed no matter how decked out they get? Will there be any point to attempting velious boss quest turn ins since the bosses will almost certainly be killed the moment they spawn?

I realize this is years away but since we have a definitive end point I just have to wonder what happens when everyone gets to the very end?


As a side note, any suggestions for a good casual / fun raid guild to seek out here?
