It has been A long time sine I have had the time to post anything new on this web site. A lot has happen in that time. About half our Guild Leader left to another guild. It is their business why they left. We have had a lot of people leave with them or because they think we can no longer doing anything without them.
But we are still here. We are back in KZ and although we had a rough start last Thursday I saw a lot of promise in that group. I would like to take the credit for that but I had very little to do with it. Most of the work that was done to keep this guild going was done by Gankmyself. He spent hours of his time that he could have spent playing the game just siting in Shat talking to people. He picked up most of our new members doing this. So next time you see him on thank him for all the work he has put into getting this guild back on it's feet.
I am going to update the pic page today. I will be removing the old members that left and add both Justin and Gank's pic. I would like to have a lot more peoples pic's on the site. It's nice to have a face to put to the voice.
4/25 Forum update!
I just added class forums to our guild forum. Use them to help each other learn more about how you raid. Each class forum will have a topic in time showing what every class needs to bring to a raid. I have already posted what preist need and expect to see them have the mats and working on the gear by next raid.
Star's and Justin's pics added today! Go take a look and plz send me more pics!!!!!
Kills List
I added a page to the web site listing the number of kills for each boss. It can also be used has our own progression guide.
Attumen the Huntsman & Midnight DOWN!
On 4/15 we managed to down Attumen for the first time. We had a late start and needed to pick up 2 pugs. Our first run in and boss pull was not all that good. The mob pulls took to long then we wiped with out getting to second phase. But our second run in was fast even with an almost wipe. After the Attumen went down with out a hitch.
After that we worked our way to Moroes. We wiped once learning the pulls to Moroes. But it was fairly easy to get to him. We only had time to try one attemped on Moroes after getting to him. For a first attemped it went rather well. We did manage to get the adds CC and start DPS on Moroes so not to bad. We just need to get use to putting HOTs on the player hit with garrote.
Can't wait for the next raid this one was so much fun!!
Guild overview
*EDIT* Loot Classes changed.
Class D is now ALT and Non-Raid. Ether one getting gear helps the guild about the same. Witch is almost not at all.
Class C is now New member. They should not get gear before and main raider. But they should be joining the guild to raid. So the gear they get will be more help then a alt or non-raider.
Class B is now Member and Officer. Our Core raiding group. Getting this group gear is are main focus.
Class A is now Guild Leader. Class A can only be used has a trump card for ties and rare items. Items like mounts, legandary items, items like eye of divinity if thier are any. Itmes that have not droped in a long time may be added to this list. If you are going for 8/8 or 5/5 you will also be considered Class A for that item.
This was the topic we talked about the most last night. Should GL get loot over raiders? We do equal work on raids so why should they get loot first. Well I argued that we should not get it over normal members. But thinking about it more thats not true. The GL are the people doing most of the out of raid work. The work others would rather not be bothered with. Not saying that some would not help when asked. But we do the recruiting, managment, raid leading, web building, pay for vent, ETC. I was also thinking about who is leading this guild. Would they just taking everything if we set them a class above others for loot. I know if I didn't add what I did to the class note they would still evenly pass out most loot. It's more the rare items that I worrie about going to just anyone*. Legandary items mark a guild has a true raiding guild. Seeing the mounts make people look at a guild name. They know that guild can acomplish somthing. I feel that we want that stuff first going to the people that will not leave the guild*. Now I know this will be a big topic tonight. That is why I posted it here. So everyone can read this and think about it.
*no one comes to mind when I say just anyone. But we have had somone get a lot of loot over a GL then leave the guild taking people with that person. We had no clue that person would do this. But bit once twice shy.
Erebus is based on 25 man casual raiding. That means we only want enough people to run 25 man raids about 3 times a week. Now that dose not mean 100 members and hopefully we will have 25 on for a raid. Been their done that and never going back. So to explain how this is going to work I will go over are guild rankings first. Starting from lowest to highest.
alt: (Loot Class D) I don't care if I am on my 70 priest or my 12 lock I want to talk to the same people. My guild are my friends. So right now we have no limit on alts in the guild. But alts are not allowed on raids has a rule. Yes a time will come when all are druid stuff is getting DEed. Then we may talk alts to pick that stuff up. It's something we will talk about later. But right now no alts on raid unless we need a set class. Then we will ask you.
None Raid: (Loot Class D) This level is for people in the guild that are not counted has are active raiders. If you are not at 60% of are raids you are not an active raider. That is 2 raids out of the 3 a week. This is an average of 60%. No I will not smite you down for not playing for a week. This rank is also for your GF, RL friends, and just people we like.
New Raider: (Loot Class C) You will be this rank till we feel you are a member of the guild. When we think you want to be here and we want you here both then you will rank up.
Raiders: (Loot Class B) These are the raiders of the guild. Short and simple.
Raid Officers: (Loot Class B) This rank is open at the moment. I know 2 people have it. But they are really old members.
Raid Leaders: (Loot Class A) The leaders of the guild. No one has more power then the other. If you don't like something one did then talk to another. We will talk about your problem and can vote to over turn what one did.
Guild Bank: We had to have some one make the guild. None of the guild leaders could or they would be a rank over the rest.
Erebus will have a core of 45 Guild leaders, Officers, and Members. They are a group of 5 of each class that show up to 60% of are raids. This number may be cut down if we find we need less of a set class or classes. This keeps are loot to a small group of people.
When making a 25 man raid guild rank means a lot. GL get invites first. We didn't make the guild to site on the side and watch. Has it stands now Members and Officers get invites next based on class. Class balance is now more important then ever from what I understand. Then New Members of class we need will get an invite. Last we will invite None raid that want to come if we need that class.
Loot Classes have not yet been talked about by the guild leaders. I just throw this in. So it is not set in stone. But let us know how you feel about it.
Loot Classes are just a simple way of showing who gets what over who. Class A will get loot before a Class B and so on. We will most likely use DKP in a 25 man raid. So I will point out this now. A Class A with less DKP then a Class B will still get the item. This is to stop a non raid from taking an item for a raider because that raider just got an item.
Exp: I just got an epic item. My T4 token drops. The only other Priest that needs it is a none raid. He has 10 DKP that he saved up from the few runs he has been on in the last 6 months. I have 0 now. Who should get it??
Loot Classes stop that from ever being a question.
All in all we have 2 guild in one. GL, Officers, and Members are the Hardcore raiding guild. Alts, None Raid, and New Members are more the casual guild. This allows the raiders to still be in the same guild has your friends and family. But still get to raid and see end game.
Short Guild History
The guild started with the guild Scavangers. I being Mockmaw started that guild about 2 months into the start of this server. Myself and Husk are the only founding members left. Everyone that you see has a guild leader except Khurg was in scavengers.
Scavengers was never meant to be a raiding guild. It was just a fun place to level. But has you hit 60 and get bored you start wanting to raid. So we gave it a try. But we had a rep has a noob guild so had a hard time finding raiders. The only way we could start raiding was to make a new guild. That was the Start of Harbingers.
Harbingers was going rather well. But it was still hard to get a full 40 man raid in a casual raiding guild. We could only field about 30 people. So we teamed up with Darkenbane to run MC. With Khurg has raid leader we down Luci second attempted. Mag, Geh, and Garr all first attemped. We got stuck on baron due to them not paying attention. But we got him down and he was easy after that. Would have been easy after that but DB decided they could run solo. They decided this after 2 of are members told them they could bring a large group of are players with them over to DB.
So we were left with about 1/2 of our guild at this point. That was only 3 months till BC. If they didn't fuck it up we would be almost to nef if not at him at that point. But now we decided we did not have the time to rebuild. So we went are own ways. Planing to rebuild and level to 70 again in a new guild. With the release of the burning Crusade Erebus was born.
I know a lot of you want to know why we have so may guild leaders. Well has you can probably see I still to most of the GL work. But we have had a lot of people leave the guild before because I am an ass. Yes I can get pissed and be an ASS! People say I don't listen or everything has to be my way. Well now if you don't like me talk to one of the other GL. They have the same power in this guild has I do. If you don't like what I did at some point talk to Husk, hank , Justin, or Khurg. They will try and help fix your problem. They will come talk to me for you if you think I will just argue at you.
