Guild Name: The Seven Serpents
Faction: Alliance
Website: www . thesevenserpents . com
Looking for: Members for our raiding team and anyone else who would suit our guild.
About us
The Seven Serpents is a project-based guild, which means we seek to create content for one another. We propose ideas for projects and events that the guild should participate in and support each other in making these things happen (this could be raiding, PvP, alt nights, RP, etc). Anyone in the guild can initiate a project for everyone to be involved in and we actively encourage members to try out new ideas. Our unique system has proven to be a real success since the guild was founded almost five years ago and we would love to hear new ideas from potential recruits.
Raiding
One of our main priorities is to continue making progress with raiding during Battle for Azeroth. We’ve recently achieved Ahead of the Curve in Eternal Palace and aim to do so again in the Ny’alotha.
While we are a casual guild that ensures raiding does not feel like a full-time job, we still want to progress as a team and will expect a certain level of effort from all participants. Tactics for each encounter will be explained, but it’s always worthwhile to have a basic understanding of the mechanics of each fight prior to the raid. You should be keen to learn to play your chosen class and spec well, even if we do not expect perfection. If you need advice on your class, others in the guild will be happy to give you pointers. We also need you to be able to listen on Discord (talking is optional but encouraged!).
As part of your participation in the project, your raiding flasks, food, potions, gems and enchants will be provided for you. This saves everyone a lot of gold for raid materials we’d otherwise buy on the auction house ourselves! To sustain this, we do rely on donations from our members as often as they have the resources to spare.
Our raid times are Sundays and Tuesdays, 9.15pm-11.15pm (Server time, 8.15pm-10.15pm UK time).
Classes we would particularly like for raiding
We will consider applicants from all classes and specs. However, spaces for healers and tanks are limited so we cannot guarantee these positions. However, there will still be opportunities to play any spec you want during other events or take up a healer or tank position in raids should a space be available.
Other projects and events
As mentioned above, we are a project-based guild that does a variety of things in game in addition to raiding. Here are some of the things we have done so far:
• Mythic Madness: We all gather up once a week and try to tackle the highest keystones we can. This is a great opportunity to improve your gear for the raids or to try out other classes in challenging content. Come along and see how far you can push yourself!
• Heroes of the Storm / Overwatch / Diablo: We regular host events inviting our members to join together for some friendly rounds of other Blizzard games. We also branch out occasionally to play other games together.
• Achievement Runs / Transmog Trails: Lots of our members are devoted achievement hunters, so you’ll often find events to go back and run older content to get any achievements that may have been missed. We’ll also go back and clear things for new transmogs and hold transmog competitions afterwards.
If you have any other ideas for events, feel free to specify them when you make your application! The more creative the better!
What we expect from you
• To fully appreciate and accept the concept and rules of the guild.
• To be kind, considerate, and actively participate in the projects and events in our guild.
• To be respectful of the efforts that others put in to ensure we all have a great time in game. This means participating in some of the events we run, although we do not expect people to participate in all of them! RL > WoW.
• For raiders: to give your best every raid night, listen to the raid leader’s instruction, and to continue improving as a member of the raid team.
What you can expect from us
• A close community of people who form genuine friendships, and who always extend the warmest of welcomes to new people.
• A well-organised project and event system that means you can explore multiple facets of the game.
• A place where you can demonstrate your creativity and unique ideas.
• Lots of humour.
