“RUIN” Guild

What we want from you:

1.Total devotion to the guild and raiding.

2.Raid times are roughly 19:30 till 23:30 from Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. During periods of heavy progression raid times are subject to change if this provides a tangible benefit.

3.General whining is not tolerated at all. If your main focus is loot or you can’t handle sitting out of raids sometimes, then this is not the right guild for you. Sometimes certain compositions will be better and you simply won’t get a spot. We expect you to play for the guild and its progress above all else.

4.Complete knowledge of your class, how to gear and spec it. This means being able to adapt to new situations and goes beyond just reading theorycrafting and knowing what the right gems are. It's something that we expect people to have put a lot of thought into so their character can be the best it can be.

5.Top-notch raid performance goes without saying. This means you must be experienced in high-end raid content and able to play your class to perfection. People who repeatedly die to the same mistakes and perform sub-par compared to the rest of the guild will not last very long.

6.Have a competitive nature both on a guild vs. guild level and an internal level. You will have to earn your raid spot and show that you are the best person for the job. You must be confident in what you are doing and want to show that you can do it better than anyone else.

7.Generally have a friendly attitude towards your guild mates. The flipside of this is that you must be able to take a certain level of abuse and jokes from your peers. If you can't take a few jokes at your expense this might not be the place for you.

8.You must be able to sometimes take extremely harsh criticism and improve from it. You will make mistakes, everyone does. It's important that you will learn from them, not make them again and respect the criticism you take.

9.You must be fluent in English, both written and spoken. You must also have a microphone and Ventrilo and not be afraid to use it when required.

10.Be over 18 years of age, there have been some exceptions to this, but don't even consider it if you are under 17.

What you get from us:

1.A guild with a highly competitive nature that has many players who have been doing end-game raiding for almost 5 years.

2.Our main goal is progression and to always remain as competitive as we can be.

3.We have a very strong community within the guild. A friendly but jokey atmosphere that is great fun to be part of once you get used to it.

We decide all loot with a loot council system along with a EPGP-based priority list. There is no DKP and we have no attendance system since 100% attendance is expected of everyone. You will get great gear playing in this guild just by default, it should not be your primary focus. We take the point of view that loot is a tool -not a reward- and therefore it is given out according to how it best benefits the guild. This means factors such as who gets the biggest upgrade, what class an item is the best for, player performance, how many top-end hardmode items people have looted and what we need to kill the next boss.


We are looking to expand our roster with just great, (semi-)hardcore players more than anything else. Do not be put off from applying because you feel we have a certain amount of a specific class. Spots are performance based and if you can show that you are better, then every spot is there for the taking.

Please include the following information in all applications:

1.Your character name.

2.Where you are from / live.

3.Your age.

4.A link to your armory <- Do not forget this at all costs, apps without this will be instantly thrown away.

5.Links to any WWS/World of Logs/WowMeterOnline etc. that you have for yourself.

6.A Screenshot of your user interface, ideally in a raid environment.

7.An explanation of how you approach your char and what you feel is important to focus on.

8.A history of your experience and previous guilds.

9.Any references you wish to cite.

10.Connection/Computer info, a stable computer and connection are absolutely essential so do not apply without both of these things.


Applications should be e-mailed to [email protected]. This is a mailbox that all Officers and Class Leaders have access to and your apps absolutely will be read. Obviously since faction changing is now available we can accept all European applicants from any realm or faction. As a side note, all applications will be kept private, in case you wish to apply without risking your current guild position.


Finally one important aspect about these applications. Do not login and start spamming people ingame this will only annoy them and make your recruitment less likely. If you have not heard anything back on your e-mail within 1 week, you can assume that your application has been denied. I cannot stress this enough about your applications, people who harass will instantly get their applications thrown away.
