“Affinity” Guild

Our History & Philosophy
We are an active, friendly, community-driven guild with focus on PVE content, catering to a wide spectrum of players. Founded in October of 2016 as 'The Golden Turtle Cult' by a group of old friends who have played WoW since TBC, the guild was originally made with no serious expectations but quickly grew into a thriving community of players and we rebranded as 'Affinity' in February of 2017.

We run weekly open raids where any member of required ilvl can sign up on calendar and we run a more serious, organised progress team where we expect quality and commitment to ensure constant progress.

Progress Raiding
Schedule
Tuesday 20:30-23:30
Thursday 20:30-23:30

While it is a light two-day schedule we take raiding seriously and expect steady progression from quality, active players. All progress raiders are expected to remain up to date with their class/spec and complete all content outside of raiding which is relevant to their performance.

Log analysis is used to track performance. That said we focus on team comraderie and prefer not to bench committed players. Only when progress slows will be begin to look at underperforming players and we will try to help them improve as much as possible before looking to the bench.

We are proud of our raiding team, having progressed quickly and has yet to go a week without kill progress since starting around Christmas of 2016.

Recruitment
We are always accepting social players who are looking for an active community in which they can find players to experience casual raid and small-group content. All members can be considered for progress team if they are interested in that. We analyze performance logs for all open raids to determine who may be suitable.

Those who join the guild specifically for progress team membership undergo a trial period of varying length in which they participate in progress raids with a lowered loot priority.
