“Everlasting Midnight” Guild

Everlasting Midnight

Who we are:

Everlasting Midnight was founded in late Wrath out of a desire to pull good people out of a rampant PuG scene that was generally immature, antagonistic, negative, and at best apathetic, and conquer raids in a more friendly setting. At the end of Wrath, we had successfully cleared all 10-man normal content including all Ulduar hard modes and many ICC ones. We had a lot of fun doing it.

This expansion we cleared all normal modes and accomplished 5/13 heroic modes before 4.2. We look forward to pushing even harder in Firelands.


Recruitment:

We are currently seeking a few to join our 10-man raids. People with a competitive desire and a longing for a friendly atmosphere will find a great fit in Everlasting Midnight. Ideally, we’re seeking people who like intramural sports – something you care enough about to take seriously, but still enjoy playing for the sake of playing.

Raid times
Thursday 8-11pm EST
Sunday 8-11pm EST
Monday 8-11pm EST

Our expectations:

All roles
You research the encounters BEFORE the raid. (You know the address for tankspot, wowpedia, wowhead, etc.)
You research your class BEFORE the raid. (You’re not in trade asking what spells to use. You’ve been to Elitist Jerks and read up on your class).
You are someone who “thinks on his or her feet”.
You know how and when to use abilities outside of your specialty (DPS who can throw a heal, mages who know what remove curse/spell steal is, paladins who can throw hand of protection, etc.).
You are able to communicate with the raid.
You don’t cheap out on enchants/gems. (I don’t care if it’s only heroic gear. It’s all you’ve got.)
You like playing the game on more than just raid days. (You don’t have to be on 24/7, but we’re looking to see you more than once every couple days).


Tanks
You have 30k+ TPS threat generation on single target fights (i.e. it’s nigh impossible for a dps to pull threat from you).
You know when to use your defensive cool downs.
You give no excuses about your class when asked to AoE tank. You do it and succeed.
You know exactly where to position the boss for the raid while accommodating for any encounter mechanics.
You can use interrupts without it affecting your tanking ability.


DPS
You instinctively interrupt spells (if applicable).
You value defeating the encounter more than topping your recount meter. (i.e. you’re not a tunnel visioning clown.)
You know how to use a defensive cool down to save yourself and save healer mana.
You regularly put out 18k+ dps.


Healers
You know exactly what spell to use for every occasion (spike tank damage, small raid damage, big raid damage, etc).
You have learned how to manage your mana for this expansion (i.e. you’re not proud of overhealing.
You instinctively remove debuffs as soon as they’re applied.
You can overcome the mechanics of the encounters without it noticeably affecting your healing output.
You use a UI that looks nothing like the default WoW UI.

Specific Needs:
DPS

If you’re impatient, elitist, and/or just generally hard to get along with – we do not want you. In the end we want a happy guild that achieves a lot, not a miserable guild that achieves slightly more.
