“Defile” Guild

- MYTHIC RAIDING SPOT OPEN - 4/09/15
- Mythic recruitment spots are currently open for ONE player, but we are always willing to look at exceptional players. If you are interested in trialing or benching for us, or just joining our guild in general, please reach out to an officer in the guild (info at bottom of post), or feel free to apply on our website:

Server: US-Thrall
Raid: Mythic (20man)
Progression: Currently 10/10H BRF
Loot rules: Normal runs ML: MS>OS, Heroic/Mythic runs Loot Council
Raid Days: Tuesday & Thursday 9:00PM-12:30PM Server Time (EST).

Recruits: Trial period will be quick and short, and may be anywhere from 1 day to 2 weeks. Core spots open for int ranged dps only.

Subs/Benches: We are looking for 1-2 more subs (NOT a core raider). If you are interested in this position you will get invited to our Heroic runs (you are not obligated to come - accept/decline at your leisure), but you will most likely sit for progression. If our core raiders cannot make it one night, and you are also available that same night and feel like raiding, we will pull you to come in to raid. Consider it a more casual approach to raiding, if your schedule does not permit full-time commitment like it does for our current benches.

What we expect:
-Punctuality & attendance
-Thorough understanding of your raiding role, and a desire to push that character to be the best you can be.
With that being said, gear levels should be HM acceptable of Heroics, but we are always, and have in the past, willing to work around gear, should we feel we have the right person.

History/"The boring details":
Defile is a level 25 guild that has been raiding and clearing content since BC. Defile, formerly known as Apocalypse back then, was created on Thrall back at the start of cataclysm to the end, where we went 6/7HM FL and 6/8HM DS pre-nerf. We took a break, and willing members who came back to play mid-MoP merged with Chinese Take Out from Terokkar. In a very short amount of time, we came back strong, finishing 5/13HM in ToT, and we are pushing for a full Mythic clear before the end of the year.

We are a very small (as in our raiders are normally the main players who sign on throughout the day), tight-knit group of real life friends who enjoy raiding together. We value having fun during our raid times over everything else. If you aren't having fun while you play a game you are doing something wrong. This being said, we do not bench players and we only accept willing bench spots. We expect a high attendance rate to make up for this, meaning: logged in, ready for summons five minutes prior to raid time and first trash/boss pull at 9.

This is the type of guild where jokes and fun can be had (i.e. killing each other with Sha of Pride trash, trash talking each other's fantasy football leagues, etc), but we are still serious about progression.

I consider the guild a semi-hardcore, semi-casual atmosphere; semi-casual being that we don't replace you for missing a day or two there, real life stuff happens.. as long as it doesn't become the 'norm'. We don't penalize you for not having add-ons, we don't force you to gear up alts to go on alt runs. Semi-hardcore as in we expect you to know your class thoroughly, and to be knowledgeable about your raiding spec and only your raiding spec(s) inside and out.

Food, flasks, etc provided.

If you want to have fun raiding with a group of people who wont snap at you for making mistakes, doesn't mind explaining things, and likes to have a good time you can whisper the below officers.
