==========================================================


The Raven Council is recruiting!

By golly I bet you're happy to hear those words!

..Not heard of us? Well, read on, cupcakes.

<The Raven Council> on Defias Brotherhood (EU) is a ridiculously long-standing guild with a lively and welcoming community. We've been on this server since ye olde days of 2005, and we've adapted to all those fancy new expansions and players since then, so this is one guild that definitely won't spontaneously combust any time soon. The guild is big, buzzing and friendly, and we take our raiding seriously! We've got two organised raid teams in the guild, so the info here specifically concerns "RG1", the three-day-a-week Mythic progression group.
Most of RG1 have been raiding together for many years and are a fun, mature and relaxed kinda bunch. Also, fortunately quite capable of swiftly dispatching any boss we lay eyes on. We adapt well and aren't afraid to give and take constructive criticism. It's very rare for us to lose players, and new recruits are treated well - if we like them, we strive to keep them.. Forever. >)
The group is motivated, strong and stable - Not a revolving door full of inflated egos!

We raid for three hours, on three days during progress, and aim to make best use of this time in order to be competitive with other, more time-devouring guilds. Historically a 10-man guild, we became the second guild (first 3-day-only guild) on the server to fully clear Heroic SoO on both 10 & 25 man sizes (EU rank 426 & 467 respectively), and therefore one of the very few successful transitions from a 10 to 25-man guild before WoD hit.

Our aims for an expansion involve maintaining a genuinely enjoyable raiding environment while clearing all current Mythic content before the next tier. We've had more than a few comments from [non-bribed] outsiders about just how excellent the atmosphere is!

• Know their class inside and out, including best talents and legendaries to use on each fight, and have the capability and experience to perform to a high standard with all such builds.

• 
  If you don't meet some of the above requirements, eg if you haven't raided this tier/expansion - feel free to chat to us anyway! We value historically awesome raiders, too.
  
  
  *What's Defias Brotherhood like..?
  A high populated (but never queued) RP-PvP realm with a good, mature community and near-perfect Alliance:Horde balance. o/
  
  
  So! If you're looking for a social atmosphere with top-notch raiding, and you reckon you might be a good fit for us here, go apply on our forums!
