I too belong to a guild that was not thriving under the old endgame, but has currently cleared Kara and looking towards ZA and Gruul's in the New Year. <BR/><BR/>Job well done, Blizz.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-26604384298916753022007-12-24T08:26:00.000-08:002007-12-24T08:26:00.000-08:00I had played as a paladin in 2004, and got quickly...I had played as a paladin in 2004, and got quickly turned off by 40 man raiding, and basically quit the game for over a year after.<BR/><BR/>I restarted playing about a year ago, and I must say, with TBC its been great, exactly for that fertile soil you are talking about.<BR/><BR/>My guild thrives there, we are a small family-style guild. We value friends and people a lot more than loot and progression.<BR/><BR/>But that doesn't mean we don't have skill, and with all the different avenues for progression that TBC gives us, it doesn't mean we don't have gear either. <BR/><BR/>Our evenings are usually 1 heroic for ourselves, and one lesser instance to help our dear friends who dont' have level 70 characters yet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-75725501408451828582007-12-23T03:19:00.000-08:002007-12-23T03:19:00.000-08:00I've been thriving on that fertile soil for a whil...I've been thriving on that fertile soil for a while now, never got passed KZ but because guilds don't need to be as big as they used to, they can be alot more social. I really couldn't play without a guild like that.<BR/>Also I've been farming the daily heroics for 2 weeks now, and only met 2 bad PUGS out of 12 or so. But our server (venture co) is above mediocre comapred to my old one so maybe that helps :PJerodarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17180242218651710721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-27540888055856036962007-12-23T03:14:00.000-08:002007-12-23T03:14:00.000-08:00Yup , nice post. im allways listening to people in...Yup , nice post. im allways listening to people in guild chat advising others never to join a Heroic Pug as its just an expensive repair bill and a wipefest. And yes usually i run them with a bunch of trusted peeps for quick easy badges. But every now and then i join lfg and see who i get. Of course you get some nightmares but then you get some great groups who play with skill and now and again you even learn something new. Its nice to play with different people now and again too. I went to blood furnace heroic with a pug after 2.3, i couldnt help but check their gear out and was slightly worried when i saw a few greens amongst them. Then to my suprise we cleared the place without a wipe.<BR/><BR/>Lazenby Arathor euAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-80735036716684928402007-12-22T23:43:00.000-08:002007-12-22T23:43:00.000-08:00Nice post!
