Hi all,
There are now three or four groups of individuals creating websites dedicated to the forming of raiding groups for the high level instances such as Molten Core, BlackWing Lair, Zul Gurub, Onyxia...ect.
I am a member and have raided with SilverMoon Raid Alliance, AllianceRaiders, MC Random Access Raiding Experience and am a raiding member with Dark Destiny (guild).
The SRA is very accomplished and well organized. The problem is - they only raid with a select few regular members. This might change in the future if they open up 2 seperate raiding parties when they feel confident with the numbers showing up for 2 concurrent runs each week.
AllianceRaiders is in its infantcy and is trying to gather steam to tackle the likes of UBRS and ZG right now - but I find there isnt enough strong leadership there.
MC Random Access Raiding Experience is new also and is trying to dive into doing MC runs. The leaders seem to know what to do and seem committed and there was a decent turn out for the raid last week. This seems promising for a future SRA copy - if the leaders stay committed and recruit good people who will stay through the learning stages.
Dark Destiny, along with the other raiding guilds do guild only raids - they do let in close freinds when they have the need. They have decent prospects, but in the long run, you either join their guild or will only get an invite if they need you - otherwise it's guildies only. This goes the same for all the raiding guilds - they will only take you if they need you - don't hold your breath and expect a lot of waiting around and not getting in. Also most raiding guilds have a point sysytem so you will not be able to get any loot - you are just there for the experience.
What I would like is to have all Dragoon Knights commit to 1 of these groups for MC/Onyxia raiding. I don't want each of us participating in seperate, various others' raiding groups. Being locked out of the instances when the other DK members want to go raiding with the designated group and we needed your help is something I want to avoid.
All of the raid ready lvl 60 Dragoon Knights should sign up with and try to focus on raiding with one designated raiding groups out there. MC Random Access Raiding Experience seems like the best choice right now for MC raiding on Sundays. Siofrenna, Derricka, Trayus and I have signed up with them so far.
AllianceRaiders is also a group to sign up with for UBRS and ZG runs now and then.
So I guess I would like feedback on your raiding group preference - tell me if there are others. Also I would like to get confirmation and a commitment to the group DK will sign up with so we are ready, able and willing to help out doing the instance runs every week when possible. That way the leaders of the raiding group can properly plan the raid when they can count on certain people showing up most of the time.
Let me know what you think!
