There's been some changes in Arcanapocolypse over the past month.
First of all, a big shout out to all our new members. Everyone seems pretty cool, and we're looking forward to hanging out, runnin' raids and grinding quests with all of you.
Congratulations to everyone who managed the entire Halloween achievement this year! Vorust got his meta achievement with the completion of Halloween, and won himself a shiny 310% speed proto-drake!
The last news item was talking about NAXX 10, and suffice to say we had a good time running that instance. We'll be re-visiting NAXX from time to time, as other guild members and alts look to equip level 200 epic gear. Those of us who have been 80 for awhile have moved to Ulduar 10, and are enjoying expected success. Many of us are scoring well over 2300 (gear score http://www.wow-heroes.com/) and are looking at 25 man Trial of the Crusader with solid expectations.
We're also playing with the guild tabard a little bit. Many level 80's don't wear non reputation tabards for obvious reasons. If you like to wear the
guild tabard, please tell us what you think!
We are using the website calander extensivly now. Many of us feel that it is a superior method of scheduling raids, and we encourage people to sign up for events on the website, as well as on the in game calander. If you didn't know already, the website confirmations will be used if there is any conflict between the two calanders. So if you really want to go on a particular raid, you would be wise to use the website calander! I believe anyone can schedule an event on both calanders. Even if it's for low level stuff, please feel free to schedule your own event! Many of us, even those of us who have been playing a long time, have skipped lower level instances and raids, and we would like the opportunity for the achievment points!
We have subscribed to a professional VENT server now, at a minimal cost. It's only a 25 slot server at the moment, but if we feel that there is cause, and it's heavily used, I'm sure we can upgrade the subscription. Blizzard does not make forty man raids anymore, so we don't know that there is cause for more than twenty five slots. This is something we will be monitoring closely over the next year. The VENT server is not charged per use, so don't feel that you shouldn't use it. Please use it as much as possible! Please do not give out our VENT server to other players. We absolutly do not mind hosting guests / PUG's on our server, but it is intended primarily for our guilds use.
As always, send Kaline your votes for Guild member of the month!
