Welcome to Ancient Legacy

Dear guild!

As you've probably noticed, we have some problems with going through with progress in ICC 25 lately. The reason for that is really simple - we don't have enough sign-ups for Mondays run. The fact that 25 people signs up is not enough, we need a certain set of buffs, classes and etc. This is why last run was canceled, and it will be again in the future if situation stays same. This may come as a shock for some of you, but us officers are thinking about suspending ICC 25 for a few weeks unless the situation changes this reset. It's not been decided yet and we hope that it won't be necessary.

I'm asking you all to think about this for a while. Do you want to make nice progress like we have, or do you just want to farm first wing over and over again. From now on if you sign up for Thursdays run, you will automatically sign up for Monday as well. We wont be hardasses, if something comes up and it's impossible for you to attend, it is what it is. Just be kind enough to let a fellow officer know. If you get accepted for both days, and you do not show for Mondays run without a good reason, you will automatically be put on standby for next week. We do this to ensure that we all can enjoy 25 man raids. It's no fun for the 24 others to hear that there will be no run, cause one of the guild members hasn't shown for any particular reason. Please, we ask you all to be considerate towards your guildies.

I hope you all understand our point of view and will try do something about it together with the officers.

Take care and cu in guild chat:)

Sincerely

Tusia, Donklekot, Sayed, Dorrien, Crasker and Wraithor.

Dear guild.

We've finally managed to take the next evolutionary step with the administrative.....stuff. Much much cleaner and easy to read set of rules. Explanations of ranks. Revamp of the DKP rules, some editing here and there. It looks really good, and Niun deserves lots and lots of praise for it, so make sure u tell her ;)

It's vital for both you and us, that you set of a bit of time and go through all this. This is to avoid misunderstanding and to have the same set of expectations for everyone. We've managed to come up with an incentive to get more apps in on raidranks, so that we know that we have comitted people getting those ranks. As they were now, they had some purpose, but it really didn't get the "reaction" or obligation from the ppl who got it. I wont tell you what the incentive is, so you'll have to go read it yourself.

With this, we're hoping to build a much better and effectivly working structure for the guild. Everything is not all the way there yet, but it will be in a matter of days. There will be no excuses for "didnt know that, didnt read this", anymore. It is all firmly stated, black on....red atm. There will maybe be some tweaks here and there, as im sure that some guildies will enlighten us. And by all means do, there should be no doubt about anything here.

I hope you all find it interesting reading, as all the officers has done what they can do improve the set of rules and etc. And again, big ty for Niun who's managed to get it all looking very good :)

Cya in GC!

Been so long now, i felt the news posts needed an update ;)

Im still being surprised by how well we do. Sure, we all have our off days and raids, but this occurs to everyone. Im talking about how we do when we're at our strongest. Not concering what players are brought to a raid, cause i consider you all to be fantastic and you're doing your job excellently. But considering us all to having a gd day, we're just smashing through every obstacle put before us.

Altho we've had some raids being cancelled lately, what i've seen on the raids that we've been doing has been gr8. Seeing everyone perform over 4k dps and the tanks and healers, as always, has been flawless. It's taken a very long time to mold and shape this team to get it right, and now i'm seeing it all come together, there's only a few pieces missing atm. And when i say this, it's not only because classes and specs being brought to a raid, its also very much about the compatibility of the people in the raid. Easier put, that we all get along. And im relieved that we have survived the summer. So many guilds die and disband due to not being able to raid and etc, but we've stayed strong and will continue to do so.

Yes, we've had some casualties during this process, we've lost some gr8 ppl and players, mostly due to personal reasons but there are ofc exceptions. But this is bound to happen, not everyone will be happy and sometimes there are choices to be made concering that.

It looks like to me, that this team is getting ready for hardmodes. There are a few we can aim at, and some others may be further away still. To say this takes allot, cause there was a time where we were saying that this couldn't be done. Well, now it can :) I just want to commend you all cause of your loyalty, your skills, your drive towards progression and your ability to see the big picture of things. We have quality in every departement now, if one drops out, we have quality enough to have someone else step in and do the same job just as well. This really amazes me, you all amaze me :)

You all have contributed to make this guild what it is, to give it the rep it now has. Continue what u've all been doing so greatly, and lets improve even further.

Hi peeps.

Lately there's been a bit of an issue on TS. We all enjoy eachothers company, most of us enjoy chatting, and some even singing. This is quite alright, and helps keep our moods liftet and makes the raids more enjoyable. There has however, arised an issue when it comes to explaining tactics, talking during fights, and the things that become essential before and during downing a boss.

There was for example quite allot of confusion going on during Vezax. When u get 3 different explanations at once, altho they were all similar, things tend to just fly by and u start ignoring what ppl are saying. Some of the same stuff was close to happening during Mimiron, which i in the end felt that i had to take charge and sort stuff out. Also, when raidleader, or other designated ppl are trying to make a quick decision or tell ppl to do something. You do exactly what that person says. It may cause a wipe, it may save the day, in some extreme cases there might even be a /gquit. But it is essential that we keep faith and listen and concentrate on what that person is saying. Now, u've gotten a bit of an explanation on things, this is how things work from now on:

- Raidleader will designate one person to explain tactics where needed, this person will have peace while explaining, so that everyone can hear and understand what will be going on during the fight.

- Incase of fights where we will need to separate ppl into grps and such, raidleader will designate a shouter(s) where it is needed. This person will shout out whats going on at that particulate place. (Example; shouter in right grp on Vezax, shouts when to move) 

- No chit chat during fights, keep your head 110% focused on whats going on where u are and the surroundings.

- Questions and suggestions are directed to the person thats responsibel for that current fight. Otherwise healing questions go to Brasker normally, or Dhia. Questions/suggestions towards raiding overall is directed to Wraithor. Other officers are ofc available aswell should you feel the need for talking to someone else.

So, recap; Do talk on TS, we all make most of our fun there, but be quiet when a person explains something, be quiet if you are not a designated shouter during the fight. Ask if there was something u didnt get AFTER the explanation.

One last thing, when we do bosses, i (Wraith) will have to sort grps and also coordinate that sorting between the one responsible for healing. This takes time, and when done properly, makes the fight much much easier. This will go quicker after we've gotten a boss a a few times. But be patient. 

Thats it for now, more structure during raids makes the fights easier and the raid more enjoyable for everyone. We've got the stuff guys, lets start showing it off for real!
