If you are interested in raiding normal-mode content with us in Mists, please read the Mists Raiding FAQ to understand what we expect of our raid members and how we run the raid. The normal-mode raid is designed to satisfy the desire for challenge, progression and team play for those members who want to attempt the harder content and can commit to the regular attendance necessary for the group to succeed.
We run it as a rostered raid, with a set number of regulars who get invited first every week, and a small number of alternates who are invited to fill vacancies if a regular cannot come. We expect about 80% attendance of our regulars; as well as a high level of skill at the game, ability to follow orders, try new things, and learn from mistakes; and patience with wiping as we attempt new content.
The raid runs from 7:30 to 9:30 server time (occasionally as late as 10:30) on Thursday evenings, with an occasional second night on Tuesdays from 7:30 to 9:30 as needed. We will probably start running normal mode content after several weeks of LFR raiding, with the LFR raids functioning as an accelerating onramp heading toward the normal-mode content. We will use the LFR raid to bring our team together and start gearing up. A ballpark start date for the normal mode raid would be some time in November, but we will play this by ear.
If this sounds like the kind of thing you'd like to do, then please add your name to our Mists raiding sign up sheet!
