Raid Schedule
Tuesday/Thursday 9pm-1am EST
<Future> was founded on the idea that an enjoyable social
atmosphere and a progression-oriented raid environment are not
mutually exclusive concepts. We aim to clear all heroic/mythic
content while it is relevant and have a lot of fun while doing it.
But plenty of guilds say that, so why are we different? We believe
that having a close-knit group can not only coexist with a
progression mindset, but directly contributes to achieving success
as a guild over the long term. Content comes and goes, raid
mechanics get refreshed and recycled, classes get nerfed and
buffed…but the people, they’re what keep us coming back for more.
World of Warcraft can help forge friendships which transcend the
game, and we’re looking to capitalize on that as a springboard to
our success.
Having a tight raid group contributes to the guild’s overall
success in a number of ways:
· First, it makes progression raiding more enjoyable and the team
more effective while progressing. It may not be easy to maintain a
positive attitude once you reach wipe #150 on a new boss no matter
what the guild aims to do, but it’s almost impossible to sustain
the right environment without a foundation of friendship throughout
the raid. Furthermore, social compatibility help to create an
incentive structure where you want to perform at a high level for
those around you, rather than to avoid being yelled at as is common
in more hardcore guilds.
· Second, a quality social atmosphere makes farm content
significantly more palatable the 20th time through. People get
bored, play sloppy, and ultimately end up quitting the game when
they have to log in to an environment where everyone is mindlessly
and silently hitting their buttons while watching the same boss
timers they have for 5 months straight. But if everyone is close,
it’s much easier to break the monotony with jokes and friendly
jabs, performance competitions, and the like. This helps keep
people together as we work towards the next progression boss (or
tier).
· Lastly, having the right mix of personalities and people
contributes to lower roster turnover. Every raid guild in history
has people leave who then need to be replaced—but not all guilds
endure the same turnover rate. Focusing on the social aspects of
raiding won’t eliminate turnover, but it will minimize it; and
minimal turnover is critical for raiding success on a limited
schedule.
The progression goal is a simple one: clear all heroic/mythic
content while it is relevant (see: before the next content patch or
expansion is released). We are not shooting for world or server
firsts, nor do we particularly care about finishing ten spots
higher on WoWProgress rankings. While we absolutely are determined
to progress as quickly as we can as a group, we will not sacrifice
our core values in the process because doing so would undermine our
foundation going forward.
