<Nocturnal Souls> Agnarr

[Maker_Mayhem]

Greetings friends,

Here is an excerpt from our recruitment thread.

We have been around since the dawn of time... or at least the dawn of the MMO. Starting back in original Everquest, we have always maintained the philosophy of "do more with less". We pride ourselves in finding players that are dedicated, loyal, and above all, skilled. We thrive on defeating encounters with strategy, not numbers. While this version of Everquest will not necessarily be as taxing as in days past, we still have no desire to have a "ZERG!" mentality.


What is expected of our members?

1. Maturity - Age is not so much a factor with us. In the past, we have had some very capable members that did not fall in the "21+" range. However, we do require a member to be able to follow instructions, keep the drama out of the guild, and be able to chat in complete sentences.

2. Availability - Back in the old days of Everquest, we scheduled full guild raids 4 nights a week, and had 1-2 more optional raids a week as well. While we fully intend to have plenty for members to do, we are a lot more forgiving of a persons out of game schedule than in the past. That said, we are not looking for members that play once a week. Because we are not interested in having a guild with 100+ members, its vital that our members maintain a higher level of attendance than in a pure "casual" guild. On average, we would like our members to play a minimum of 3-4 nights a week for a few hours a night.

3. Sense of Humor - Many of us have played together for many years, and as such have become very good friends. We tend to joke around with each other quite a bit. Its important that our members understand our verbal sparring is strictly in fun and we never take it seriously. That said, we tend to keep our conversations in a manner that is (mostly) PG-13, so to speak. We are not interested in vulgarity and will not accept any type of chatting that can be found offensive.

4. Team Oriented - We expect our members to contribute to the guild in some way. What that contribution is we leave to the individual members to decide. Grouping with other members for quests, using trade skills to outfit other members, simply entertaining other members with excellent guild chat... the choice is yours. A guild is a team effort and everyone is expected to contribute.


What are the goals of the guild?

1. Having FUN - This is the number one priority of the guild. If our members are not having fun, then we have failed in our chief goal. We plan on doing this by having plenty for our members to do. Group questing, epic hunts, raiding... we plan on doing it all.

2. Progression - Everyone likes to improve his or her character. That can be accomplished through levels, gear, or any number of things. One of our goals is to constantly improve the guild. Naturally, this is done by making our members stronger. We will do this by making sure we utilize available trade skills, saving found gear for members, and of course... grouping in instances. All this will lead to the ultimate goal of being able to master every raid encounter the game has to offer.

What are the raid days/hours, and loot system to be used?

At the start, we will have raid days of Sunday and Monday from 6:30-9:00pm Central time (7:30-10:00 Eastern). We will add a 3rd raid day at some point, picked based on availability of guild members

As for loot, we've used a Suicide Ladder version of DKP with great results in the past. While this is not necessarily set in stone, some form of this will be used.

How do I apply?

Please contact Grishnor, Elfintolerant, or Maker in game, fill out an application or leave a message on the forums at http://ns-agnarr-eq.shivtr.com/ and we will get in touch with you. You can also ask any questions you have on this post.

Thanks for reading!

3. Sense of Humor - Many of us have played together for many years, and as such have become very good friends. We tend to joke around with each other quite a bit.

Did OP's guild do any other TLP servers?

[Maker_Mayhem]

Yes Swish, Grishnor carried it over to Ragefire - but they weren't too impressed with it. Agnarr is more of a last stop for a lot of us who have played it over the past ..18 or so years? Stops at a good enough place.

The write up is from Grishnor -- he has a group of several who started together in EQ back in 99. They are still playing together btw MM to answer your interview with more precision.

I've been around since 99-2003 then not so much until 2014 on p99, TLPs etc. -- But just merged some people i'm with into NS. They are a group of great guys.
