Tuesday (24 Jul) - The Last Guild Report

Tuesday (24 Jul) - The Last Guild Report

Each year, in January, I do a wrap of the prior year. One of the staples of that report is about guild raiding. The report is not only about Wild and his guild's current raiding status and progress, but of all of the other guilds Wild has associated with over the years.

Here is the final report on the status of Wild's raiding guilds:

Meitha - Technically, this is Wild's current raid guild. Wild stopped raiding on 10 May, 2012. It wasn't supposed to be permanent, but Wild has not been in a guild raid since.

Total Members: 495 (2013) - an increase of 109 guildies

Total 90s: 118 (2013) - an increase of 15

Raid Accomplishments: Based on Achievements (bosses/downed bosses)

Raid                 Dec 2012    July 2013

Mogu’Shan Vaults     (0/6)       (2/6)

Heart of Fear        (0/6)       (1/6)

Terrace .. Spring    (0/4)       (0/4)

Throne of Thunder    (0/12)      (0/12)

Mayhem - Wild’s guild until June 2012. Kirà/Wightblade GM

Misguided - Kirà/Wightblade GM

Note: At one time Mayhem used an ansi character in it's name, though I no longer remember which letter. The Mayhem guild above has no ansi character and was active at least as early as 29 Feb, 2012 (from the Silvermoon realm site). Misguided shows up on 18 Feb, 2013, with the same GM so I'm pretty sure this is just a renamed guild. Whether it spawned from the original Mayhem guild that Wild belonged to ... well, I can't be sure.

Total Members: 119 (2013)

Total 90s:     47 (2013)

I had no idea how ugly this would be. It seems that Pandaria has utterly overwhelmed the old guilds. Or, to look at it another way, they ARE old guilds. All of these guilds have been in place at least as far back as the Burning Crusade. Perhaps they should get some credit for surviving this long.

The exception is the guild Misguided. It appears that the old Mayhem was reborn as Misguided, and is the most active raiding guild in the above list. I'll try to contact the GM and find out how things are going for them.

Seeing some of the old player names, I can't help but wonder just how many of Wild's current and former raiders are still out there. I intend to find out.
