Team Highlight: Quarion

History

Quarion started raiding at the beginning of Ny’alotha as an early 2-night mythic progression team. They spent the tier creating an atmosphere of positive, fun people that are dedicated to working together to reach their goals. In Shadowlands, they are adding a 3rd day to really push their progression forward.

Team Highlight: Valiant

History:

Valiant formed in Battle of Dazar’alor as a mythic progression team. They cleared heroic AotC each tier plus a few mythic bosses as expected, but they really had a chance to shine in Ny’alotha. At 10 Mythic kills, they proved they had built a capable team with a solid foundation.

BFA:  Battle of Dazar’alor 9/9H, 3/9M

            Crucible of Storms 2/2H

            Eternal Palace 8/8H, 3/8M

Team Highlight: Gravity

History

Gravity joined the Eternal Kingdom family as a guild merger during the Battle of Dazal’alor (BoD) raid tier. Their former server <Medivh> had seen a decline in raider population, and they hoped to find a new home where they could thrive and make a return to Mythic Cutting Edge. 

The road is not an easy one and there were many setbacks along the way to rebuilding. The team speaks of a “Gravity curse” due to sudden technical issues and real life complications that plague the team at the most inconvenient of times. But the team has pressed on and accomplished their goal of earning Cutting Edge by killing Mythic N’Zoth.

Achievements

BFA –   Battle of Dazal’alor   4/9 M

             Eternal Palace   6/8 M

Team Highlight: Benediction

History:

Benediction was born at the start of Battle for Azeroth. They are a heroic team dedicated to clearing heroic AotC every tier. For fun, they might take a stab at a mythic boss, but they’d prefer to keep it more casual and focus on other fun things.

Achievements:

Team Highlight: Gallant

History

Gallant was first introduced during Tomb of Sargeras as a heroic team, however that label didn’t really fit as Gallant has ventured into mythic every tier since their inception.

At only 4 hours a week, Gallant has a casual and relaxed atmosphere. They are capable of pushing further progression, but choose to keep things fun and light instead. They don’t actively enforce attendance and like to keep an open door policy so players can leave to pursue other goals and return to the team later. This has allowed Gallant to acquire a very large circle of friends and a nearly unlimited bench.

Achievements

Legion – Tomb of Sargeras 9/9H, 2/9M

                Antorus 11/11H, 2/11M

BFA –     Uldir 8/8H, 2/8M

Team Highlight: Kismet

History

Kismet is a one-night heroic weekend team. They were formed in the final months of Nighthold with two main goals. The first was to be a transitional heroic-to-mythic team. The second was to be a recruitment team, utilizing the group finder to bring in new applicants to the guild. While great on paper, the team could not sustain a happy and healthy environment under those conditions, and eventually opted to change their focus to Heroic AotC.

They’ve brought in old friends, made new ones, and met their goal of AotC every tier since Tomb of Sargeras. With heroic progression completed and plenty of time before the next raid tier, Kismet has dabbled in mythic content, killing bosses from every major BFA raid.

Team Highlight: Immortal

History

Immortal has risen from the ashes twice, each new iteration seeking to push farther and faster than the one before it. Their logo pays homage to their lineage which begins with the name, Phoenix. 

The exact history for Phoenix is unfortunately lost, however we do know they raided during Warlords – Hellfire Citadel as well as Legion – Emerald Nightmare. It was in Nighthold that Phoenix was reborn as team Imperium.

Imperium progressed through the rest of the Legion expansion and slowly began shifting their goals from mythic progression to Cutting Edge. They added a day to their roster and started taking progression more seriously. At the end of Legion, Imperium was reborn a second time, this time as Immortal.

Immortal fully embraced the challenge of reaching their new goal. They earned Cutting Edge BoD and Ny’alotha, killing Mythic Jaina and Mythic N’Zoth respectively.

Achievements

Warlords: HFC 6/13M (Phoenix)  

Legion: Emerald Nightmare 1/7M (Phoenix)

             Nighthold 6/10M, Tomb of Sargeras 5/9M, Argus 10/11M Argus (Imperium)

BFA: Uldir 7/8M, BoD 9/9M, Eternal Palace 7/8M, Ny’alotha 12/12M (Immortal)

Team Highlight: Harbinger

History

Harbinger is the longest running heroic team in the guild. They started raiding at the beginning of Legion and have successfully met their goal of full-clearing heroic difficulty every raid tier (including mini raids). 

For a team that’s been raiding for such a long time, you wouldn’t expect to find many original members on the roster, but Harbinger still has several: Cosmoso, Darayah, Erementha, Fivelo, Geyigi, and Tahldar.

That’s 10 AotCs, 6 original members, and 4 years of raiding, all spanning 2 expansions! Add in a few Mythic Antorus boss kills for fun, a constant reminder that you can in fact put a healer in the pod on High Command, and it all adds up to one solid raid team.

Progression Achievements

Legion: Emerald Nightmare 7/7H, Trial of Valor 3/3H, Nighthold 10/10H, Tomb of Sargeras 9/9H, Antorus 12/12H

BFA: Uldir 8/8H, Battle of Dazar’alor 9/9H, Crucible of Storms 2/2H, Eternal Palace 8/8H, Ny’alotha 12/12H
