Class needs as of 09/29/09:
We have high needs for the following classes:
- Priest(holy)
- Shaman(resto,enhancement)
- Hunter
We have medium needs for the following classes:
- druid(feral), shaman(elemental), DK (dps), mage, warlock
All dps classes should be able to perform *at least* in the 4200 dps range, raid buffed, on the average fight. This number is very flexible depending on gear, experience, the fight, etc.
Because we recruit for the long term, we want players to apply on characters they enjoy playing most, not ones that temporarily fit our biggest needs.
All dps classes, despite the needs above, are encouraged to apply as we have slots for everybody. Despite what our class needs may indicate, we always welcome all classes to apply or at least inquire if you think you might be a fit. We will always consider the most skilled, seasoned, knowledgeable players regardless of need, and often times needs can be filled in more ways than one so don't hesitate to ask.
In a nutshell:
Guild: <Dawn Eternal>
Faction: Alliance
Website:
http://www.dawn-eternal.com
Server/timezone: US-Cenarius (PvE), Pacific Time (PST)
Raid hours: Sun/Mon/Tues/Wed/Thurs 6:00-10:30 PST
Current progression: Ulduar 13/14+several hards, Trial normal, (Sarth3D & 6 minute Malygos down pre-3.1)
Who we are:
* Dawn Eternal was formed in December 2004 and has been focused on raiding endgame content since its inception - we have a stable environment and have been around for a long time (~3 weeks after WoW's release).
* We fully dedicate ourselves to raiding and improving, and we work well together as a team - we expect you to do the same.
* We run a very small and tight roster - we always recruit for the long term and anyone we recruit will actively raid for as long as they want to.
* We prioritize our members' happiness - we recruit selectively and slowly to ensure that apps are a good fit, and we have an extremely low number of gquits and gkicks.
* We are very patient with our apps - we work with them to help them improve, and we value their attitudes, dedication, knowledge, and potential more than their gear, experience, or class.
* We run a very calm and comfortable raiding environment - we prefer to use tells and channels to adjust and fix problems, rather than yell or openly chastise in Vent.
If you have the high playtime, skill, and desire to raid at high levels, and yet want to be with a very guild-oriented, stable group that has been around for years, we may be the guild for you.
Raid hours, attendance, and loot:
Currently, 25-man raids are run Sunday through Thursday, 6:00-10:30pm PST, which we ask applicants to commit at least 80% attendance to so they can be effectively evaluated. We are looking for people who can commit to this schedule in the long term for the entirety of the raid. Loot in the 25-man's is distributed through a modified zero-sum DKP. We generally run optional 10-man raids on Friday and Saturday and heroics whenever we get the chance. Applicants immediately start earning dkp as soon as they start showing up for raid and dkp is retained through rank promotions.
Progression:
A good site for raid progression is:

We currently have Ulduar cleared with several hard modes and are continuing to work on the rest of the hard modes while doing the new Trial hardmodes.
The server:
Cenarius is one of the original Pacific-coast PvE servers, part of the Whirlwind battlegroup, and has majority alliance population although the horde have some very good raiding guilds as well. Naturally, there are a vast number of raiding alliance guilds on Cenarius, making it the ideal home if you are an alliance focused on raiding. Cenarius is home to Thott of Afterlife and was at one point home to Ciderhelm of Eventide and the penny arcade guys. It was the second US server to unlock all of sunwell. Even if we aren't the guild for you, your transfer wouldn't be for naught as there are many other competitive guilds on the server.
