Raiding with Peace and Quiet

Not all raids are the same, but they generally share characteristics. You can help out a lot by being prepared for the raid you are to be attending.

To raid with PQ you'll need the following add-ons installed and configured. More to the point you'll need to understand how to use them.

• Omen

As part of implementing the second axiom, members should be able to contribute to a raid they are not attending.

• Guild runs (where possible) will be streamed via mogulus.com; more information about this may be found here.
• The official raid channel (/ra) is not used for any raids except for raid warnings.
• The channel pqraid is used for for voice and raid chat.
• This channel is not limited to those currently raiding, and is open to all.

• Keep your unavailable days up-to-date on the calendar. The raid is determined in advance based on this information. If you miss a raid because your unavailability information is incorrect, you inconvenience everybody else.

• Check your add-ons. New versions are being released all the time and often lose compatibility with older versions. Keep yours up-to-date. A large number of add-ons can be kept up-to-date with the CurseClient.
• Get your in-raid communications gear sorted out. Headsets, microphones, speakers etc.

• If you've recently suffered a crash, please double check your game settings and test your voice communications.
• Get repairs.
• Check potion and other consumable supplies.
• Ensure you've packed the correct gear (resist, alternate, etc).

• Head over to the raid instance.
• Start summoning people. We allow for a lot of dead time in the schedules, but it's better to be early than late!
• Be patient! The raid organiser is probably busy.
• Start buffing up where appropriate.

• Loot distribution is set to “Group Loot” in all our raids at all times.
• For BoP items:
  • A “Need” roll indicates an upgrade for your current role.
  • A “Greed” roll indicates an upgrade for an alternate role, or a side grade for your current role.
• BoE items are always greeded on by the raid.
