Who We Are Summation (summationeq.com) is a raiding guild on the Ragefire TLP server that focuses on end-game content. We are a group of active players that consistently clears the highest tiers of raiding inside of the most recent expansion. Our ranks contain both knowledgeable solo players and boxers, with the latter using a handful of their best characters to round out our raids. Our raid attendance farming schedule is Tuesday/Thursday/Friday from 8PM - 11PM Eastern Time. Currently, we have completed Tier 3 raiding of Veil of Alaris and are making steady progress into Tier 4 events. What Makes Us Unique Every raider is dedicated to our objective - Planning goes into each expansion to ensure that everyone knows what to do to be raid ready, and have the content cleared as soon as possible for optimal gearing chances. Regardless of our raid attendance requirement our attendance numbers are exceptionally high compared to other guild's rosters, and our attrition rate comparably low. We clear the content ahead of us even when we field low player numbers and use multibox tools to fill in the gaps. Our DKP System is fair to the time you put into the current content -We use an attendance-based points accrual with most loot having a fixed price. DKP is reset at the beginning of major expansions and seeded based on the previous total attendance. This system reinforces that: Your attendance matters and helps us to progress. You are encouraged to gear your active raiding characters, as unspent DKP doesn't roll over. Gear can't be disproportionately won with stockpiled DKP. You don't have to devote every spare moment to us - Scheduled raids give our players the ability to strike a balance between the game and their own life. You don't have to worry about an expedition timer ending on a day you're not available to raid, and players have a better retention of event mechanics and their roles when they're not missing lockouts. We still clear the content ahead of us and have time to farm this way. Recruitment Details Recruitment is open to most classes with a desire to raid and an ability to follow instruction. If your character isn't yet ready for raiding, we can still provide you with a guild tag and help get you the levels, AAs, or starter gear you'll need to catch up. People playing multiple accounts are also welcome to join us. We have an alt system in place to accommodate gearing them as well. Please reach out to any tagged character through tells or in-game mail to connect with us.
Bumping with an update on our activity. Summation has seen positive player returns and turnout, and we're successfully splitting our raid force to double the number of Two Gods kills per week. This gives us: way more Phosphenes, way more sexy, top-of-the-line weapons and click effects, and way more preparation for the next expansion. We're the only guild on the server pushing this way, and we're doing it without adding more days to our farming schedule. At this rate, our alts are going to be decked out almost as well as our mains. We're also still recruiting for any talented players who want to get in on this action. Check summationeq.com for more info on how we operate, and reach out to Bapt, Candae, or Disil if you're interested.
Making solid progress through the Secrets of Faydwer expansion with our team. We're at a good point to include new recruits, and the experience bonus currently active makes that easier than ever to get you established. For our Lockjaw friends that will merge and may not have a raiding guild to call home yet (and anyone else wanting to jump into the start of some great raiding on a set weekly schedule), check in with Bapt, Candae, or Disil.
Summation has completed Secrets of Faydwer raiding and it's all on farm status with the kills getting quicker each week. There's plenty of time left before SoD launches and loot is already going to plenty of our alts and we have space for some more good players, so if you want to get in on the raiding scene, get in touch with Bapt, Candae, or Disil. Recruitment currently OPEN for: All cloth classes All leather classes All chain classes Cleric Bard Recruitment currently CLOSED for: Warrior Shadow Knight Paladin
Summation has successfully cleared Tower of Discord and completed the Seeds of Destruction progression. There's effectively twelve weeks before the launch of Underfoot and we intend to start splitting raids soon to give us plenty of time and opportunity to gear any new guildmates! We'll accept new tanks on a selective basis. Recruitment's open for basically anything else as long as you know your class. Reach out to Bapt, Candae, or Disil, or check out summationeq.com for more information.
Tower of Discord - Hard Mode was also finished this week. It's hard to tell every guild's progress when each system message is just "A chest got owned by people lols", but to our knowledge there's only AT MOST two guilds on Ragefire that have done this, and we do it with ~25 active raiders. That's less than HALF the active people of the only other guild that MIGHT be doing it. If you think you got the ability to steamroll content with us, reach out to Bapt, Candae, or Disil.
Underfoot launched this week on the Ragefire server, and we're already making speedy progress towards Convorteum. If you've wanted to play this content, now's a great time to join us and get up to speed while guildies are running progression tasks. Bapt, Candae, or Disil can help get you situated.
Update: Convorteum has been completed/farmed, and we're continuing our work on splitting events. A few technical issues have prevented us from utilizing the guild website, and this makes the Content Administrator very sad. We're not dead, I promise! If you'd like to join us in farming one of the toughest in-era expansions, please contact one of our officers for more information.
"Duuurrrrr Disil, don't update the guild recruitment post the night before new TLP servers launch it'll get buried." Shut up, I do what I want! Summation has handily beaten all of House of Thule's T1-T3 content, and will be in Sanctum Somnium just as soon as we have another week or two's worth of Sanctum Keys (13 keys per 2 lockouts is still too low). What that means for you is that this is the best time to get situated, get your required participation backflags while we have some extra farming to do, and then get all the loot we normally pick up on alts. If you're interested, find someone with a guild tag and have a chat with them.
What have we been up to? We farmed Sanctum until we had a whole bag of weapons to put on the wall of the guild hall we didn't have yet. Then we had VoA launch and set up a guild hall for said weapons to be displayed outside. Then we took that wall of weapons down, sent them to guild tribute, and made a new display of weapons in VoA that we already received more than we need of. I built a grove of trees outside. It's nice. We're currently working on Tier 4 content in VoA, with plenty of weeks left in the expansion. The newest app started getting loot before he was even max level; that's how much we have to spare. If you're interested (we know you're interested), reach out to any of our tagged members. Just don't let them convince you that you have to multibox if you don't want to.
