Order of the Blue Garter: We Can Stay On the Roomba

We are a competitive, cutting-edge, endgame-oriented FC that values pride in our gameplay, humility among our peers, and a sense of humor about ourselves.

And we try to have a good time along the way. Our goal has always been to compete to the best of our ability, whether that means being the first FC in the world to clear Turn 8 with two consecutive groups and then clear Turn 9, or casually tackle Turn 7 Savage.

Currently, we are looking to shore up our roster to allow us to have one extremely solid progression group and a second support/feeder group with enough depth to keep those groups pushing for as long as it takes to clear the content. Our bench will be used to help fill out spots when other players are unavailable and contribute to strat discussions. Typically, we ask our players to be able to put in 12+ hours a day for at least three to seven days or so of new content, then we scale back according to everyone's needs. To put things into perspective, when we were working on Twintania, the last month consisted of six days of attempts per week on average, four to six hours a day, but for a while we were maintaining eight-hour days; right now, we put time into Savage Coil four days a week, two to six hours each day. We raid based around Pacific Standard/Daylight Time peak hours (see our application/trial guidelines page for more information; link is at the bottom of the post).

The most important thing to us is competing against ourselves and pushing our capabilities to the utmost. We can sum it all up in one word: "carefactor." (If it wasn't one word before, it is now.) How much do you care about your gameplay and how it affects your team? Are you the type of player that always asks yourself, "What can *I* do to turn this attempt into a win for us -- how can I make everyone else's jobs easier?" As an FC, that's the core value that unites us: the drive to be better for ourselves and for each other.

We are happy to consider exceptional players of any job, but we're specifically looking for main healers and tanks. We want healers who live and breathe output and efficiency, who can mindmeld with bosses and predict incoming damage to the point where the heal resolves milliseconds after the damage lands. We want main tanks who understand WAR/PLD synergy, can snap-aggro so hard that bosses' heads explode, and use cooldowns so perfectly healers can't even tell there's incoming damage.

If you have any questions, please first refer to our FC rules and our guidelines for the application and trial process. If you have anything further to ask, feel free to post here or privately contact me on guildwork.
