Xakery, please don't feel down about Garuda. Good groups don't come together overnight. It takes a lot of work to put together a group that plays well together and can vie for firsts. Don't give up. If you really want to do this kind of thing, start working on that group now. Find people who click together and conquer everything in the game, then carry that on to the next patch. There is nothing unattainable about your goal if you put in the work to get there. Garuda may have come and gone but there's always more to come. Get ready for it.
