GRO are a collection of players who have roots going all the way back to the Everquest days. While most of us have played with various guilds over wow's lifespan, Classic 2019 was treated as a reunion of sorts for a lot of us and we've been going strong throughout the entire classic era. With Wrath coming to a close, the guild decided to move to SOD full time; however, due to Phase 3 lasting for a milennia and TWW dropping right at the start of the raid tier, we've found ourselves in the unfortunate position of requiring some fresh blood to keep us moving into the next phases.
Our core is comprised of players who have played in various high-end guilds thoughout the years, with a fair number of us having several regional "firsts" in prior raid tiers throughout Vanilla, TBC and Wrath. While we certainly wouldn't describe ourselves as "hardcore" these days, we're still a dedicated bunch who aim to pump every raid night and get content cleared quickly and efficiently (without necessarily going through the stress of a speed run). We'd describe ourselves somewhere in the middle between "casual" and "hardcore"; we're "get everything cleared in one night each week" kind of guild where we have an expectation that you come fully consumed/world buffed and will play more than competently, but we're not expecting that every player is gonna push for a 99 on every single encounter every single night. At the end of the day, we are here to have fun with each other and enjoy the time we spend together as a guild.
We presently raid on Tuesdays from 6 to 9 PM server, but also run a world boss/Ony on Sundays at the same time. With word that BWL is going to be a flex raid, we are welcoming of more than just individual players, but any groups who are looking for a new home. For the long-term health of the guild going into future phases, we're definitely interested in absorbing any and all talented players looking to raid with a new family.
