Hey everyone!

 

I'm running raid events on Thursdays every other week and on Sundays every week. Thursday event starts 11am PST and Sunday event 9am PST. Recently I got question regarding if there could be raid event little bit later than in the morning time. As some of you may know, I live in EU, in Finland to be precise and that is 10 hour time difference to pacific so that makes things little bit challenging, but not impossible. 

So question is, would there be enough interest if there would be raid event happening on Fridays starting between 8 - 10pm PST. Event length would be standard 2 hours unless people are willing to run longer. Now this event wouldn't necessary happen every week. At most biweekly or maybe once a month.

 

Update:

So after first event, we discussed things little bit and gonna do some changes when event starts to accommodate also EST players. I will put suggestions here and I will ask this in guild chat too. Comment  on this thread, in-game message or mail to me or in Discord PM which time would be best for you on Friday (example 4pm PST or 4pm EST etc. something like that)

PST Friday

Starting time between 2pm - 8pm and event lasts 2hrs

for example 2 - 4pm or 3 - 5pm and so on. 

EST Friday

Starting time between 2pm - 8pm EST

for example 2 - 4pm or 3 - 5pm and so on. 

 

Raid builds

https://snowcrows.com/builds/

 

Raid Wings

We have been running with 2 healers. Most of the time Druid healers. Chronotank if it has been needed, otherwise Chronomancer has been there giving support and some dps. Rest has been split between Power and Condi DPS.

I would be interested for sure. I know a friend of mine who is in florida would be interested as well. I don't know if that late works for her. I planned on starting another thread for a time that works for her too but as far as this time on a biweekly or monthly basis I would be happy to jump in. Both my friend and I run druids with mine being a more healing build and hers a more dps support to compliment mine.

Mika,

Which raid boss will you be starting with for your March 30 event?   I have not done any raids for a year now (last ones were Samarog and Twisted Castle), so would have to study the guides.

Yeah we will start with escort as it is easiest raid encounter so that everyone who joins can tip their toes in raiding if they are completely new or haven't been raiding for long time and if we can successfully go through escort then we will try Cairn the Indomitable and maybe even Mursaat Overseer if we can kill Cairn. Those will be focus for couple of events so that we can see how many people are joining and what kind of compositions we can get.

The most important thing in life will always be the people around you. Salud, mi familia.

Hi Mika. I'm definitely interested. What's your expectation on gear? Is full Ascended per the snowcrows builds a hard requirement?

Use Snowcrows as a guideline towards the build you want to go. If you have ascended gear, that is great because it is optimal, but full exotic gear is just fine. Because gear and build is only half the fight. To succeed you need to know boss mechanics, survive them and execute your role in raid group. 

Also if you don't have gear with completely correct stats, that is fine too as long as you are willing to work towards correct gear. Besides some people may be first comers to raids and want to see what it is all about and after attending for raid event decide that raids aren't content they want to play more so I don't want to people waste their resources on gear immediately. 

I'm trying to provide relaxed and friendly environment for everyone so they can see what raids are all about and hopefully after attending one event, they want to try more, because raids are fun. Sure they are end game PvE content and are quite hard and takes time to learn, but if you like challenge then raids are for you.
