To provide a safe space to play games with the people we love.
<In Good Company> is a guild aimed for any caliber of player, whether you’re new or a refugee from somewhere else, or simply tired of being alone in this world we call Azeroth. Our goal is to bring together people as they are. We all downloaded the same game, we all are human, and whether you’re putting in your +15 keystone, just hit 70 on your first toon, or wrapped up Cutting Edge for the 5th season in a row, we all log off the same at the end of night. We’ve created a hub where you can relax after work, before work, or even couch potato the day away, with the friends you have here. We are a casual guild with some more casually competitive players who want a break from the competitive stress and finally take a breather; The main goal is for everyone to have a good time!
We are currently a newly blossoming guild with KSM/KSH members who are here to run and push keys, as well as help those newer, or players who don’t know what a keystone font is! We all started somewhere, and we remember asking those same questions. <[In Good Company]> aims to be just that - good company to run alongside you in your keys of any caliper. To create a stress-free, and no judgement environment, while feeling comfortable to learn and grow with people you trust.
Our leaders have experience (and success) leading normal, heroic, and even mythic progression raids - so you’re in good hands! Our philosophy is that raiding ultimately is about getting together and forming a team to murder a boss with people you can trust and rely on, with friends; not a ball of stress when logging in before you even set foot inside the instance. As a part of the raid team, in return you are responsible for being the best you can be - that includes being respectful of your fellow teammates i.e. criticisms, time, etc, and being prepared i.e. consumables, rotation, etc. These are aspects we would consider baseline for members accepting a position in any guild team-based environment, however if there is concern or questions, any Company member is available for help!
Although we are absolutely a cross-faction guild, a majority of members lean to the Horde side.
