This is a mix of some Gaisciosch, Tuatha, and Nu Tir guild raiders in a new raid group led by Daphyd and some Nu Tir officers.

A few of you may have done some of my Saturday morning raid hunts and GSB runs while I was playing my "Tor" character in early '11.   You'll see some familiar faces in this group if you did.    While we had a RIFT raiding hiatus of over a year, we're back, and we brought about over 20 of our friends from WoW and SWTOR with us!

No particular guild affiliation is expected or required to participate.

Night Watch is a fairly cohesive group of friends who had previously played in WoW, many since 2005, and who have joined me in RIFT this summer.   We're looking toward finishing this expansion with as much raiding progress as we can, and have been running GSB and RoS as a group for since the end of July.  This is an experienced raiding group, with a focus on fun, companionship, and good progression.

Requirements

Appropriate gear for entry level HK (320 hit/focus/tou), general raid readiness,  and an enthusiasm for raiding are the only requirements.   The group needs a few more  "regular players", whom we hope to keep raiding with us into Storm Legion and beyond.

Having Teamspeak 3 installed and working is required.

 

 Raid Times

We're planning on starting Thursday nights 6:30 PST through 10:00 PST.   We also have a regular combined GSB/ROS run on Saturday 6:30-10 that you'd be welcome to attend.

Once we have a solid group, we'll be extending the HK runs to Saturday nights as well.

Raiders who are posted as slotted or on standby are expected to check in with me (Daphyd) by 6:15 PM on raid days.

Loot Rules:

Our group uses a version of the "Shroud" loot system, with a fresh points pool beginning with our 9/20/12 raid.     We will fully explain this system on TS with raiders who are brought into the group.   In addition, you can read our loot rules in detail and sign up on our points calculator and slotting calendar by registering at Nutir.guildportal.com.   On your registration, indicate you are a Gaiscioch or Tuatha member for immediate approval.

 

Signing up

You may sign up for this run either by registering at the site above or by signing up on the Gaisciosch event calendar and posting your interest in this thread.

Detailed Loot rules: Though these may appear a bit complex, the rules are quite simple in action, and represent a set of rules we've been utilizing for raiding since 2006. We'll thoroughly explain and assist folks with any rules questions during the raid. Here's a copy of our current loot and raid participation rules: Ver 1.1r Night Watch Rules and Points (RIFT) I: General Z'code is the core of what's expected in all NW and guild activity, and outline what's expected in general Z'rules are 3) No Lameness 2) No Drama 1) Have Fun Show up on time. Remember other folks are waiting for you. Check in 15 minutes before the raid. If you haven't checked in 10 minutes before scheduled start, you may be replaced by a standby player. If anyone thinks another person has broken Z'code or Z'rules, and they can't let it pass without having hard feelings about it, then that person should talk to the other person about it and try to work things out together as soon as they can. If they can't work it out or decide to let it pass, they should ask some of their friends to come into the discussion to help. If that doesn't work, they can ask officers to come into the discussion to help work things out. If all that doesn't resolve things, then we'd again ask people if they can forgive and let it pass in the interest of Z'rules or have fun and live well elsewhere. II. Shroud Loot System. Night Watch uses a Shroud Loot System on all runs that are posted as "Points" runs on our calendar. All bids are done via tell to the designated loot master for the bid. Shroud Bids cost half your points or a minimum of 10, highest wins. 10 points are required to bid shroud. In the case of a tie, Roll to determine a winner. Standard bids cost 10 points. Roll procedure determines the winner Save bids cost 10 points. Roll to determine the winner Shrouds beat Standards which beat Saves. Bid type determines interest level. A bidder may choose to pass their priority before loot is awarded; in which case, the item is awarded to the next-highest bidder. There is no minimum point requirement to bid standard or save, however negative point totals are reset to 0 immediately following any purchase III. Loot Process A. Loot Drops. When an item drops that is appropriate to be bid on, the loot master will link the item in Raid and call for whisper bids to be made. Anyone interested in the item(s) should whisper the loot master with their level of interest (Save, Standard, or Shroud) at this time. B. Bidding Period. The loot master will announce when the bidding period is closing. Once bids are closed, the loot master will look through the list of tells for the person with the highest bid level. C. Shroud Bids. If there are Shroud bids, the loot master will check point totals of all Shroud bidders, and assign the item to the person with the highest point total. D. Standard Bids. If the highest bid is a Standard, Roll to determine the winner at that time. E. Save Bids. If the highest bid is a Save bid, Roll to determine the winner. F. No Competitors. If there is only one bid of a given type and that would win the bid, no roll is needed. If the winning bid is a Shroud bid, but no other Shroud or Standard bids are made, the Shroud bidder is automatically downgraded to Standard. In the case of multiple items, if the total number of Shroud and Standard bids are equal to or fewer than the total number of items, all Shroud bids will be downgraded to Standard. Shroud is ONLY used in order to gain priority; if it is not necessary to gain priority for the item, the bid is downgraded. G. Winners. When announcing a winner, the loot master announces the roll type and point total (if shroud) and should give a brief window to allow for possible corrections or passes. Points Earning Points earning for a raid are based on time spent in the raid. Players are awarded four points per hour, rounded to the nearest minute. Night Watch uses these rules for all Tier 2 and above 20 man runs. Points are neither earned nor spent on runs which are posted as "non-points". Night Watch points are tracked in a points / calendar application located at NWATCH.ORG, also linked on the Nutir.guildportal.com website. When slotted, player will be encouraged to create and account and link their character name on this application. Slotted players may check and review their points at this site at any time.qqq

Our first run (9/20) went well, with just enough people to fill the raid. We'd love to bring in some additional regular players, to start with us until in HK in the expansion, and then to continue raiding in the expansion. Post here or PM me if you are interested!

Our Saturday run went very well. We got Prime down, putting us at 4/11, and had Sicaron to 14%. Not bad for 4 nights total of HK raiding :) It does look like we have 1 or 2 slots available this cycle. Sign up by posting here or registering at the site per the previous post (nutir.guildportal.com) See you folks in game!

We've continued to do pretty well, and have been filling the raid each week. If you want to check in as a standby in case we're not filled, send a tell to Daphyd at 6:15ish Server time before the Thursday run.. We also have a followup run Saturdays at the same time. Same process applies. :) See ya in game! Daph
