Venture Company / Horde

[othercourt]

So, myself and two of the playtest team try to get together Sunday nights, and some late night earlier parts of the week. Anyone else on this server, Horde-side?

Nerds...

But... Shadow Priests are fun....

I sold my account (which is fine since I had a permanent ban from the WoW main forums --- long story) a couple of weeks ago, but I might be up for rebuying the game this winter if the GF's schooling eats up as much time as it did last year... If I do, who wants to recruit me?

[othercourt]

Well, it's literally just me, Phaedrus, and ML.

We have characters that we only use on Sunday nights (group night), and have others that we dabble around with. But for players in the guild, it's just us 3.

So, yeah, not much coming up in the way of "serious raiding" or anything. But, you know, the more, the merrier, and if we eventually had enough players to fill out a solid 5-man group, we could munch all over a lot of the smaller instances.

From the sounds of things, no one is interested in recruiting people we don't know... so the most we'd ever have in the guild is maybe 10.

No, they have this "Recruit A Friend" thing. Check it out: http://us.blizzard.com/support/article. ... leId=20588

Holy crap.

When did they make this change?

"How can I earn the exclusive in-game mount?
For each person you refer who upgrades to a retail version of World of Warcraft and purchases two months of game time, you will be able to give a character on the account you sent the invitation from an exclusive in-game zhevra mount. This unique mount can be claimed through the website, is only available to Recruit-A-Friend participants, and can only be applied to a single character.

What in-game benefits do we get while the accounts we play are linked?
1. Characters on both accounts can summon each other once per hour.
2. While adventuring with your linked friend/family member, you will each gain triple experience.
3. For every two levels the new player earns, the new player can grant one free level-up to a lower-level character played by the veteran player."

We'll have to discuss which characters we've got would be the best to have the benefits applied to. Especially the summoning bit.

I'd definitely be up for doing the recruit, but if othercourt wants it, I think he's got dibs.

[othercourt]

Actually, considering our playing habits, I think that Phaedrus should be the one to do the recruit. He's on more than I am, and even on Sunday nights, he's on earlier than I am. You two would be able to make more use of the befits than I'd be able to add.

Phaedrus would also be better in helping a new character level up quickly, considering the plethora of alts he has...

For the "Group," we've got a Hunter, Druid, and Tank (Prot).

What do we want to add?

Phaedrus, is your Druid Resto?

[phaedrus]

Nope, balance I think. I can't remember offhand. I'll get the invite off to ees though. Sadly, the coolest bonuses are only good for the first 3 months.
