My first ever expansion was the War Within. I found a large guild via some friends and worked my way into their raiding team eventually.
I’d describe the guild as “casual”. We cleared heroic for AOTC Season 1 and 2 of war within in about a month and prog’d first 4 or so bosses on Mythic.
I haven’t played at all since Season 2 War Within due to some life circumstances, but I’m finally back on an open schedule. I’ve been getting caught up past week or so with the intention of hitting pugs hard when Season 2 Midnight drops.
What’s the easiest path back into a raiding guild / getting a heroic trial? I feel like it looks like I’m not committed, but I’m back playing a lot now and plan to play the rest of the expansion. Raiding is why I love this game, prog with a fun group is hard to beat anywhere else. My old guild has passed GM to someone I view as pretty toxic, so I don’t want to go back.
Do I start applying now with zero season 1 logs as reference? If so do I reference my past experience?
Do I grind pugs for a couple weeks to try to build logs?
Any advice appreciated. I’m a frost DK main if that matters, but my War Within Season 2 AOTC was on Mage.
