Zulian Cartel

Schedule (site updated 6/7/20)

Our weekend raids are scheduled early in the day (4pm) so guild members can PUG a group for MC/BWL (there's many of them running almost every night of the week). Other than Onyxia, we won't be organizing guild 40 mans until AQ40.

We are recruiting! Please contact an officer to discuss joining Zulian Cartel.

1 - Invites are "first come, first invite". Log into the game early and be in STV if you want to make sure you get a spot in the raid. 

2 - We use Ventrilo 3 for communication. The goal of voice software is to communicate during a raid. Period. A paid Ventrilo server provides the clearest form of voice communication (meaning "no lag and/or general game conflicts"). We will not be switching to any other form of voice communication. Ventrilo server information is posted in the Guild Information section in game.

3 - Our raid goals are to gear our main toons (and some alts) through Zul Gurub and to get as many people as possible to exalted with Zandalar. From there, we go to The Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj (20 man) and then Temple of Anh'Qiraj (40 man) (after AQ40 we go to Naxxramas, but that's a long ways off). I deliberately scheduled the weekend raid times at 4pm Sat/Sun to allow players to pug an MC and/or BWL in the evenings on weekends. It's understandable that players would be interested in seeing that content and to get some of that gear. (Keep in mind, to get a full set of gear from MC/BWL would take at least 6 months of dedicated raiding.) Our progression schedule:  Zul Gurub -- > AQ20 -- > AQ40 -- > Naxxramas

4 - Tanks and Healers will always have some priority on raid loot. If you are scheduled as a tank or healer on raid nights, please remember that 19 other people are depending on you to show up! If you are incapable of committing your healer or tank to specific raid times, you must let Glendor / DrGlendor know ASAP and I will remove your character from that committed time slot. Note: we will not give gear to uncommitted tanks or healers.

Those are the basic raid guidelines for Zulian Cartel. If any member of our guild tells you differently, please let Glendor or Thedious or Lonneger know which player is advising you of counter information. 

Why is loot restricted to certain classes? "highest and best use" is the general rule for loot. The goal is to strengthen the raid as quickly as possible. An example of "highest and best use" is  Mandokir's Sting has 37.5 DPS, +11 Agility, + 8 Stamina. While many rogues and warriors might want it because it boosts their agility/stamina by a few points, they won't be maximizing the use of the 37.5 DPS, which a Hunter would. So, "highest and best use" means Mandokir's Sting goes to any Hunter first if that weapon is an upgrade. Same rules apply for weapons such as Hakkari Warblades and others. 

I'm a Paladin and I can wear cloth! Why can't I roll on cloth gear? A pally has four options for gear: plate, mail, leather, and cloth. Priests have one: cloth. So, priests will always get first priority on cloth healing gear, as will Druids for leather healing gear. 

But I"m so special! Haven't you seen my DPS/Healing stats? I DESERVE gear before everyone else! If you share such an opinion, then please go back to Retail where welfare epics began. If you want gear in our raids, #1 you must attend the raid, and #2 you must win the roll against other people who can also roll on the item. 

Note: ZG resets every 3 days! Please park your toon at the instance or in Duskwood (please don't rely on summons!)
