Dissent is a jig-saw of semi-casual, serious and ex-hardcore raiders who have a passion for clearing content, but are unwilling to sacrifice the other aspects of their life to do so.
The majority of our members are professional or studying adults with jobs, families and ‘real life’ commitments outside of WoW. Ultimately, Dissent is suited to the mature gamer. We believe that real life and progressive raiding can be balanced with impressive results.
We strive to clear as much content as possible within a light raiding schedule.
While progression and success are important to us, unlike many other guilds we endeavor to remain focused on the individual players that call Dissent home . We hope to monitor and develop their skills in a fashion that is non-hostile and supportive while still driving people to push themselves and their level of game play.
In the 3 years, Dissent has built an extremely strong, tight-knit and dedicated core of raiders. Any addition we make to our guild in the forthcoming expansion must gel with us on every level.
We are entering our 3rd expansion as a guild (how cool is that?) and excitement is really brewing! I hope you guys are enjoying your break but in a week MOP will be upon us! It is hard trying to please 35+ people, some will level very quickly and become bored waiting for everyone else and some people simply do not have the lifestyle (or desire) to grind out 5 levels in 48 ...
What a long, strange trip it's been... This is a long time coming, but I wanted the final Cata post to debut the website revamp. Actually that is a lie. Whenever I sat down to write this post I just got distracted working on the website. Anyways, Cata is coming to a close and we are ending the expansion with Dragonsoul fully cleared - and well before the ...
Now, while we can't claim that the kill was overly graceful or even remotely smooth, it was definitely one of the most memorable. When Blackhorn hit the deck he had a fair amount of cushioning on account of our dead-corpse matress. That's right, almost the entire raid was dead.
The last couple of weeks have seen some interesting times in <Dissent> and I've been long over-due catalogueing them here. Beware, it's a long post but I hope you take a moment to read it =) VERSE 1: Aero-dynamic Arrek (ninjapull remix) I'm going to start off with something positive and that is to congratulate Arrek on his legendary daggers! This was a positive little spark of fun in what ...
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na BATM-- ......maybe just a BAT! Last night it was a pleasure to be present for the completion of Naow's legendary daggers. Dissent is building up quite an arsenal of awesome legendary weapons and only the most bad-ass raiders amongst us possess them! Completing legendaries is always such a fun event - it gets the entire guild excited and really justifies why we spend as much time killing imaginary pixels ...
I can't help but wonder if the Blizzard Developers had old-school psychiatric treatment in mind when they designed this fight - hell knows that after a while we probably could have gone a few rounds of electro-shocks and ice-bath treatments! Of course like most women, Hagara was one stubborn lady and a tough nut to crack - this biatch would not die! This encounter required a whole lot of precision, ...
Dragonsoul is upon us! For the next few weeks the new encounters are going to challenge (and wipe) us while we learn the tricks and manouvers to defeat them. Hopefully everyone has done some reading on the new fights - I know many of you have jumped on the PTR in the last few weeks and that's awesome. For those of you that might need some prodding in the right ...
So this post isn't raid related or overly important, but I thought I would share a little WoW secret and some screenshots with the guild. So, I read about this 'wow secret' faerie garden on a blog last week and thought it was really lovely. I've always been a fan of the darter sprites in the game and while I'm not a huge lore buff, I always find it cool ...
