Application - Mirieleth (Reply Sun Nov 13)

1. What is the name, class and level of your main character on Pyrewood Village, the one with which you wish to join Nighthaven? (This info is needed so we can process your application - and if you have a preferred nickname you may add it in parenthesis: e.g. Moonböw (Moon) or Stargazer (Eric)

Mainly over the weekend and in the afternoon on my day off during the week (no set day for this but often a Monday or a Wednesday at the minute). Occasionally in the evening on weekdays, from around 8/9pm. I'm based in the UK so GMT time zone.


I've never played Wrath before so it's all new to me, so looking forward to exploring new zones and doing new quests. I'm a slow leveller and like to enjoy the content. I like to read the quests to know why I'm off to kill/gather whatever. I really dislike the rush mentality of getting through dungeons and content as fast as possible. Honestly this just stresses me out and often why I avoid doing dungeons and such. Questing in Northrend so far has highlighted for me my niche playstyle. Do I want to go to raids to "do the content" and "clear it all"? No. Do I want to go to a raid because I heard a nameless voice whisper to me whilst I was questing? You bet I do! Do I want to spend hours grinding the same dungeon on repeat to get pre-BIS drops? I'm already bored. But will I spend hours at a time grinding a single mob to get a rare pet drop? Absolutely.

No goals really. I just want to to take my time and play through the new zones and enjoy this new content. And hoping to find a good group of people to enjoy it with.

Nearly every guild out there that I see is focused on end content, how often they raid and what classes they need to complete their rosters, with the occasional afterthought of taking on a few social members. That's not for me. You seem to be focused on creating a solid community environment where players of any level, class and playstyle is accepted and welcomed and valued. That is what I'm looking for. I want to make friends here. A place where I can do dungeons and feel comfortable and find it enjoyable rather than a stressful rushed experience.

I'd like to think I'm a friendly person and am willing to help fellow guildies with anything if I am able to. I may be on the quieter side to begin with as I can be quite shy until I get to know people better. But once I feel comfortable with people I'm much more open and chatty. I'm expecting to find a place that will make me feel welcome and will have patience and be willing to teach in group content rather than just expecting everyone to know everything about every boss in every dungeon etc.

I do not.


I've spent most of my time playing this game without a guild due to not finding the right fit. The first guild I was in was just because my other half was a member, but they were primarily a raiding guild, so I was a fairly silent member really. A few years ago I found a guild focused on the social aspect, but it was struggling with members and disbanded barely a few months after I joined. I don't want to be in a guild just for the sake of it, which is why I've been guildless for so long. I want to find a community that I can enjoy being a part of, and I think Nighthaven might be just that.
