Recruitment Open!
Southern Wardens, an Australian/New Zealand PvE raiding guild, are looking to recruit the following:
Healers: 1+
Warlocks: 1
We may also accept exceptional players from any other class.
We are currently working on progressing through Tier 5 content. We’re currently at 4/6 SSC, 3/4 TK. See this guild blog for details of our recent kills.
Our current raid schedule is:
- Wednesday: 7:30 – 10:30 AEST (8:30-11:30 AEDT; 01:30-04:30 server time)
- Thursday: currently free, may have new raids implemented in future
- Sunday: 7:00 – 10:30 AEST (8:00-11:30 AEDT; 01:00-04:30 server time)
- Monday: 7:00 – 10:30 AEST (8:00-11:30 AEDT; 01:00-04:30 server time)
The official guild raids are currently aimed at 25-man raid zones; 10-mans are often organised on a semi-casual basis on weekends.
We are a friendly guild with a raiding focus. In other words, we raid regularly but we like to have fun doing it. We are looking for dedicated raiders who are interested in progressing through 25-man content. Raiders are expected to attend 75% of our scheduled raids. Ideally we are interested in raiders who are fully Karazhan-geared, and supplemented by quality heroic/crafted gear.
If you’re interested in joining us, please follow these simple steps:
- Read our membership policy and raid schedule.
- Register at our forums and send a PM to Siha to ask for posting access. (This is an anti-spam measure, unfortunately.)
- Post a message in the recruitment forum, using the template and other applications as a guide for the information we need to know, telling us a bit about you and anything you feel we should know.
- Contact Sailan or Alinden, or another of the officers in-game to discuss your application.
We look forward to hearing from you.
We are still, as always, open to new casual members who are friends or family of existing Wardens. If that applies to you, please ask your friend or relative in SW to get in touch with one of the officers.

Two progression posts for the price of one!
Last week it was Morogrim Tidewalker – first attempt saw him down to 24%, second attempt saw him dead.

And this week it was Leotheras the Blind. Leo took a bit more work than some of the other Serpentshrine bosses, and we had some very near-successes in early attempts, but we finally pulled it all together last night to get him dead.

That puts Southern Wardens at 4/6 SSC 3/4 TK. Not bad for less than two months’ work!

With Al’ar dead and buried, heading on to say hello to Solarian was an offer we just couldn’t refuse. Monday night saw us encounter her for the first time, and what a fight! She and Al’ar are chalk and cheese – Solarian’s a fast-paced encounter with hair-trigger timing, and I think probably my favourite of the TBC bosses I’ve seen so far.

Also, she’s dead easy and therefore easily deaded, which we achieved with ease after a few false starts involving people bombing the raid.
After Solarian, we were going to head off to Serpentshrine for a farm boss or two when someone happened to mention that Doomwalker was up, over in Shadowmoon Valley.
We strapped on our killing pants, and… well, I bet you can guess what came next.

Doomwalker was our eighth guild first in 41 days, and a fun way to round off a very successful week of raiding.
Next up, Tidewalker!

For a while there, we were starting to feel like Al’ar was cursed. Twice, the server went down for an hour or more, and even when we weren’t jinxed by mis-timed exclamations of optimism about server health, we were plagued with disconnects and lag woes.

Last night we overcame all of that to make Al’ar the Phoenix God our sixth new boss kill since Void Reaver in late January. Great work by all concerned, and congratulations to all on one of our most satisfying victories yet.
