    Imo, the guild leader is a ***, if it's me I'll leave the guild immediately, they'll probably be happy cos they probably think your dps is too low. If you got a higher test result, they won't even want further proof.
    If you want to have fun and enjoy your life and game, leave the toxicity guild out, there're plenty of other amazing people you can discover.

    But video proof of me beating the time lol .... To me it's like a punch in the face when he was like still need the test when it's right there

    My guess is he / she just wants to see you do the test in person. I personally think dummy tests are a waste of time but whatever.

    No troll. His guild, his rules. And they probably want a witness while you do it.

    But if it's me, I would take video proof any day, it saves me time and easier.

    You are joining his group, so he is the one to make the rules. Don't like them, don't join.

    Simple as that.

    Well, your guild is better than mine, my trial guild when I asked for a dps test, they just make fun of me, none of the guild member would take me seriously, and just make fun of me. I'm sick of it.
    They've no idea I'm actually stormproof and done all trials and vet all the time, and at least 5 plus pug dungeons everyday.

    Guilds ive been in on pc offer training runs. Like. They legit teach you and help you from the ground up, even as far as offering build ideas and skill rotations if you are having trouble. Not "beat this test, then maybe you can run with us".

    Guilds are about helping each other grow in game. Seems like this guild might have forgotten that.

    Maybe just maybe he wants to make sure it's really you running it I mean it's great you have a video of it but at the same time some ppl don't know how to run a good DPS build and they let there friends get on there account and runt hinges for them like VMA and things like that. We where running VMAW the other day and have a CP 600 running it doing light attacks to trigger kena with his bow and he even had a flawless title on his toon and said he's never ran maelstrom before that his buddy got it for him so maybe there just checking things out.

    And this is why PVE grouping is the worst!

    I've been in roughly 80 bajillion PVP groups, some with scrubs and some with the Emperor and everything in between. At no point has anyone ever tried to pull anything even remotely close to this.

    Sounds a lot like my guild. For all of our dps tests we have to have an officer present for the test. Regardless of video proof those are the rules we have and run across the board for everyone. We have a persin who does 38k dps test on video using ult. Still had to do a dps test with an officer.

    The dps test itself is low and shows us you know a rotation. 20 or 21k on rotation only is really low and the bare minimum to make the group as it is ..

    Why would anyone bring you to a raid without doing a DPS test? Vet Trials aren't a face-roll. No one wants to go die over and over again for hours on end because the group doesn't have enough DPS to complete the content.

    I'm an original member of my raid guild, an officer and a core raid team member, and I am required to update my DPS test bi-weekly in the presence of another officer. Just like everyone else.

    IMO you are being ridiculous and, frankly, childish. Sorry if that offends you, but if the guild has rules about how "official" DPS tests are to be conducted, then those are the rules. It takes a couple of minutes to do a DPS test, so why not just do it? Sounds like you're dodging it.

    And FYI for those in this thread that think raid guilds that require DPS tests are "elitist": the reason my guild requires in-person DPS tests is that we want to help. We want to stand next to you and watch you so that we can make suggestions and help you improve. Maybe you're missing frag procs. Maybe you've got downtime on Blockade. Maybe you're recasting Curse to soon. Maybe you could do a better job swapping out of a skill. And so on, and so forth. It's a lot easier to see that stuff if I can stand in front of you and watch you hit the skeleton for 15 minutes than it is in a video.

    They have one way to do the test just follow it if you want to join them for vet trial, they will likely ask some dedicated people to witness it. that's the usual way

    Looks like your lucky to be in a guild that only requires 20k dps for vet progression. Most guilds require a minimum of 30k

    20k buffed dps doesn't sound like an elitist requirement (my best record was around that before morrowind)
    i aint in any proper trial guild myself, but i think if your guild enforces a reasonable dps test and you and your other guildmates all manage to pass the test as specified, i assume your trial runs are going to be very smooth

    the alternative is to PUG vet trials lol

    >they would give me a first set of gear and everyone is pretty social.

    >20k dps for a progression group

    Such an evil, elitst guild! How dare they set requirements for their progression group! Its obvious theyre trolling you, OP. :D

    Seriously though, this forum is absolutely insane. People start freaking out as soon as they hear something about "group requirements" and "dps tests". I understand that progressive raiding is not for everyone, but for Azura's sake, everyone has a right to play as they want. Their group = their rules, simple as that, and there's plenty of guilds that dont have any requirements or rules. And I would love to watch a stream of a play-as-you-want progression group. :D

    I mean, you said Ulti wasn't allowed, but you used 2 of them. That's why he wants you to test in person. Besides, 20k is far from an elitist requirement, despite how some in this thread are reacting to it.

    yes, I would leave too. screw them.

    there are plenty of guilds, which are social, at least 400+ active players, mature, non-elitist, relaxed, no mandatory gold fees, etc...

    just search the section of the forum "guild recruitment", find your guild and write them to invite you


    some people take this game too serious :smiley: , ignore list is for them
