TBC Anniversary guilds raiding SSC / Tempest Keep

Looking for a SSC / Tempest Keep guild?

These are the guilds raiding SSC / Tempest Keep now, which is the filter that matters most if you are looking for a guild at your own point in the tier — joining a roster four bosses behind you means farming content you have cleared, and joining one four ahead means sitting out progression. The ones looking for members are marked.

Looking for members?

If you run a guild and you are looking for players, claim its listing and tick Recruiting now. It then appears in the list of guilds looking for members and under every class and spec you are short of — beside progression and raid times read from your own logs, which persuades an applicant rather better than a trade-chat macro. It is free, and it switches itself off when you stop, so you are never advertising a roster you have already filled.

How this directory is built

Guilds get here two ways, and neither is by asking. Most of the 1,113 listed were found in Warcraft Logs because they killed a boss on the TBC Anniversary realms; the rest were seen recruiting recently. Nobody submits a listing, so nobody can invent a guild or inflate its progression.

Everything here expires. A guild that stops logging stops showing as active, and a recruitment note disappears once the advert stops being heard. Nothing on this page is a post somebody forgot to take down two years ago.

A guild that advertises but never uploads logs is still listed, marked no logs. Plenty of guilds never log, and leaving them out would hide exactly the ones a new player is most likely to join — but the advert is all you get, and its page says so.

Casual, semi-hardcore or hardcore

A guild is given a pace from what its logs show — how far into the current tier it has got, and how its kill times compare to every other guild killing the same bosses. Nobody picks their own label, so "hardcore" here means a full clear at speed rather than an ambition. Where a guild has claimed its listing, its own description is shown next to the measured one; when the two disagree, that is worth knowing before you apply.

Plenty of guilds show no pace at all, and that is deliberate. A guild reaches this directory either through the rankings — which carry its best pulls and none of its wipes — or by us reading its actual logs. Only the second is a fair sample, so pace waits for it. Until then the listing shows what we can stand behind: progression, raid nights, kill counts and recent logs.

Dad guilds are self-identified, not inferred. Adults with jobs and bedtimes, a relaxed attendance policy, and usually a late start — but the only honest way to know is for the guild to say so. A measured late start filter sits next to it for guilds that begin at least forty-five minutes after the typical guild in their region.

What you can filter on

Raid days in your own timezone. A raid that starts at 19:00 US Eastern is already Wednesday in UTC, so a directory that filters on the log's own clock gives you the wrong day. Pick the nights you are free and the times shown shift to where you live.

Progression that means something. Bosses down per raid, counted from distinct kills — a guild that killed Hydross eleven times has one boss down, not eleven. Filter to Karazhan, Gruul / Magtheridon, SSC / Tempest Keep, Black Temple / Hyjal and a minimum boss count to find people at your pace.

Realm and faction. Alliance or Horde, and every realm with guilds that log — the realm list is built from the data, so it never offers you a filter that returns nothing.

Read the logs before you apply

Every guild page lists that guild's recent kills, and each one opens in the log auditor. Before you transfer a character or spend a week trialling, you can see how long their pulls take, how many people die, and whether the raid turns up enchanted and flasked. That is a better read on a guild than any recruitment post.

Is your guild missing?

Warcraft Logs only ranks the thousand fastest kills of each boss, so a guild that clears content steadily rather than quickly can be absent from the rankings entirely. Those guilds are added from their own uploaded reports instead — if yours is missing, it can be pulled in directly from the logs your raid already uploads. Guilds that do not log at all turn up when they advertise.
