A few of the older members of Prestige have moved to Mal’Ganis as Horde. The guild is now named Outsiders…because that’s what we are over there!

After the sad and unfortunate mass exodus of players from LH, leaving the server a near ghost town, we decided that if we are going to play in the upcoming expansion, it would be in smaller 10 mans on the Horde side, just to freshen things up a bit. We chose a very high population server to leave others plenty to do in case they decide they wanted to do 25′s elsewhere. Higher population may be annoying at times, but it leaves players with a lot of opportunity that was sadly missing from LH.

I will always remember our time on LH with many of you past and present…we had some good times together, never forget that.

Now known as Immortal the Immortal – Mal’Ganis/Horde

Prestige is currently (temporarily) closed.

For now, we can be found roaming the galaxy of Star Wars: The Old Republic.  WoW was a great time for us all…we played together for many years, but at this point, we feel that were hanging on to the game only because of the memories of how it once was…not how it is.

We can be found on the server Bondar Crystal, Republic side.  A new galaxy requires our help…we saved Azeroth more times than can be counted…and maybe we will again someday.  But until then…

We’ll see you…out there.

The nights are growing longer…and colder…and do we know what that means?!

It means it’s the season of WoW, and it’s arrived just in time…because Prestige has arrived, too!

It’s safe to say that as of now, Prestige is up and running as a 25 wo/man raiding guild again, and we are nearly at full strength!  I know…it’s awesome, but our recruitment job isn’t quite over yet.  As you can see by our handy dandy little side panel here (look that way –>), we have a few remaining spots open on our roster, so if you know someone with some skill that can fill in, let us know!

As we prepare for the imminent arrival of Deathwing, proper raid reviews will be taking place in the days/weeks to come in order to assure the survival of Azeroth.  I mean, he fucked up the gates of Stormwind (and apparently did some other heinous shit, but our primary concern is that he fucked up the gates), so now he’s gotta pay the price.  This means we not only need serious raiders that will show up on time and consistently, but it also means we need raiders that care about what they’re doing, and take pride in whatever job it is they’re assigned.  I.E. If you’re job is to interrupt a bitch, be the best damn bitch interrupter there is.  If you’re job is to heal a bitch, do that…keep that bitch alive!  And of course, if your job is to choke a bitch…choke that bitch like Wayne Brady would.

In short, earn your spot, they won’t be given to you simply because you know someone that’s been in the guild for years.  Don’t worry about what someone says about you because they want their friend to raid instead of you, it’s not up to them.  If you’re doing everything you should be doing, and doing it better than X, Y or Z’s friend…you’ll be the one raiding with us.  Period.

And with that…Prestige lives again.

Just as you knew we would.

Getting the band back together…

Prestige has a long running history on US/Lightninghoof, dating back to the beginning of The Burning Crusade.  Before that, under a different name, many of the founders of Prestige raided on US/Darkspear under the guild name Prey.  Over time, the game changed, our lives changed, and how we raid/play this game has changed.  Needless to say, we learned a lot about ourselves and the people that play this game, both positive and negative.  I’m sure this applies to many of you, including those that know nothing of our history or guild in general.

Shortly after the release of Cataclysm, Prestige started 25M raids on BoT/BWD/TOT4W to moderate success.  Soon after, the guild hit a bump in the road when a few of it’s main officers had drastic changes occur in their lives and needed to take some much needed time off/away from the game.  While this wasn’t handled perfectly, time went on on and many of those involved moved on.  We wish them the best, regardless of who they are/were.

Recently, a few of us decided that things in our lives have cooled down enough to begin reconstructing the ruins of Prestige back into a solid 25M raiding guild.

Our efforts are underway…

Our current target date to begin 25M raids is the week of Sept 19th.

The reason for this is simple, we need to recruit the proper class representation/mix required for a successful raiding experience, and until we have that, we will not begin 25M raids.  Our goal is to achieve maximum success without the repeated and often simple mistakes of the past that have held us (and other guilds) back from progressing.  Leading up to that, we will run 10M raids and begin evaluating people based strictly on their current performance and reliability, not who they know, what they claim to know or what they’ve done in the past.  Also, if we acquire enough members before that date, we will begin 25M raids sooner than expected and evaluate people in a 25M setting.

We are looking for mature players that understand the basic point of the game (so many people do not), both simple and complex raid mechanics, and understand that while acquiring gear is an excellent short term personal goal, the most important goal is seeing success through end game content together, as a guild.  Anyone with any sort of past experience understands that most gear comes easy in raiding guilds…and in a month or two needs to be replaced, so don’t make your time in this game strictly about gear.  Whether you PVE or PVP, the point of this is to have fun and to find people you enjoy it with.  In the end, if your goal is to cause drama, you will be dealt with swiftly and directly.

Head over to our forums for more information…

After battling through the snowy cold of Northrend, enduring the long arduous path to the Lich King, Prestige stood victorious over the man once known as Arthas, the fallen king. A peace returned to the land, and the citizens of Azeroth rejoiced…once again. The celebration was grand in both it’s scale and lavishness, and the loyal soldiers beneath the Prestige banner stood proud. Those who were lost along the way will not be forgotten.

Needless to say, the celebration didn’t last long. A rumbling deep within the core of Azeroth sent the elemental guardians into a frenzy of mass confusion. The world was coming to an end! Panic ensued. The streets soon filled with naysayers and doomsayers, convincing the public that the Lich King was still alive, and Prestige had failed.

Sadly, this was something much…worse.

As the quakes grew stronger, the world had begun to change from the inside out, and without warning or prejudice, it happened. The Cataclysm. Azeroth as we knew it split asunder…and the destruction that spilled forth changed our world forever. Countless lives were lost in the destruction, and the skies burned red.

What sort of monster was responsible — or even capable — of this unspeakable catastrophe?

Despite wishing it away, many knew the answer. Witness the return of the Black Dragonflight. Aspect: Death. The one and only, Deathwing the Destroyer.

Soldiers of Prestige, pick up your sword, shield, bow or staff, and stand ready…for we have much work to do, and while the party may have been short lived, Azeroth needs us once again. We must fight to return our world to glory once again. I promise you this: The road will be long, and it will be hard…and I will not lie. Some of you will not make it to the end. Some will die…others will be left behind. Make no mistake, this is war. Right here, right now…we stand together, alive. Fight to stay that way. Understand that this could be our one chance to fight back before it’s too late…

Deathwing will pay for what he has done.

“If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the mighty one. Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.” -J. Robert Oppenheimer
