Greetings Dreamers,

We are three years old. Fucking three years! How the fuck are we able to keep up with each other? I honestly have no clue. But I want to congratulate the ancient players for being stupid enough to stick around and the new generation of players for giving these faggots a chance.

Dreamstate is a phenomenon in the private server community. We have accomplished a lot without burning ourselves out. We kept a good balance between stability and strength. We learned a lot from the past, but we have to keep learning and improving every day to keep this guild healthy. Therefore I want to definitely thank the players that have been fulfilling leadership roles in the past, but also the Core raiders since they have been giving a good example to our new players. Do never underestimate the effect that an individual has on the well-being of a guild. Any guild. Even a guild like Dreamstate.

A little of time ago we switched from Emerald Dream to Nostalrius. This was a huge move. It took months to prepare. We lost a lot of our old crew due to having different interests as the guild. That is obviously acceptable and understandable. Everyone is free. Thanks to the support of players following the guild to Nostalrius we were able to revive our raid roster. The amazing raid roster that was slowly but surely going more and more in hibernation due to the lack of content on our previous server.

We left behind a load of amazing accomplishments and friends, therefore I want to give you a short review of what we have encountered in our journey to our three year existence. I can talk about this for days. People that met me on our guild meetings know this. Luckily I was not the only one that loves these stories so much.

The idea to start Dreamstate on Emerald Dream started around the 15th of August 2012. An original opening post was made on the 20th of August defining what we were planning to become. Multiple applications dropped in. A few great players like Basara & Kishkumen applied before the realm even went live. Some new recruits even made a custom website from scratch in the 5 days prior to the launch of Emerald Dream. Thanks to this initial great website we were able to attract a lot of great players like Thrash, Tatanka, Buiaka, Druss, Imfenion, Synergy, Confined, Zulg, Hanakanaka, Budge, Shariaph, Leska, Merai, Sixt, Uga, Moros, Manadour, Ogotai, Jakob, Srugath, Azi, Rik, .. Forgive me because I definitely forgot to mention many, but the list is simply too big. I still remember every single one of you. Thanks to you this guild has become what it is today.

We killed Ragnaros as first horde guild. We killed Onyxia as 2nd horde guild. We were booming. Improving week by week. We had numerous amazing world boss fights, we were competing with our biggest competition Team Plague. Battle strategy and diplomacy was required to get kills to the horde. Raid leaders like Thrash and analysts like Kishkumen stepped up.

After a while our guild was establishing ourselves as the biggest horde guild. Blackwing Lair was approaching and there was a lot of pressure on our shoulders to actually answer those expectations. We finished Blackwing Lair rather smoothly as first horde. Only a few server related bugs were slowing us down.

Zul’Gurub released about a half year later and we were able to get some serious farming going. During our first months we were doing about 6+ organised raids weekly. We were lucky to loot several Zulian Tigers and Razzashi Raptors. But after a while these raids became repetitive and in order to keep it entertaining for raiders we started doing speed runs and split raids. It allowed our raiders to really push their limits, but also to gear their alts and potentially discover a different class that they might enjoy or excel at. For our guild it meant that we were able to gear our new recruits a lot more quick but also discover if we might want to adjust raid setup for specific speedruns (8 fire mages ZG). One of the things I found most enjoyable was the 5man Onyxia we managed to do.

Things got tough when we did not get any new 40 man content for 2 years on Emerald Dream. We figured it was time to keep our eyes open to achieve our main goal. We want to kill Kel’Thuzad as a guild. We did not see this happening on our previous realm so when the opportunity of Nostalrius came along we had to check it out. We helped some with testing 40 man content to figure out if Nostalrius had the potential to be what we wanted. We took our time to figure that out. When Nostalrius was up and running for a few weeks we decided that it was time to change. It was a huge blow for Emerald Dream when the news got out. We succeeded at transferring our guild to a new project. We obviously recruited a lot of new players to give our guild new energy.

Due to partly our split focus during the start of Nostalrius we missed out on Molten Core progress. We will be ready for Blackwing Lair. We do our best to help Nostalrius script a working Blackwing Lair for the community. So far we did some speedruns, but our main accomplishment is stability. We are able to triple split Onyxia without any issues and we clear Molten Core twice every week to prepare our raiders for more extensive raiding when more content arrives.

Throughout the years the community has grown and bonded to the point where playing the game was no longer enough. Dreamstate has hosted two guild meetings so far - the first took place in Salzburg in September 2014. Below you can see a video from the meeting featuring Budge(hosting the meeting), Don, Srugath, Manadour, Netherfrost.

In May 2015 the guild embarked upon its second meeting. This time the destination was a bit more tropical - the island of Malta. Don, Kishkumen, Madhatter, Rik, Hasulol, Seuche and Percaso paid a visit to Srugath and his girlfriend for a week of fun and shenanigans. Nobody was sober enough to record a video, but we did manage to snap a few pictures in between the refills:

We have always striven to do something memorable for our anniversaries. Our Nostalrius roster is still new and fresh and many people don’t know each other so we need to bring people closer together. We have decided that the best way to do this is by hosting a Karaoke Raid. It is something that has never been done in our guild’s history and we are eager to see everyone’s participation.

We wish you all a happy anniversary and hope you enjoy your time in Dreamstate for many years to come!
