Rewarding

Since the Staff in the ToR Guild sometimes might not be able to run the flashpoints, PvP warzones, World Boss downings, or operations with members, there is a simple way for members to still earn CF's. Members need to have at least 2 people from the actual DJB site, to qualify. A screenshot of the flashpoint quest complete box, the warzone scoreboard at the end of the scoreboard, or a group photo of the members who took down the world boss where everyone are next to each other, must be taken, and then submit it to the form on your admin menu.

Pendants of Blood

The Fist and his staff awards Pendants of Blood as well. You can get a Pendant of Blood by leveling a character to 50 or by earning a server/guild first. To request these, there is an option for that through the admin menu. Screenshots are required for your max level character.

Chat

The lifeblood of communication for the DJB's movements through The Old Republic galaxy will mainly be from the guild chat in the game but there are other places as well.

TeamSpeak 3

Members will use this service for Operations, Flashpoints, and PVP activities. Its highly suggested that all members use this service.

If you are having issues running the game and Teamspeak at the same time and you can not talk while in The Old Republic, run your Teamspeak client as administrator.

Current Information - DJB Voice Server

General Raid Rules

  • Show up with repaired gear and stims
  • Be on Teamspeak
  • Don't go AFK during boss fights

  • Bio-break before the raid begins
  • Don't be a dick
  • All decisions by the Raid Leader of the group can only to be overturned by the main Raid Leader, the Praetor to the Fist, and/or the Fist of the Brotherhood

Loot Rules

These rules are designed for newer members joining a raid group, or a highly geared team joining another eight players to down the 16 man raids.

  • If a heavily geared member that is short by three or less pieces of top-tier gear for a full set agrees to help gear newer raiders through raid attendance, the geared member will be permitted a pre-raid assignment of a single specific drop. Newer raiders will roll on all other class drops, from which the geared member will refrain from rolling.
  • All pre-raid drop assignments will be announced before the start of the raid.
  • Pre-raid drop assignments will be limited to one drop per person per raid lockout.
  • Nothing prohibits the geared member that obtains a pre-raid drop assignment from rolling on off-spec and companion rolls.
  • These rules apply only to the highest-level tier in-game.
  • Raid leader will keep a tally on who has been receiving tokens of gear.


Note: These rules are for raids that are DJB only. In pick up raids it is highly encouraged that you roll for all loot either through the need (if you need it) or greed (if you don't need it but you like the look or want some extra money) options, or use master looter and everyone rolls for the loot if they need it or roll for if they want it for money.
