Warrior         0   0%

i'm assuming that there are people who haven't responded that will fill in some of the missing pieces, but we'll see how that works out in reality and adjust accordingly.

raid difficulty:

Code: Select all

Raid whenever you have time in whatever group is most convenient            5   23%
Raid consistently in a normal / heroic mode group and maybe some mythic     16  73%
Other                                                                       1   5%

raids per week:

Code: Select all

2   19  86%
3   3   14%

raid days available:

Code: Select all

Monday      12  55%
Tuesday     21  95%
Wednesday   18  82%
Thursday    21  95%
Friday      11  50%
Saturday    11  50%
Sunday      10  45%

it is safe to assume that we will continue with a tuesday / thursday schedule with the overall goal of getting aotc, and maybe checking out mythic if there is sufficient interest.

hours per raid:

Code: Select all

2       1   5%
2.5     11  50%
3       8   36%
Other   2   9%

it seems that switching to a two and a half hour raid was popular so it is likely that we will continue with that.

raid start time (pacific):

Code: Select all

1:00:00 AM  1   5%
8:00:00 AM  1   5%
3:00:00 PM  1   5%
4:00:00 PM  2   9%
6:00:00 PM  2   9%
7:00:00 PM  4   18%
7:30:00 PM  2   9%
8:00:00 PM  8   36%
8:45:00 PM  1   5%

raid end time (pacific):

Code: Select all

12:00:00 PM 1   5%
9:45:00 PM  1   5%
10:00:00 PM 1   5%
10:30:00 PM 7   32%
11:00:00 PM 8   36%
12:00:00 AM 2   9%
1:00:00 AM  1   5%
2:00:00 AM  1   5%

mental note: freedom of choice doesn't always produce useful results. based on this it seems that 8pm - 10:30pm should still work, but if there is interest in shifting things half an hour earlier we can try that.

mythic+ days available:

Monday      16  73%
Tuesday     9   41%
Wednesday   13  59%
Thursday    10  45%
Friday      10  45%
Saturday    15  68%
Sunday      20  91%

mythic+ start time (pacific):

9:45:00 PM      1   7%
10:00:00 PM     3   20%
10:30:00 PM     2   13%
11:00:00 PM     6   40%
12:00:00 AM     1   7%
1:00:00 AM      1   7%

sunday and monday are still the most popular days for mythic+ shenanigans, although saturday is a close third. it seems like a start time of 8ish and going until whenever will continue to be the case.

overall i think it likely that things will mostly be the same as dragonflight. if you have any questions, comments, suggestions, or feedback please feel free to share!
