about us
What is Megalomania?
We are a guild that aims for having a good guild atmosphere and at the same time getting as much progression as we can get out of our raids. We want people to enjoy their raids as good as they enjoy the guild-community and not be another raiding guild where people’s vocabulary are restricted to “hi”, “I need that item” and “thanks for the raid, goodbye”.
We personally take a serious attitude towards raiding, however we raid only 2 to 3 days in a week, depending on progress. We aim to set up our raids to get the best possible chance on un-killed bosses, while giving our more casual people a chance to raid when we have defeated those bosses.
Although I wish to stress that we are not a hardcore guild. We do want to get as much of raiding experience as possible and excel as most as possible, but not at the cost of our personal lives.
We also welcome inexperienced players in our guild to help and “train” them so that they become contributing members in our guild. We have no problem explaining tactics and answering questions, no matter what those questions are. We are very aware and sadden about the fact that some guilds only look at experience and gear, rather than to look at the gaming skills of that person and help him become experienced.
However we do expect that our members that wish to raid to show commitment to our guild, willing and able to learn, contribute to the guild as a whole and not to be a complete idiot.
Our history
Megalomania was formed on the 22nd of august of 2010 on Trollbane by a leader-team of real life friends and that later went to two swedish twins. In legion however, the leadership was shifted to a group of 3 brothers and a few capable officers that ran the guild in the absence of the swedish twins. The twins returned in Shadowlands and have started raiding seriously again - along with the 3 previous brothers.
We've raided through the last few months of WotLK and the beginning of cataclysm. When we returned to Trollbane, our lovely server had transformed into a ghost town. A few months fast forward and we're on Stormscale, getting our guild back together.
In Cataclysm we raided all raids. At the end of expansion we were 6/8HC on Dragon Soul.
In MoP we have cleared MSV HC, HoF HC, ToES HC, and was working on ToT HC 11/13 and SoO Mythic 8/14.
In WoD, we have cleared all the current content there, but left HFC with 11/13 M.
In Legion, and under the new management, we have managed to clear 7/7M (Pre-NH), 2/3M, 8/10M, 6/9M and 11/11M.
In BfA, we are 4/8M so far and climbing.
Now in Shadowlands, we are 10/10 Normal and 10/10 Heroic and 2/10 Mythic in Castle Nathria.
