Starting today, August 4th, Ominous will begin to implement a new loot system, EPGP. Please download the following TWO add-ons: EPGP (dkp reloaded) and EPGPLootmaster.

For the next week or two we will be running SK lists and EPGP simultaneously, so we aren't disregarding the lists entirely. You will still be bidding on gear from SK, but we will be adding those Gear Points to your total; plus we will start rewarding Effort points. We hope this will allow for a smoother transition.

To understand EPGP better, please go to the follow blog article:
** also note that there are some things in the article listed as optional that we haven't decided if we will be doing it that way yet, but its still a great article that lays everything out in an easy to understand way.

We appreciate everyone bearing with us while we work out all the kinks in the new system.
If you have any questions, Seralyn will be available on Vent all day August 4th, or contact an officer in game.

Ominous was formed on May 7th, 2009. The goals of this guild are to excel at end game content, have a large member base, and also get all of our members into end game raiding content. We want a guild full of friends; people who treat each other with respect and decency. We want to have a place for hard-core raiders to progress through hard-mode content as well as letting casual raiders enjoy the game and progress at their own rate. Ominous strives to be drama free. Many of our core members have been through most of Ulduar. We're focusing on having 2 (yes 2) 25 man raids running and getting every member into raids as much as possible. 10 man runs are also set up to help fill the gaps, learn new content, and make sure everyone gets to raid.

Anyone can join Ominous. All you need is to have manners. You don't have to be a raider, maybe you just want to be in an active guild. Maybe you just like to PVP. We will rank you where we feel you belong and do everything we can to help you improve and keep progressing. This may mean you're not going to be in our #1 Ulduar group, that's ok! As your gear and skill improve, you will be ranked up accordingly, and the players you've been running with will also be improving. We want to build lasting relationships with all of our members.

If being part of something big, and having fun are important to you, we encourage you to apply to become a member of Ominous.
