In retrospect: Casual Fridays!

Hello everyone!

This is officially my first news article on the Paranoid website!
Very exciting stuff to talk about today.

A couple of months ago we held the big Paranoid Feedback Survey in which we asked everyone for their opinions regarding their time in Paranoid,
their experiences with raiding and also which side events everyone would love to do alongside the usual seasonal raid stuff.
The answers spoke for themselves: More casual/side activities!

Your feedback has led to the creation of Casual Friday raids and Sunday Social events.
For the time being I decided to pick up the Friday activities to see if we could create something weekly And fun… and fun it has been!

Casual Friday events

Every Friday evening (around 8pm server time) we set out on grand adventures in past expansions Raids in order to clear the Glory of the Raider achievements!
The main goal is to host this as stress free as possible so that everyone has a chance to get their long-awaited exclusive mounts that often require multiple people to obtain.
We decided to work our way backwards, starting at the Liberation of Undermine and moving down the raid tiers. Nerub-ar Palace? Done.  Amirdrassil? Done. Sepulcher of the First Ones? Done!
Last Friday we officially entered the Battle for Azeroth era and tackled Ny’alotha, which was also a great success.
Next run? A pool party / achievement hunt in the Eternal Palace.

I was honestly not a fan of doing achievements, they stress me out and I can get very spicy when things don’t work out as intended. The Casual Friday raids are honestly very enjoyable to me and I really enjoy hosting them for you. I’m looking forward to every Friday evening and work down the list of raids to overcome. See this blog-post as a thank you to everyone that has attended the Casual Friday raids in the past,
and a big warm welcoming hug for everyone that plans to join us during the upcoming months as we plow through each expansions big bad dungeons.

So, with season 2 around the corner..what’s next?

Well.. we still have a score to settle with Dimensius the All-Devouring in Manaforge Omega on Mythic difficulty. With new and improved gear this should be a lot easier for us to do with a smaller group.
We also have many many raids left to complete so we’re all good for the next months. Please look forward to it!

I’d like to end this with a request. We want to make these casual events as fun and calm for everyone.
If you have any wishes or requests with content that we should host or something other than raids (I am planning on setting up Glory of the Hero groups in the near future!) please let us know!
We’re super happy with your feedback. Your happiness and comfort means the world to us.

Well, better find my swimsuit and blow some air in my murloc floaties. There’s a pool party tomorrow! See you there. 😊

Kind regards,
Xer
