From TouchFluffyTail:
For those looking to apply but are wary regarding a bench position, consider this:
As a guild going for firsts in all progression raiding categories, speed is essential. If a fight demands more of a certain class than another, we will need to make the necessary adjustments to best the encounter until average gear level becomes high enough where composition matters less.[*]You are earning just as much DKP as raiders who are doing the fight while you are free to level another class (given you have a way to swiftly enter the instance for the swap in).
In most cases, you will be top loot priority as soon as you step in on main raid as others will have already received loot.
You will automatically be next in line for primary raid position when the opportunity presents itself.
