Best Practices

Template Design:
  • Keep role counts reasonable (8-12 for most raids)
  • Use clear role names (“Storm 1” not “S1”)
  • Group related roles together (Vanguard, Support, etc.)
  • Use consistent emoji styles (all numbered or all custom)
Naming:
  • Be descriptive (“Dragonspyre Raid” not “DS”)
  • Include strategy if relevant (“DS - Triple Storm”)
  • Avoid special characters that break formatting
Custom Emojis:
  • Upload school emojis to your server
  • Use \:emoji: in Discord to get the ID
  • Format: <:Name:1234567890>
