02 / Get around the campfire
From first login
to first raid.
You don’t need to know everyone. Just know where to start—and how to show up for your local crew.
Bring good raid etiquette
Check the meeting point and lobby time. Ask before starting, make space for new trainers, and keep entrances and paths clear. Respect park hours and anyone who isn’t playing.
Give your meetup a rally point
The Ambassador Flyer Kit includes a printable text template with space for your meeting details and Campfire invite QR code. Add your own verified invite before sharing.
