Thread: Important WILD Question

WILDing is very complex process and there is lot more to it than time of the attempt. As much as you don't want to spend too much time on it, I recommend you read some tutorials and familiarize yourself with the basics and also advanced details of the whole process.

I could tell you, that the best time is after at least 4.5 hrs of sleep, but if you don't know anything else about it, you will spend more time on trying than you would if you educated yourself.

Here are some great tutorials

It is not a thing that works every time, or even often. Me and Sageous both have tons of experience and neither of us claim a high success rate. A few members will say it works for them every time, but who knows if they are making it up. I don't know Sageous' success rate, but he wisely claims it requires everything to go just right, and often fails regardless of his efforts. My own success rate, if I do every thing correctly is only about 1 in 3. That does allow me to have lots of success, but plenty of failed attempts are part of the deal. Trtying to WILD late in the day (awake 6+ hours) or at bed time, and my success rate will fall to as little as 1 in 10.
Personally every one should work hard on getting DILDs down by using MILD tricks, like mantras and RCs. Gab is a great help with thhat information, and helps teach a class in DVA. MILD is the best tool, and I think even those of us with high success rate (1in3 is actually crazy high) with WILD still should have MILD be the core of our practice. I suspect that until you have had a dozen or so DILDs, that WILD may be almost impossable, as you will not know enough of what LDs feel like to complete the process. Go ahead and try if it still sounds worth it, but focus on MILD skills either way.
