My PS3 SN is DJHUOSHEN. Add me brah, let's fight.

1. Your age, gender, and time played:
19/male/91 days
2. List any alts and off specs you have gear for AND CAN PLAY COMPETENTLY (your main should be able to respec and play any spec on the fly):I don't play any alts, and I can play fury competently my gear just isn't as good as my prot gear

3. Armory links (mandatory):
[recruit loc="us,Smolderthorn"]Deliriously[/recruit]

IF YOU DO NOT INCLUDE ABOVE CODE WE WILL BE EXTREMELY ANGRY

4. Any WWS or WMO links or other clear indication of your performance in a raid (recommended):
I could never get a parse to work sorry


5. We are a raiding guild and are usually in the top 100 guilds in the US; it is expected you have raiding experience and know ALL encounters and hard modes currently in game! In your opinion, what is the most difficult boss encounter you have ever defeated and why?: 10 man heroic anub add tanking. One of the most fun/difficult encounters I've experienced.

6. Previous guilds/servers and reason for leaving, also include any references we may contact:
Albus Lupus Legios-We're a small guild focused on ten mans and pugging 25 mans. Smolderthorn kind of died when they opened free transfers to scilla and <The Boss> left. Contact Shle or Kepla for reference

7. It is assumed you will be available from 8-12 ST (Server Time is EST) Tuesday through Thursday, during progression we will raid Sunday and Monday as well starting at 8 ST and ending when all encounters are defeated. If you can’t, please explain why you couldn't make our scheduled raid times (or why you even bothered applying): The only reason I couldn't make would be due to having an exam or during the holidays when I'm home from college and hanging out with the girlfran.

8. Explain what specifically puts you at the top? We raid to be at the top and expect it of all our members. Do you take pride in topping meters, never letting the tank die, never pulling aggro, etc.? What separates you from the rest? Be specific, this will be a major indicator of the kind of player you are: I hate to lose. I try not to make mistakes, but things happen and I learn from my mistakes and don't make them again.


9. Post a screen shot of your UI or a comprehensive list of mods that you use for raiding. ARE YOU A CLICKER?



10. If you have thoroughly answered the following questions and you are confident you are what we are looking for, you have a good chance of being trialed, but we'd like to know why you want to join us? What made you choose us over the other guilds out there? I saw your website and found it fucking hilarious. Not just hilarious but FUCKING hilarious. I'm a sarcastic asshole and feel like I'd get a good laugh and enjoy playing with you guys.

Those crafting a Shadowmourne in our main raid have obtained all of the saronite they need, so the saronite we get from now on will be distributed to raiders based on the following indications:

How many saronite you already have (include in reply)
The date in which you request them in this thread
Your raid attendance and performance

I appreciate the players that have already bought saronite to craft pieces and the players that will provide some of their own saronite, you allow more raiders to craft more pieces.

1. Your age, gender, and time played: 23 Male (INSERT TIME PLAYED HERE WHEN I GET HOME)

2. List any alts and off specs you have gear for AND CAN PLAY COMPETENTLY (your main should be able to respec and play any spec on the fly):
My main right now is Demo/afflic but I can go destro if needed
Mongaloid (Priest) - Disc (Shitty shadow offspec)
Belonephobia (Paladin) - Prot (Holy offspec)


[recruit loc="us,scilla"]Darukti[/recruit]

4. Any WWS or WMO links or other clear indication of your performance in a raid (recommended):
I have a few that I have posted for blacklist's raids, some are fucked up because I would forget to run WoL until halfway through the instance/fight.

5. We are a raiding guild and are usually in the top 100 guilds in the US; it is expected you have raiding experience and know ALL encounters and hard modes currently in game! In your opinion, what is the most difficult boss encounter you have ever defeated and why?:

I'll be honest, I haven't done Alg at all, nor any of the new ICC wing (Plagueworks). However, the most difficult boss I have encountered is Kael (prenerf) that fight requires a silly amount of coordination, as it is all three types of fights in one (control, gimmick, dps burn) and some phases had that everything combined. Getting thrown into the air for the first time thinking, "hell yeah, we made it" was a good feeling after working on that fight for so long as we did. But then proceeding to wipe due to everyone thinking this. (Note: due to problem of other people standing in fires, I only have experience with the 10-man versions of hardmodes)

6. Previous guilds/servers and reason for leaving, also include any references we may contact:

Old server (BC) Soldiers of Light (Thunderlord)
Scilla- Blacklist is the only true "raiding guild" I've been in. I know Thirdimpact from him having his alt there.

7. It is assumed you will be available from 8-12 ST (Server Time is EST) Tuesday through Thursday, during progression we will raid Sunday and Monday as well starting at 8 ST and ending when all encounters are defeated. If you can’t, please explain why you couldn't make our scheduled raid times (or why you even bothered applying):

I can make those times, however going over 12 will be a stretch. I have to leave for work at 7am, so if I were to stay past, it would have to be worth my time (eg several 5% wipes on a progression boss).

8. Explain what specifically puts you at the top? We raid to be at the top and expect it of all our members. Do you take pride in topping meters, never letting the tank die, never pulling aggro, etc.? What separates you from the rest? Be specific, this will be a major indicator of the kind of player you are:

Well I do like topping meters as does every dps/healer/tank (yes, it's fun out dpsing shitty dps as a tank and then telling them about it), I understand that it isn't ALL about dps. If an add needs to be killed (Saurfang for example) you NEED TO KILL THE ADD and say fuck your personal DPS. I also really like to find little tricks in each fight to boost dps (ideal times to pop trinket/pots, etc), which also denotes that I spend exhaustive time researching an encounter and every minor class change that may come along. Additionally, I understand how raid mechanics work. I am more than willing to be the replenishment bitch or SP bitch for the betterment of the raid and not bitch about it. Finally, I am one of those people that says that they will be there, THEY WILL BE THERE, and if I'm not I will give a heads up with plenty of time to find a replacement. (and other generic "I'M GUD PICK ME" SHIT HERE)

9. Post a screen shot of your UI or a comprehensive list of mods that you use for raiding. ARE YOU A CLICKER?
I have most everything keybound, but I will click things like create healthstones and the lesser used skills that I still have on my hotbars. I use OMEN, DBM, DOT timers, Grid (with grid addons), Recount (with guessed absorbs)
(I WILL ADD A SCREENSHOT WHEN I GET HOME)


10. If you have thoroughly answered the following questions and you are confident you are what we are looking for, you have a good chance of being trialed, but we'd like to know why you want to join us? What made you choose us over the other guilds out there?
I already have my priest in here as friends rank and I thoroughly enjoy it. I enjoy everyone's humor. but also the tenacity when getting shit done. People actually have some inner-motivation to do things because they WANT to, rather than being FORCED to.

With the Plague wing finally providing some challenge to 25 man raids, I feel it's time to make my return and host top quality PuGs. I will be leading a 8PM Friday and 8PM Saturday night PuG (that's two PuGs), and sign ups will expected to be experienced and properly geared.

WELCOME BACK HARD CONTENT.

guys whats happennnNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
   

Sign up.

1. Abec - Tank

1. 21 years old from Kentucky, male. Time /played on current main is 256 days.
2. Main talent build is a slight modification of the current cookie-cutter Arcane focused specialization. Sacrificed 3 yards of range in favor of maximizing another DPS focused talent. I can live with 33 yards. If it becomes a problem in newer ICC content it's 30 seconds of a respec to be rectified.

I've always misses frost raiding, to be honest. Ever since pre-BC when fire starting outperforming, I always through BC now and then would switch over to Frost for a fight or two. The playstyle has totally changed since the days of Mage tanking Zerevor or AOE'ing Kael's weapons. But I'm up to date on it. I can play frost quite well (and it's actually midly competitive these days), if the time ever came to where we needed a 5% crit buff or a replenishment. I'm never opposed to switching over to a different build if it benefits the raid. A serious problem with today's game is lack of respect for one's fellow raiders. That's why I miss vanilla. It was all teamwork. Helping each other farm resistance gear, staying up for one more UBRS run, and handing out pots to those who needed. Nowadays most DPS classes (particularly butthurt pures since hybrids got sorta good), are all about *MY DPS* instead of *THE BOSS DYING*. Sure, I love seeing myself high on Recount. It instills confidence and is a fun time. But it's a lot more fun knowing I'm the fulcrum of success that made the big thing fall down and drop purples.

3.http://www.wowarmory.com/character-shee ... &n=Magiray I had +10 stats on my T9 robe, but replaced it last night and just threw a +8 for the sake of having it for this application. I'll have +10 within the next day or so.

4. I once had plenty. Plenty of great parses from Ulduar hard modes, however I haven't been in touch with the game in a few months. I take breaks every fall for my soccer team. This season past was my last however, so won't happen in the future.

5. The most difficult encounter I've ever been a part of was vanilla Gothik. Some of my old guildmates say vanilla 4H was harder. Pre-nerf Firefighter in Ulduar was also pretty brutal back in the middle of 2009. Just for me personally, I had a hard time with Gothik.

6. Desolation Knights was my first raiding guild. Rocket Surgeons of Executus was my 2nd.. Played there for a couple of years, before finally transferring to Scilla. I raided for about 6 months with Boss (who I got my Rusted Ulduar Drake with). Had a 3 week trial period, passed easily. If anyone knows Tay the paladin, he and I were a part of Boss's 10 man core group and I was always a regular in 10 or 25 man raids.

7. I do have a job, but it's a rarity that I'm forced to stay late. My work schedule is also flexible.

8. The one thing that separates me from the majority of mages is the pure obsession I have with understanding every little mechanic about my class. Crit modifiers for different builds, soft haste caps, DamagePerMana tradeoffs, and most of all - benefits of stats. Item level means nothing to me. For example, As arcane, an item level 200 trinket that gives me 84 haste is always better that a 232 trinket that gives me critical strike. Understanding what stats optimize your performance as a certain build is always better than whoring any high item level that drops at your feet and is VITAL if you want to hold your own in a raid. While the game isn't nearly as critical on performance as it used to be (easy content), I still and always will take my class as seriously as I always have. Whether I'm farming NR for Huhu or respecing in between Hard mode Mimiron attempts to get that perfect build for a bad situation, I only play the mage class and I take it extremely seriously.

I read the works of EJ.com's Manly and Sancus (two of the best mages I've ever spoken with) like it's a bible. I learn a new intricacy every day. It's wise reading up at a place like EJ where a lot of great WoW mage minds come together. I know my role. I make green bars smaller. I'm not a fool with iceblocks and blinks, and usually only need to mess up once to never make the same mistake again.

9. Quartz - helps me modify the casting bars of my Focus targets so I don't miss a quick Focused Counterspell or Poly if the situation calls for it.

DBM- Have it or don't raid IMO.

Recount- Stays closed during encounters so I don't get in a pissing contest with anyone and lose sight of what I'm doing. Quick way to fuck around and die.

Cooldown Count- BEST ADDON EVER. Numbers count down the cooldown of particular spells.

10. I raid to be the best. I raid to be proud of the tag that's below "Magiray, Hand of A'dal". I raid for people to look at me and wish they had my guild. It's all about the prestige. Piss on the gear. If I could raid current content with my old T2 Netherwind, I'd definetely do that. Bosses dying is all I care about. I'll do whatever I can for my raid to achieve that.

In conclusion, I'm a 21-year old guy with a good sense of humor. A guild full of friends that become raiders at 8PM sounds wonderful to me and that's what I'm thinking you guys are. If a raid spot isn't open, that's fine. Being in a fantastic guild filled with like-minded individuals who are actually talented at this game is the environment I want to play in. I thank you for considering me.
