PostSubject: Application Enhancement Shaman   Wed Jul 08, 2009 10:56 am

Have you read our guild charter? Yes.

Age: 22

Where are you from: Lion City

Tell us a bit more about yourself:
Been playing the whole of TBC, cleared everything up to Illidan and Archi before switching to pvp when transfer servers came out to Thaurissan due to RL commitments. First player to get season 4 weapons, Only warrior with gladiator in s3 - 4 with shoulders and weapon on the server. I've played with players from Tribunal(Thaurissan), Not Steamboat(Thaurissan), Ghost(Thaurissan) when they xferred over. Tribunal's GM is my good friend and arena partner. Shortly after I stopped my warrior. Then, I came over to Nagrand to play with you guys for awhile on my friend's shammy, Blitzkreg. I don't know whether you guys remember me. Then I realised I needed a break and stopped for 10 months.

What time is it for you during our raid start time? We start at 9pm[+8GMT] (12AM server time):
It's the time to kill bosses. Yea it's 9pm for me too.

Are you able to consistently raid on all 3 raid nights with us?
I can make it for wednesday and monday always. On thursday, the earliest I can come on is 2230 due to studies

What times are you online usually?
1830 till raid ends? Thats on weekdays. On weekends, if I don't meet my gf, i'm online 48hours 7 days a week.

Name of your character: Changing it when I transfer. Haha.
Class: Shaman
Race: Hardiness
Realm: Nagrand

Please list out your alts (Name, Class, Level, Guild, Faction, Realm):
Eunice, Rogue, 80, Evolution, Alliance, Saurfang
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Saurfang&n=Eunice
Which boss fights have you successfully cleared and on which toon?:
On my rogue I cleared up to kolo for 25, Hodir for 10. Seriously, I don't see how hard these bosses(ezy mode) are compared to TBC ones atm. I'm aware hard mode isn't a walk in a park. Blizzard couldn't think of anything else so they put enraged timers on bosses to make them hard.

Anything extra worth mentioning, character wise?:
Hardiness is OP. My character isn't elitist.

At the moment, the shaman is level 73, on the server on a friend's account. If I do get accepted, I'll buy a new account, transfer the character there and in the meanwhile level it to 80 asap(Prob by end of the week). Work my way up for gear(isn't hard at all) in raids that the guild might not be doing? Such as naxx25. I'll just pug etc etc.

Name of your old guild(s) and realms: United/Syndicated(Spinebreaker), JAG(Aman'tul), RNG Gaming(Thaurissan), Evolution(Saurfang)

Why did you leave your old guild(s)?
Well, first to second was to see more content. Second to third was to do pvp due to RL commitments. Fourth is basically when I rerolled and I got backstabbed by the people that ask me to come back(elitist) and practically left me to fend for myself thus finding that guild.

Why do you want to join us?
My sister is in the guild. I would like to raid with her. I heard you guys needed a enhancement shaman. So I'll just play one.

What makes you a good addition to BoOBs? (This is important)
Well, pretty much everyone says the same thing. But, I have a very good knowledge of every single class in the game. Well, reason for that is I have pvp'ed for a very long time. And I practically know every minute detail of every class. As I play melee classes, I know how to have the most uptime on players(bosses aren't as hard). I know how to play defensively as that keeps me alive. If I only knew how to dps, I might as well roll a fotm, and roll my face on the keyboard and see my dps fly to the sky.

I'm a casual player, I'm not as hardcore as I used to be. But I have knowledge of the game. I can joke around, don't really take things seriously from the game. We're here to have fun and laugh. Especially since the guild aren't raiding six hours a day six days a week. I know standing still and dpsing is difficult.

I try to push my dps as far as I can. I know some classes are above the rest atm *cough* Rogue, DK *cough*. If you put an equally skilled player in the worst dps class and the top dps class, which class would do better? And I believe everyone who knows what they are doing are equally good. You can't expect a hybrid to be topping dps in WOTLK anymore. Too much QQ and tears everywhere. But still NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE. I have been in top 1-3 dps in guilds with gear not equivalent to others such as using T5/ZA beating T6. 2 piece T7.5 with lolcrafted, hahapvpgear, beating 4 piece t7.5 uld10/25 or t8.5 clad players.

I don't know if this point would help in any way, I'm not sure whether you guys are open to opinions, strats, tactics, which I could suggest. I still have connections with people in Not Steamboat, Ghost and Tribunal that have strats for bosses. =)



Can you link a recent WWS or WMO report?
Nopes.
Have you applied for another guild recently?
Nah
Do you do research on boss fights or theorycraft? If so post links
http://bosskillers.com
What are your favorite WoW blogs or info sites?
http://mmo-champion.com
Any reference in our guild? (Please state your relationship)
Shironeko my sister, Gallowyn sister's bf.

Lastly, I offer everything I have in my capacity. I know being a lvl 73 shaman at the moment and not being at 80 isn't impressive at all. But as long as I can get in, I'll put my full commitment into getting it to 80 and making it uld25 capable asap(I'm putting my sister's head on the line here). I have no intention of making my sister look like a fool and making myself look like a joke. Trust me when I say she screams more to me than you guys will ever have heard combined. =S

Thank you for taking the time to read my application.

Edit: I'm already level 80 and on a separate account. Ty Gallow & sis <3

His warrior once saved Xiaxue from getting ganked on Spinebreaker. All you Xiaxue friends out there (I'm looking at you Mayo!) should bow in gratitude.

(Too bad he wasn't around all those other times I got ganked.)

I don't profess to be an expert of many classes, but to say that one have a very good knowledge of many classes because of PVP, in my humble opinion, is like saying one is an excellent cook because he/she is very good in making various types of instant noodles. Your sis may make you believe so Razz.

Honestly, being good at one aspect of the game doesnt naturally make one good at all aspects of the game, even at roles or classes. Ive seen good tanks being terrible dpsers, whilst there are some who are just full blooded healers. hehe Very Happy

I'm prolly saying this cause I have a grudge against full time PVPers Razz, because of late, all class changes were made due to PVP, and naturally the most class QQers seem to stem out of PVPers as well. And im a full time PVEer.

Cheerios. See u in game, ya? Very Happy

To be fair, the PvPers complain equally about imbalances in "their" game due to PvE concerns that are irrelevant to them. Since WoW has both PvE and PvP, and clearly Blizzard is intent on developing both aspects concurrently, this is something we'll have to live with.

Blizzard is not known to keeping true to their word, but from a monetary perspective, its easy to see why they cannot differentiate the two (too costly to administer) and they need to make money (by making it easier to get purpez and making it appeal to masses).

Lately, it seems that Blizz has taken efforts for (1) PVE players : to focus around content development(easy for casuals or hard mode for hardcores), and (2) for PVP : Class tweaks changes and balances.

From a PVE perspective, the generalisation of classes was to make content development easier and make it accessible to all guild with various limitations and representations as well.

Nevertheless, its still fun, but it does lack the awe and speckle of huge dungeons, and with collesium, the need to do away with trash as well! Very Happy

Let's see how WOW develops though.

I think that we are getting NOT ONE BUT TWO JORMUNGURS in 3.2 because Season 7 means that Tier 9 needs to be given to PvE players (according to Blizz's stated design plan), but there isn't enough time to prepare an Ulduar-like raid dungeon. The level of art and PvE design for 3.2 seems underwhelming right now, but as you say, we'll see how it goes.

yeah boyz... hahaa... with the current art of tier 9 pieces, you will be hard pressed to differentiate a warrior from a DK to a pally.
Same design different colour.

Since you are taking over Scowls, you are accepted as Guild Member.

Once you’re 80, you will need to prove that you are raid fit for the current level of content that we’re doing. Promotion to Initiate will be based on the recommendation of the officers.

Good luck!

How difficult could it be? Let's see:

T9 plate wearer lying dead on the floor: DPS warrior!

T9 plate wearer lying dead on the floor with a shield: Prot warrior!

T9 plate wearer surrounded by the broken corpses of innumerable foes: DK (of any spec or skill level)!

etc.
