What class, race, char name and level are you: Warlock, Blood Elf, Chourico, lvl 80
What is your current spec? (this is a PvE guild so if you currently are specced for PvP then link what you will spec if you join): Destruction
How long have you played WoW, and how long have you played with this character (meaning /played): I play WoW since tbc. have played time on this character, 46 days, 23h, 40m
How much and at what hours do you play WoW per week: Depends on the time of the year. During exams period i play less, but in average maybe between 1 to 3-4 hour per day.
Does this mean you can raid 19:00-23 most weekdays and 19:00-23 on Sundays then? As above said, depends on the time of the year but usually yes.
What are your previous endgame raiding experiences: i have tbc raid experience in Tempest keep, serpentshrine cavern, gruul and magtheridon's lair. never raided before tbc since wasnt playing at that time. In Wotlk ive cleared all raids except eoe and ulduar (ive cleared 8 bosses in ulduar10 and have knowledge of the tacts to all of them).
Do you have any more chars (We prefer your application to be with your main character since this is a endgame content raiding guild and we will use much of your WoW time): yes, i have a DK tank, and im currently leveling (trying at least) a shaman healer
Are you sharing your WoW account or toon with anyone. Meaning, can it happen that someone else then you are playing on the toon you are applying with? I dont share my account with anyone but can happen that my gf is using the account to farm money. Not happen during raids or other group things ofc
Reason why you wanna join: Valhala always seemed to me one of the best guilds in server. never had any complain raiding or doing hcs with any member from it (i admire the behaviour of the guild members) and i think that the mentality and spirit of the guild goes along with mine.
Do you know anyone in Valhalla: No
Whats your expectations of Valhalla (elaborate pls): . Im hopping to find mature (not arrogant retards like theres a lot lately in game unfortunatly) players to group with. That raiding is enjoyful and not a nightmare that gives headaches and dont see QQ all the time cuz of a litle wipe or loot.
What do you think you would provide to our guild (explaining a bit, again, would be good): I would provide an reliable, experienced and commited player thats always ready to learn more about all the game aspects. Always appear when apply raids, and always show up with food buffs and flasks and Never fake disconnect and say that the cat pissed on the modem.
What previous guilds have you been in, and why did you leave them: Ive been in gaia, and was co-founder and officer from the strugling guild Critical Damage till now (more or less half-year). The guild died this week since we (most of the core players) got tired of the unending strugle all the time and after doing everything we could to keep it running we gave up and left, since it was no use to keep going in a place where we where having 3 times more troubles than fun, for more than 3-4 staight months.
Any other information you might want to share with us: Ill go on vacations soon, after a tirefull year in college, but in september ill be back. When i cant appear to raid, i usually justify why.
What addons/programs do u need to be able to function properly in the guild? Currently i use omen, reccount, atlasloot and dbm. But im able to add any addon required if im acceptd.
very great application imo...got a good vibe from it :) .....my influence is very minimal now when i“m not officer any longer but from my point of view is this a clear yes-vote :)
just a little question: How high is your average dps and could you perhaps explain how your dps rotation goes :)

Hey, and thanks for the good words, really hope to get in :)
my average dps is around 3k. in a good day i can output +3.5k and when im lazy around 2.8k (thats the minimum i ever get).
My rotation goes something like this: Curse of elements - Immolate - Corruption - Chaos bolt - Incinerate/Shadow Bolt (depends on the glyph activation) - Conflagrate, then returns to immolate again, etc.
Your spec, glyphs and gear can all be improved to make you do better PvE dps.
The following things was most obvious.
1. you have to little hit rating to not spec the Suppression talent. You should have atleast around 400 hit rating for not putting any points in suppression.
2. you have a wierd destro spec combining both fire and shadow spells. That is not optimal at all and lowers your dps alot. If you want to be destruction specced you should consider speccing like this instead which should be optimal for your gear: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#IcZcr0h0hZVbGVrMuVkAcst:zq0
If you rather want to use shadow bolt and corruption you should instead consider speccing demonology or affliction.
3. Your glyphs are incorrect. For a destruction spec you should have the following major glyhphs: Glyph of Immolate Glyph of Conflagrate Glyph of Incinerate
The healthstone and corruption glyph you have now lowers your dps alot.
4. Your rotation with the spec and glyphs above should be: CoE/CoD - Immolate - Chaos Bolt - Conflagrate - Incinerate as filler. Then recast Immolate, Chaos Bolt and Conflagrate when they are thier cooldowns. Dont bother using corruption at all as it will lower your dps during nuking, only use corruption on fights when you have to move and cast it while moving.
With the above changes I am sure you will go above 4k dps with the gear you have.
Right now during the summer we are not doing any 25man raids. We occasionally do 10man raids though.
As i said before, im always willing to learn :) Concerning the hit rating, i didnt thought it was a problem since i dont miss attacks, but i can re-spec with no problem to improve. Concerning the glyphs, i know they are wrong but when i builded this spec it was with the intention of pvp with it a bit too, thing that didnt happen and i forgot to change :) The raids now during the summer wont be a problem since i will be on vacation too and will not play as much now as during the rest of the year.
Bottom line, respecing and reglyphing will not be a problem, as so not doing 25man during summer :)
