What class, race, char name and level are you: Class: Deathknight Race: Orc Name: Darkjames Level: 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): Well My current specs are Unholy Dps(17/0/54) and Blood Tank(48/13/10)
How long have you played WoW, and how long have you played with this character (meaning /played): I started WoW on the first day of european release back in feburary 2004 :), and have had a selection of chars, however my play time on my deathknignt is 51 days total, 45 at 80.
How much and at what hours do you play WoW per week: Bascially all the time, I'm in work friday saturday and sunday day times but thats it.
Does this mean you can raid 19:00-23 most weekdays and 19:00-23 on Sundays then? Yes can raid all those times.
What are your previous endgame raiding experiences: Vanilla: MC ZG BWL AQ20 AQ40 Naxx40 spiderwing on my mage TBC: Mag Grull Kara, Attempts in SSC and TK on my mage Wotlk: Naxx10/25, OS10/25, Maly10/25, Ulda10/25, on my mage ( cleared 10 and phase 3 yogg25)
And Deathknight i've done Naxx10, some of Naxx25, OS10(3d) maly10, Ulda10(Heart Breaker and Lose Your illusion and up to yogg phase 3), Ony10/25 Totc10/25 and ToTGC10 4/5, ICC10 6/12 and ICC25 4/12
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): I have other chars over different servers however on The Maelstrom I have my Deathknight and a level 40 paladin im leveling :)
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? Hell no sucka, I'd pity the foo.
Reason why you wanna join: I would like to be involved in progression with the guild, defeating new content is always a good feeling to share with fellow guildies, Im also a nice guy, polite to everyone since why get angry over a game? im reliable and I understand when I do something wrong, Criticism is welcomed and taking on board. I also like to have a joke and a laugh cant be too serious now can we.
Do you know anyone in Valhalla: I think i've grouped with some of your members in Hc's and Pug Raids but cannot recall anyone specific
Whats your expectations of Valhalla (elaborate pls): I'd like to be part of a guild that progresses through content, have a nice social guild chat where people chat to one another and have a friendly atmosphere, be nice to get to know new people :), Its not always about the loot, as thats a tool to help you collect your real reward which is the cleared content.
What do you think you would provide to our guild (explaining a bit, again, would be good): As Unholy DPS I'd be able to give everyone a multi target spell damage increase with my dieases, yes boomkin and warlock can do the increase but I can do it on mutli targets in a single moment, which would be a decrease in their dps if they were to do this. Also boosts diease damage so other Dks and Shadow Priests get some personal love :p. I'm also a mediocre Tank, since ive been DPS most of the time; so im starting to train my Tanking sKills, so far tanked 10/25 man ICC first 4 bosses. I'd also like to say I provide some comedy with my welsh accent.
What previous guilds have you been in, and why did you leave them: I joined this server after my guild on Boulderfist(alliance) fell apart and joined my RL mates guild "NoLimits" for some hc's and possible 10mans, which we eventually did, but the guild fell apart due to arguements amongst tanks and loot,
Then went guildless for a while then joined Knights Academy but it just wasnt the place for me, then I found Rare materials which were awesome but they disbanded and im not sure why :[.
Then joined the guild for old resolute members called True, but after discussion on forums and in guild everyone decided that its too difficult to get a raid started as many people are playing and doing RL issues and the remainly members didn't want to help recruit, few days later the guild also disbanded.
At present im in another guild for the ex-resolute / ex-true members just to have social guild chatting, doesnt seem fun without some banter.
Any other information you might want to share with us: I always attend raids when im needed or if im signed, i always bring my A game and all consumables needed, wiping sometimes is a neccessary requirement to learn encounters this is not a problem, there is only soo much you can learn from videos and reading tactics, sometimes its just trial and error. And I hope being welsh doesnt hurt me !
What addons/programs do u need to be able to function properly in the guild? The addons I use are DBM, Omen, Recount, Pitbull, Bartender, Grid, forte, atlasloot. I've never used or heard of EPGP loot system / EPGPlootmaster, however i'd appreciate some help on how to use them after I download them.
