Person Information
Gender: Male
Age: 20
Timezone: EST


TG raids 5 days a week when the content demands it, 6:30-11:30 EST Sunday to Thursday. Would you be able to maintain an 80% attendance rate?:
I would be able to make every raid and I will always have the proper flasks, potions, food, and gold to repair with no excuses.

Do you know anyone in TG who would vouch for your skill as a player? If so, who?:
No, I do not know anyone in TG.

What is you previous guild history and explain any reasons why you left them. (long answer):
I was in Sassy, left guild about two months ago due to some GM issues, GM apparently didn’t care about guild, we were using loot council which gave him a chance to gear himself and his buddies. Anyway, I left Sassy to join Knights of Shadow, left guild this week, I am just tired of been in a guild that carries a large percentage of its raiders. We have been trying some hard-modes for while and couldn’t finish any of them. People dying to some retard shit like lightning on Thorim, getting hit by rockets on Mimiron, we couldn’t even do Freya with one elder up! and there were some people who are barely outdpsing tanks!! I can’t sit around and deal with it anymore.

Have you ever been a raid leader, class leader, officer, or website administrator with another guild? (long answer):
No, I’ve not.

Why do you want to join TG over another guild on this server? (long answer):
I want to be a part of a team where everyone is as dedicated to the guild’s success as I am. TG’s long-standing reputation on Arthas leads me to believe this could be that place for me.

Please describe in detail your previous raid experience, pre-BC, BC, and current content. Include information if you participated in pre-nerf kills, legitimate attunements (such as Hand of A’dal), etc. (long answer):
Unfortunately nothing here worth mentioning or to brag about, I started playing WoW after release of WotLK. However, I have cleared all content in WotLK.

Explain in detail the way you DPS/Heal/Tank, rotations, gear selection, gemming, etc. Convince us that you have thorough and extensive knowledge of your class. Links to WWS or similar performance recording tools are helpful. (long answer):
I’ll start with rotation even though I don’t think we can call it a rotation anymore, it’s just a priority system. However, as Desto I’d start with CoE/CoD > Immo > CB > CF > Incin > Incin .. basically what I do is making sure Immo up all the time on target, using CF and CB whenever they are up and never stop casting Incin when everything on CD and Immo is up.
As for Aff my rotation will be like this, Life Tap > SB > Haunt > Corruption > CoA > UA > SB > SB ..

Describe your gaming system. Your computer needs to be good enough to not cause problems raiding. Frame lag, ping, connection problems, not using a microphone + Ventrilo or crashing is not acceptable. (long answer):
MoBo: EVGA nVidia 680i SLI
CPU: Intel Q6600 QuadCore
RAM: 4GB CRUCIAL Ballistix Tracer
Graphics: EVGA GTX280 1GB
I think it’s more than enough to run WoW, I never experienced any frame lag during any encounter. I don’t have connection issues. I have a working microphone and ventrilo installed.

Why are you worth being one of the 25 people in a raid? Please list anything else you'd like to mention about yourself that we might have missed. (long answer):
Coming prepared to raids with consumables – flasks, pots, food-buffs, etc .. And researching fights in advance, listening to all instructions given in vent, dedication and willingness to adapt myself as needed. I think that’s what makes me worth being one of the 25 people in a raid.

Can you handle criticism?: How can we contact you?:
Yes! I love constructive criticism. If someone in your guild simply said "you're an idiot" or something along those lines, I wouldn't really know what to do. If however, someone tells me I'm doing something wrong specifically or shows me something I could improve upon, I'll be very receptive and try to learn as much as possible. I know many people have been playing this game much longer than I have and I'm always eager to learn anything I can.

You can contact me in-game (Aleem) or by e-mail on my profile.

FYI, your Glyphs are wrong. 3/13/55 gets a solid DPS increase for using GoLifetap over GoImmolate. The reason 13/57 uses immo is because Imp. Soul Leech restores so much mana we don't find ourselves needing to tap so much... Life Tapping without needing mana (even when using rank 1) is a DPS loss due to GCD.

HOWEVER, if your build lacks imp. Soul Leech it is a solid DPS loss NOT to take GoLT. Just throwing that out there.

I'm aware that using LT glyph instead of Immo with 3/13/55 will increase my dps. I run some simulationcraft tests based on my current spec and gear,,

glyph_conflagrate=1
glyph_incinerate=1
glyph_immolate=1http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/7908/nolt.png (http://img195.imageshack.us/i/nolt.png/)

glyph_conflagrate=1
glyph_incinerate=1
glyph_life_tap=1http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/6636/56390593.png (http://img200.imageshack.us/i/56390593.png/)

but the problem with simulationcraft vs real boss fights that Simulationcraft always assumes it's a tank and spank fight, which I believe there aren't any fights like this in Ulduar and won't be in next patches, so since there are a lot of stuff going on during hard-mode encounters.. I don't want to add life tap to my rotation. However, that's doesn't mean I'm not able to keep life tap buff up all time, I'm just saying removing life tap of my rotation will help me concentrate on fight and this would increase my dps more :Dhttp://img195.imageshack.us/i/nolt.png/

I would advise you not listen to the warlock who was about to be Gkicked and died to shadow crashes.

From what i hear they buffing Glyph of life tap to last longer...
looks like blizz is wanting you to do that.
GG blizz.
More spoon feeding please

besides with ulduar awareness and overall competance is > small dps changes. OR HEALING.
staying alive and not putting stress on healers is best.
To many people assume everythign is fine when you have top healers fixing your asses.

+2 for proper response about the glyphs, tells me you do some research on your characters and told us your reasoning for your choices.
That alone if what i want to see in a raid.
May or may not be right, but at least you got ammo and your factors defined. Next stage is the debate.

I just hope for more people not using f@#$ as verb /adjective and a noun all in the same sentance.

Other then that i believe more questions are in order to work on a trial.

its very good you run your own tests and make your own decisions rather than just reading EJ and believing all the crap you read. shows you give a shit and actually have a more in depth knowledge of how your class works. good on you

Coming from a fellow GM - I'd tend to agree with your take on the fact that this guy seems to totally know (or at least back what he thinks he knows) on internal tests. That's quite impressive.
