To follow up on my flippant answer, you have not given us much to go on here. Your answers are brief and uninformative. You toss up your Armory profile as if that should be enough, but really it isn't. Read over some of the other apps that we have gotten so that you have an idea of what we are looking for. Why should we take you? Sell yourself, man.
What kind of DPS do you do? How well do you know your class? The fights? If I ask you to explain Mimiron to a new person, can you do it? When you get called out for standing in vapors, what kind of reaction can we expect?

That which doesn't kill you gets to try again later.

Alright as for my dps, im sitting currently around 3.7k, changes on some fights, As ret I believe I know my class inside and out, I know my rotations, whats expected, and listen carefully for moves to be aware of for boss fights, I know every fight up untill mimiron. As for explaining boss fights such as mimiron i would be able to do it, assuming I know all the details that the boss is Capable of. And as for reaction, being a melee dps, I am really fast on my feet, and am able to get out of Abilities in a timely manner. If there is anything else you would like to know, dont hesitate to post.

I hate to say this, but this answer is really generic to me...
Its like going to apply for a job teaching, and they asking you what you know about working with kids, and you answer with the 'I like kids, and kids like me.' or basically the simple 'what you want to hear' answer.
What I'm getting at, is this answer doesn't help explain a few things, such as who YOU are (you can learn a lot about someone from posting - or lack thereof), as well as it doesn't help us try and figure out how you're unique from every other Ret pally. =/
Another thing that somewhat bothers me is you say that 'As ret I believe I know my class inside and out, I know my rotations, whats expected... etc.' Well what are they? What do you know? If I asked you to give me a lesson right now, on what you do in a typical boss fight (lets name 3 or 4 right now. Patchwerk, Hodir, Iron Council, Thorim). What would your response be?

As a ret paladin, alot of my abilities are cooldown based, meaning that i have to work within a timeframe to be able to do my dps. As for my job as a ret paladin within a raid, i like certain paladins to be in charge of judging certain judgements so they dont conflict. As for a lesson on boss fights, Patchwerk heroic-Hateful Strikes Hit more than his actual hits, does those hits on the 2nd and 3rd top on threat, the fight is pretty much a tank and spank. Hodir heroic- Flash Freeze, has to be avoid by standing on mountains of snow that appear before the freeze, Frost blows-Hits the tank with a great amount of frost dmg can be reduced through frost resist armor as well as raid buffs, Also there are people frozen inside ice blocks- can be broken to help buff the raid and increase dps. Iron Council heroic-This fight consists of 3 bosses, Runemaster Molgeim, capable of doing death runes- must be avoided, and energy runes- increase damage 50% for both raid and the bosses, Steelbreaker- Does heavy melee damage as well as energy runes and Fusion Punch-deals 35k damage and deals a dot around 15k-20k that can be Dispelled. He also has a aura that deals 3k every 3 seconds to the raid. Thorim-the raid has to spit into 2 groups, the gauntlet and arena, gauntlets objective is to lure thorim into the arena through a hallway, there is also 2 mini bosses they will have to take as well, Arena- will be taking waves of npc's pretty much untill thorim arrives, once the first phase is done, Thorim will appear in the arena and the fight again is pretty much a tank and spank, Thorim- will also send out orbs that will need to be avoided as well. Once again if theres any other questions let me know.

Besides the fact that I get extremely annoyed by massive walls of text when paragraphs should be formed...
Drickzy asked you what your specific rotation was and you failed to answer that. If my memory serves me well what class doses without paying attn to cds? We were looking for maelstrom if available stormstrike earth shock lava lash if you were an enh shaman like me.
You listed random abilities without any real strategy. Abilities don't mean you know a fight.
Don't be so generic.
Just my two cents

Crusader Strike, Judgement, Concecration, Divine Storm, Exorcism, there is my rotation. My rotation doesnt rely or use procs. and yes this this rotation will change depending on the availble abilities i have.
Yes i do need to structure my paragraphs, And abilities are half the battle, if you are unaware what the bosses are capable of, then there is going to be no stategy.
Patchwerk- the main tank would pull, followed by the 2 OTs, generating as much threat as they could, then the melee dps would follow, and the ranged keeping their distance.
Iron Council- Main Tank would be on Steelbreaker tanked closest to the doors, An Off tank on Stormcaller Brundir where he stands, and the other off tank on Runemaster Molgeim keeping there distance from the other two tanks. Once lets say Steelbreaker is down, all dps would then switch to Runemaster Molgeim and be aware of his death runes. I would use Bloodlust on this boss because personally he is one of the more annoying of the three. After he is down everyone would switch over to Stormcaller Brundir and be aware of his overload.
Hodir-Only need one tank for the fight, all dps would break the iceblocks before dpsing the boss, once everyone is broken out all dps should switch over to boss and be aware of the buffs. they should stack up to maximize the dps, being careful of icicles and flash freeze.
Thorim-Get the mail and plate dps within the arena to AoE burn the adds, watching out for whirlwinds, stacking up within the middle. As for Gauntlet, listening to the leader to watch out for obsticles, keeping in a good formation, once the boss is brought down into the arena all dps would be on him, watching out for orbs.
Hope this helps.

Hmm... I wasn't really looking for what the fight consisted of... I was hoping you could more give me a break down of YOU as a player do on these fights. Like when the boss moves and you have to start your rotation over... things like that.
I mean, one can dissect from the wall that you do know how to read boss strategies (which historically has never been the case for most guilds), and you do understand your class (from a text book point of view). But I still don't know how you react to situations...

When a boss moves yes it will affect my dps through Consecration, and my actual rotation isnt written in stone, its used as a guide to starting my dps. There are going to be fights such as hodir and Iron council that will require alot of moving. As a ret dps my goal is to keep Heart of the crusader (increased 3% crit chance) through judgements as well as the judgement itself. Keeping both of those up will increase raid dps and depending on the judgement help the healers or with conserving mana to the dps. As for reacting to situations assuming the boss isnt going to tanked in one spot, most of the fight might be leaving out certain abilities, if they are frequently going to be kited around.
I also found a WWS as well

I talked to him pretty thoroughly the other night about ret pally specifics, and he knows his stuff. He's a nice guy, and would be a good fit for us IMO. Having people chime in on ret pally dps when they have no clue wtf they are talking about is kinda funny though.

Power hath descended forth from Thy hand
Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command
So we shall flow on a river forth to thee
And teeming with souls shall it forever be.

Oh, hey, Heaven. Just saw this and wanted to chime in.
Reliable guy, enthusiastic, always volunteering for stuff. I let my WWS account lapse, but I can reinstate it and pull out a zillion old WWS's of him in Naxx and Ulduar if need be.
So you ended up deciding on the ret pally as your raiding main, eh? You were a pretty good mage as well, as I recall, which is funny because I remember recruiting you into Malediction on your DK because we had almost none of them.

I was simply just curious if he could expand on his original post, getting more detail like Len wanted. That was all.
He then proceeded to tell me boss fights, instead of his role and how he reacts to situations. I wasn't judging him on if he was right or wrong, I simply wanted to see what he would say.
He seems nice, and was willing to answer the questions - seems like a good fit /shrug
