Tell us about your spec. Why did you pick what you did? Is your spec cookie cutter? Do you know some secret we don't? Show us you have an understanding of your talents and you didn't just close your eyes and click all over your screen hoping for the best.
Elemental, pretty cookie cutter I would imagine. I have not done too much research on the class, however it doesn't seem to be that hard to master.


Ventrilo and do you have a mic:
Yup; however I dislike talking on vent.

Do you have an authenticator?
I have it, and will randomly log off just so I can see what set of numbers I can get. Its actually kind of fun.

Typical Weekly Playtime:
I am on most of the time. Can easily make the raid times. If I am not on for a raid it normally means I am either dying or dead.

Time Zone:
EST

Previous Guilds:
None that I can think of.

Previous Raiding Experience:
Raided MC, BWL, AQ 20/40, Old world naxx (not much). Cleared all but Sunwell in BC. Cleared everything in Wrath, to include several hard modes in ICC 10/25.

Why are you applying to us:
To fill a need really. I recently leveled an elemental shaman and I am in the process of gearing him up. I saw that the last elemental shaman that app'd really hasn't been raiding so I figured I would app and see if I can't get in. I know my gear is a bit behind your current level of progression; however I am working on bridging that gap by running heroic and pugging ICC and such where I can. Feel free to give any type of suggestions about my gear/spec I enjoy critiques and welcome them.

Wow web stats reports:
As I have never ran an instance on this guy it is hard for me to provide one of these. When I do one I will edit the post and provide one.

Do you know anyone in guild? If so please list your pals.
Not really. I heard that you guys are a bunch of people dedicated on getting stuff down, and would love to join that type of atmosphere. I have that "can do" attitude and don't mind wiping. I enjoy long nights of dying over and over again to learn a new boss, sitting around a campfire while munching on a fish feast and that new boss kill smell that comes with killing bosses.

Tell us a bit about yourself:
I am a 25 (I think thats how old I am) male. Have been playing this game for god knows how long. Just looking for some fun and for some good people to play with.

Do you have a problem with being ignored? Seems to be a trend on vent...

[Ysaurion]

I've leveled and run a few instances with this guy and he seems to take the fact that he's a troll shaman and extend that to trying to 'troll' all the tanks in instances. I try to tell him to be considerate of the baby tanks, but he can't keep his finger off of his thunderstorm button and purposefully uses it to try and elicit a response from the tank. I mean, he seems to know his stuff,, but MAN WHAT A JERK.

He also steals herbs from me, even though he knows he'll just mail them to me for elixers and flasks. He might be addicted to tiger lily.

When on vent, it sometimes sounds like he's running a kindergarten in the background.


Looks like he upgraded to 2 piece t9, but still using a green totem? I hope a nice totem is your next planned badge upgrade.

And BADDIE: unspent points in his secondary resto spec and unfilled resto glyph slots. Obviously he's not dedicated or attentive. He probably stands in fire to squeeze more dps out of LB spam and then kills himself on the last boss in FoS normal.

First off you must be a female, you seem to complain about the smallest things.

Its true, I thunderstorm. I enjoy challenging a tank, you don't want them becoming lazy and complacent. That is just not good at all.

As for the herb issue, it was not made clear that she wanted the herb in question. To make amends for my "ninja" move, I bought her a lvl 80 chest piece, lvl 80 boots AND lvl 80 bracers...I thought that sealed the deal on the herb issue...I guess not.

As for the totem, I have been running heroics all day, working on getting the frost badges to purchase the 264 totem. I don't see a point in wasting badges on a totem I am just going to replace, as the badges are needed to get other items.

Oh lastly, as for the resto spec, I used it for leveling and once I started grouping with Ysaurion's shaman I no longer needed it. If it comes to the point where it is needed I can easily glyph and fix that spec. I don't really see me healing on the shaman that often, as I have a pally that is geared to heal.

Edit: I know my professions are not raid optimal, however I have the gold to quickly change them to more useful professions if I am accepted.

Must be another female...always so negative. You are messing up my chi with your negative vibes...How did you know I have kids? I didn't mention them in my app...are you stalking me? I must admit my life is pretty boring...not much fun for a stalker.

Next start a thread in this forum with the subject consisting of your main's name, class and current level

Obviously fails at reading directions, how can we expect you to execute a strat? I mean, you might try to DI a rogue tank or something.

Liar, you made an extra pair of boots by accident.

So no WoL, failed at reading directions, and a confirmed liar. Seems like the worst kind of app to me.

I had to give you something to comment on. I also stated the reason behind the lack of WoL. The best solution is for me to come with you guys and show you what I can pull with the lvl of gear I currently have.

Well if you want me to be picky, you're missing a shoulder enchant. Spreadsheet shows you as losing 3 DPS from using Glyph of Lava (I know that's a huge percentage in your terribad gear, but still) but on a lot of the movement fights in ICC Lava is going to win out. You're only 83 sp away from Lava winning outright anyway, aka replacing your craptastic blues. Your totem is so bad the spreadsheet can't model it properly.

Sigh, another one of these. The burden of proof is on you, we can't take the time to carry every scrub that apps here. Not seeing anything worthwhile here, move along there buddy.

I think the best solution would be to set him on fire and see what he does. *sage nod*

I actually have the shoulder enchant ready to go, I was hoping to get my 232 shoulders and thus put it on that. Since that has not happened I am bought two, one for the ones I am wearing now and one for when I get 232.

[Wrathblood]

I'm afraid you'll have to bring your own fish feasts. The guild doesn't believe in supplying them for trivial bosses like Arthas.
