Raider Application - Warrior (DPS) - Quickzor

[Applicant]

Hello, Iron Edge!

I am applying for the main raid.

Character: Warrior - Quickzor, alt Lockstarz
Armory: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/Kazzak/Quickzor/advanced
Member Type: raider

Personal Info:

My name is Paul, 34 from the UK, I live in Northern England, near Middlesbrough.  My accent is from Berkshire area though as that is where I originated from.  I work for Virgin Media as a Business Improvement Manager which can be demanding at times.

I have a little boy age 4 and he's my life, I guess what and why have I decided to apply here, firstly like the tone of the guild, seems like you like to have fun while progress at a steady rate, the 2 days fit me alot better as I was struggling to  really give 100% to a raid with my current demanding work commitments while doing 3 days raiding and trying to participate in guild activities and the social side.  I think 2 days will be much better for me,with work,play and my family life.
 
Ultimately I am looking for a home for my wariror for now, to build friendships and guild mates to be ready for legion raiding but one that balances my homelife, worklife and my social elements.

Class/Spec:

I so perfer to play Fury, then Arm's but do so when the encounter requires me to such as council and Tyrant, also Archi I played Arm's but keen to try out fury

I play fury as much as the RNG is a nightmare at times, but at times it can be like winning the lottery its fun to play espcially at the higher end gear wise, when you have more mastery when your crit levle is buffed 33%+

My gear level is around 740 in both Arms and Fury give or take 1 point.

I generally go for 33+ crit then go for mastery - my gear has the required level of crit so I have focused on mastery now as the benefits from my sims mastery hasnt started to push ahead slightly, not to mention including the damage of my executes and other abilities when enraged.

Mastery gemm'ed and enchanted also gives me the flexibility to play arms when I require as well.

Alts:

Lock - 100 - Kazzak
Druid - 90 - Kazzak
Pallie - 100 - Aszune


Professions:

Professions have been pretty much balanced out since WoD in advantages, but I was BS and JC for extra sockets and better gems.

Raiding Experience:

I have been playing for 9/10 years,

I have been in progresison hc guilds and been in alot of semi hardcore ones as well, as I seem to get older my commitment level has become less, so the days of my commitment of 5/6 days raiding have now gone, and even ability to raid ona 4 day week is also gone, and 3 days is challenge but 2 days with optional stuff aorund that would be ideal now for me, this doesnt mean my desire to success has changed, I still want to push as hard as good as I used to but need to condense the time I can offer so I can get the life / game /work balance just right.

Experience

BT - Aszune - Been there done that -  server 2nd kill of illidan
IC - Aszune - Eluo - server first as a guild - missed the kill by 1 week as I was in spain

I then started to take a little change in my direction and reduced my raiding days to 3 and joined Origin on Aszune and continued to push to kill last boss of a expansion which in general achieved that but not driving towards server 1st or anything.

I joined Cerebral on Kazzak for SOO as I found myself that my role changed and had a bit more free time again to raid 4 days a week and killed end boss before any nerfing that took place.

I went back to Aszune and re-joined origin again as my pressure built up and needed to down size to 3 days from 4 days again, which was on a social/raiding guild to play as a team to complete vs team work and fun along the way.

I rejoined Kazzak recently as I was in need of a more active guild currently as social in Endless.

I have been a dps throughout apart form illidan where I was the MT for the progression.



 

Previous Guilds:

BTDT - left as they folded after 1.5 years in them
Eluo - new push guild was headhunted from some previous players of BTDT was in there for 2 years iirc
Origin - after 2 years found that I had more time to go and push on the new expansion and had a coupel of friends in Cerebral so changed server and guild
SOO - next expansion inc again, decided to take a bit of a back seat again, and rejoined Origin back with old friends, near end of progression of blackhand PC died, so had to take a step down from raider for 4 months, recruited another 2 warriors left us with 3 warriors in a 20 man raid so decided to change guild, to Better then life - they recently foldered due to Aszune doesnt have the people on the server to recruit ppl so I moved to Kazzak to find a new home.
Joined Endless - but dont have the commitment and headspace for 3 day raiding,2 days would be perfect.

Very nice app, pretty much fully geared and experienced too!

Do you perhaps have some logs from recent raids we can take a look at?

[Paul]

Hi Rashkebab,

Thanks for your reply,

Please find recent logs,

Performance at times hasnt been optimal but that is due to some of my challenges of balancing life and 3days raiding, which I know I can sort out with a more condense raiding 2 day regime. 

Thanks

Hey Quickzor,

Nice application, as a fellow father i get where your coming from, my question is ..... what are your thoughts on this transmog.

Good luck on the application!

Vejeta

[Lycanus]

ant man or atom?

[Paul]

Hey Quickzor,

Nice application, as a fellow father i get where your coming from, my question is ..... what are your thoughts on this transmog.

Good luck on the application!

Vejeta

Your transmog is tidy,I would say more Ant Man as Lycanus says, but honestly if I was you I would get those eyebrows trimmed back slightly they must cause you all sorts of bother in the midst of battle

[Vejeta]

Thats not my tmog and you answered the question very badly, let's hope this lapse in judgement isnt a risk to your application lol

[Rash]

Don't let the trolls get you down, Quickzor! As he said, he has a small penis.

Let's go see what our melee officer has to say about your app!

[Phoenixflame]

Hey Quickzor,

ignore the silly paladin. Our internal consensus decided that this transmog is acceptable.
Otherwise, great app! Everything relevant inside, experience and gear look more than just good. I'd really like to give you a trial.

You can poke me or an officer ingame for an invite!

Silly paladin, funny coming from a bladestorm keybound warrior, the tmog isn't deemed acceptable just better than the guilty party has been donning recently.

My reply was banter you bunch of trolls and as for you rash, how low can you get to make things up bout a mans penis, you shall be victim to its thirst in june!
