Hey guys my name is Matt, i'm from Guildford in the UK, like 10 mins away from Abyiss
Just so you know this is an application for the B raid.
Personal Stuff: Apart from playing craft, I also enjoy working out, listening to electronic music (dubstep, hardcore, or anything else that catches my ear) and am big into my martial arts (black belt in Taekwondo, and currently practice Hapkido and Ninjutsu). Also enjoy going out and getting smashed in town with Abyiss but neither of us are drinking at the moment so thats a no go
Character name: Sidestep
Class: Rogue
Armory Link:
http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/dunemaul/sidestep/simpleAlright guess I should give a bit of a history, I'll try to keep it brief!
Played WoW since the start of vanilla near enough, and started out on good ol' Dunemaul.
Raiding Experience:
Vanilla: Ah vanilla, those were the days! As well as the raids listed below, also got my Shaman up to rank 9 when the pvp titles came in.
ZG - Clear
MC - Clear
BWL - Clear
AQ20 - Clear
AQ40 - Downed up to and including Huhuran, never got Twin Emps down.
Naxx40 - Killed a few bosses though i don't remember which exactly, never did 4hm due to the lack of 8 tanks in our guild.
TBC: Was playing slightly more casual when TBC came out. Did go to SSC and TK a few times but didnt down anything of note there, no Vashj or KT, was slacking a bit on the raiding front during TBC.
Karazhan - Clear
Gruul - Clear
ZA - Clear (no bear)
WotLK: After doing some casual raiding on Dunemaul with FWE, naxx10 and the like, I got an invite to a raiding guild called Perfectly Sane on Auchindoun from an old guildie from vanilla. With PS we swiftly became the top guild on the server, though with some stiff oppisition from some Turkish guilds on the Alliance side. Became the 1st guild on the server to complete The Immortal achievement in Naxx25, and a week or so later completed the Glory of the Raider(25 man) and received our black proto drakes.
With the release of Ulduar we realised compition would be fierce for server 1sts, so prepared ourselves for an epic raiding session. It was released on the Wednesday, we powered through it, and downed Yogg on the friday i think? However due to a few unlucky net crashes from key members, the lost time cost us the server 1st by an hour or so, though we had been at least 3 bosses ahead most of the way
With that out of the way we knuckled down to hardmodes.
A few months later had to quit wow due to some family issues. Abyiss and Fruitbat managed to convince me to come back for the release of ICC, so I transferred Sidestep back to Dunemaul, and joined Callous with Fruit and Kodin. We had some good times raiding there, despite a few issues. Downed LK in 10 man on the night before 5% buff was introduced. 25 man followed a few weeks later after people finally learnt how to spread out for the ice blocks on Sindragosa
Decided to take a break before the release of Cata, which ended up being a lot longer then expected when I re-discovered life outside of Warcraft
Due to the kind donation of a new GFX card and the not-so-subtle hints to start playing again, I'm now back and looking for a new guild to wipe.. i mean raid with
Sucking up: Thats where you guys come in, I've known Iron Edge since they first started up on Dunemaul, though not on a personal level until Abyiss joined, and I met Sintrael (where is that slacker btw?!), and you've always seemed a great bunch of people, and with decent progress too.
Came to a raid with you on the thursday, for the heroic Chimaeron kill, and heroic Maloriak 7% wipe (BAH!!!). Though I myself think my performance was very sub par, it was my 1st raid in a year, so i can say it will definetly be more impressive next time
Well thats it, thanks for spending the time reading this, and see you in-game!
Ps... Me and Abyiss
