Why do you want to join Iron Edge?:
I want to join because i want to be able to do ICC25 each week not in a pug and with good people that are constantly improving their game play. I want to join specifically Iron Edge because you are top english speaking guild on wowprogress http://www.wowprogress.com/pve/eu/dunemaul and i also raided many times with guys from your guild in pugs/gdkp and once at LK 10 man :D

More about me:
I am an adaptable person and i learn fast how to overcome ingame obstacles. I play well ( won't say more so i wont leave a smug cloud  ^^ ). I use tons of usefull addons ^^. I like good humor and a light atmosphere. Also would like to be an active tank in your main raids. :D I also started doing PvP a few weeks ago and i like it. :) Wanna make an arena team soon to gear up more.

Last Words:
"Pick me, pick me, pick me!" ;D

2H Frost tank and blood dps?

both dead specs.

Gear looks fine.

Lacking a bit of experiance to the lvl Bteam raids.

Goodluck.

Not sure what you mean by "dead specs" but if you mean that it is generally true and not having to do with current raid composition then it's not true.  :'(

2H and DW for DK have both their advantages and disadvantages, 2H at same item level gives less threat but that is not a problem cause threat is more than enough. Besides the talent point spent on DW can be spent on something else. ;D

And blood dk's do best single target sustained and burst dps out of the 3 specs and also give abomination's might buff to party. :D

What is experience needed for B team raiding that i'm lacking?
Title: Re: DK tank/dps for raid A/B
Post by: Intrinsic on August 02, 2010, 03:47:44 pm
Blood no longer does competitive dps, Unholy and Frost DW are pretty far infront atm.
As for tanking i was pretty much under the impression that Blood is the best spec for a tank, even if it is a bit crap for aoe.

Currently the a-raid are not looking for a tank and we have backup off-specs that can fill in if we miss one.

Good luck elsewhere or even the b-raid.

It should be self-explanatory.

i would say frost is fine for trash or add type bosses IE- dreamwalker. but you just cant beat Bloods defencive cooldowns.

plus with the 30% buff gives 30% more healing from death-strike and runetap. = FUCKING AMAZING.

And to go back to your question of experiance.

Braid are compleatly focusing on Sindy, all other bosses are on farm, (well Lady D keeps us on our toes still)

So your experiance for the other 9 bosses is rather 'Light'

But who knows maybe you've wiped on them 100 times and know the fights inside out.

but i would say changing both spec would be mandatory if you got accepted.

@Intrinsic:
According to elitistjerks blood dps is better at sustained and single target than uh or frost. And i have a good rl friend that keeps saying uh is better at dps than blood but can't beat me at it although he is a very good player. The other 2 specs probably appear higher on charts cause they are easier to play. :D
Ok. Ty, b raid would be nice too.  ;D

@Justa:
What do you mean?  :'( As a tank 2 things are most important: not dieing and having agro when i should. And i have no problems with agro.

@Abyiss:
Both specs work great for me so no need to change. I know all boss tactics except LK last phase.  :)
Title: Re: DK tank/dps for raid A/B
Post by: Intrinsic on August 02, 2010, 04:44:01 pm
Blood hasn't been better at single target than frost or uh for a while now.
As for charts, worldoflogs has frost as the highest ammount of players above a certain level of dps than the other 2 specs and it is by far the hardest spec to play (due to GoD).

Post by: Destro on August 02, 2010, 06:04:03 pm
The only way Blood DPS comes close to the other 2 specs is by Gemming for ARP and reaching the hard cap, which isnt even possible without DBW.

Even gemming fully for ARP you will still be 2k dps behind unholy and 3k behind frost.

Oh and frost DK tanks died out in Ulduar.

Both spec may do 'fine', but its not really optimal.

check out any DK worth his runes and every one will be blood.

@Intrinsic:
Yeah, you're right, the people that play frost or unholly are better at dps than the blood ones. :) And is probably cause that the potential maximum not just easier rotation... still not sure of that though. :)
Made some statistics on the average dps of top 40 (10 for LK) dk's on icc25 HC:

BossBLOODFROSTUNHOLLY
Marrowgar16366,217656,2817944,98
Deathbringer16982,5818184,8818131,1
Sindragosa12574,9513058,7814939,78
The Lich King9909,811239,213276,4

So yeah, blood seems inferior to the other 2 in all conditions like singletarget/multitarget, move fight/tank and spank. Going to try one of the other 2 specs for dps.  ;D

Ah, u are the Rambo from the GDKP run. I really liked that Gold DKP Raid idea, with wisely choosen members, it can work Flawlessly. Don't give up on that.
& For the application, good luck 
Title: Re: DK tank/dps for raid A/B
Post by: Rambo on August 02, 2010, 08:23:01 pm
Yeah, continuing with icc25 GDKP depends if my application will be accepted or not and most importantly if i will be in raids.  ;D I'm using wow-heroes to get good people in, but GS and achievements don't say too much. Meter dps/damage/heals and absorbs/fails/activity says the most. :D If the drops are good and raid is good the pot can get over 5k. Next GDKP is on friday 17:30 realm time as usual.

Cheers

The B-raids isn't really looking for another tank or melee dps, but with the summertime it is kind of hard to get a clear picture of our active raiders. So things can change quite rapidly, but for now we don't have a spot for you.
Title: Re: DK tank/dps for raid A/B
Post by: Eetion on August 03, 2010, 04:52:22 am
We could change out that crap one.. what was his name.. something with A... ab.. aby.. aby something.. He is absolute crapzor, have to look long for trash like him.. OH HAI BEN No homo<3.

To bump in. Tanks shouldn't, as Yoica says, be needed. We Currently run with Gaeios, Abyiss, Myself as proper Main Tankers, if you ofcourse look past the two first(Gaeios and Abyisscakenewb) and then we reasonly got Theel back in on the Tankboard and including that we also have a couple of good Offspecc alternatives (Yoica + Ildlar/Dpwnage).

Not that i have affect on recruitment at all. But i cant see how its possible to swap in another tank, and certainly not a Deathknight more to be fair, if any tank were really needed it would be a prot paladin for LOLdefender proc.
But all this is just my derping's and opinions and might not be right.

@Eetion:
After that explanation i kinda began to understand the replies i got. xD
My DPS spec is still low geared for your guild and i need to gear it up more in case a spot opens up for me.

When is going to be a team C then? :D
And do you take trials? Like just in case someone is missing i can fill their spot so you wont need to pug.

pretty sure even if you were really needed more than anything you'd still get a thorough shafting from our dk's before you get offered a trial. Many homo.

What "Trial of the Iron Edge(TM)" must i pass in order to get in your guild as a trial at least?  :D
I'm not going to steal no ones place, if there is no place in raiding for me i can continue with my own organized runs each week until a space opens and until i prove myself to you. ;D
no homo  ;)

If I read things correctly neither of the raids are interested. At least the B-raid isn't for sure.
Title: Re: DK tank/dps for raid A/B
Post by: Rambo on August 05, 2010, 12:28:41 pm
Yeah, i understood that "teams are full part". :D
But what happens if one of the tanks goes in vacation or just cant come at a raid? I should be able to join as a backup unless you got all backups settled too.
Like i said i'm not going to steal no ones place, if there is no place in raiding for me i can continue with my own organized runs each week until a space opens and until i prove myself to you.

There are more than 25 raiders in the b-raid.  There are non-tanks with tank off-specs for when that happens.
