Title: B-raid app, Lycanus retribution paladin
Post by: Lycanus on February 24, 2010, 01:01:05 am
Hey guys been wanting to apply to IE for some time , but been trying to make my current guild work as it has finally in my eyes fallen completely through the earth and is bubbling in its molten core atm, so I decided now would be as good a time as any, also I was told to be carefull of trolls while applying :E


Personal Information

Yo guys my name is Aidan Green , yes just like the colour its that awesome, I come from a UK family that lives in South Africa in a town weirdly called east london. Im a student for the passed 4 years now , I kept changing courses at first BSc in com sci, then to Inf Systems, then I changed to psychology and now im back on inf systems again :). Im 21 years old I still live with my mother, I have no life and no girlfriend to mess up my wow play time! *sad panda*.


Character Information

armory link = http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Dunemaul&cn=Lycanus

My chars mainspec is retribution - also I should add its got a different talent set up that I was testing out it can be changed back if u dont agree with it , my current offspec is Prot foir easier badge grinding and such , but I also have gear for holy  all of which are decent.

Weirdly enough this will be the 3rd member from After Life applying to ur guild :P i raided first with my sham in 3.1 in after life then i rerolled ot my paladin and raided ulduar 25 man and ToC 25 and first few bosses from heroic there then all my RL mates decided it would be fun to faction change so we all switched ovah to horde. I have accumalated 60 days play time on this toon 42 of which have been at lvl 80. Since ICC came out ive been raiding in a guild Called instinct which main progress is at 10 man icc --- fail epicly at 25 man -.- they only killed up to rotface SO LAME. I do love them and all <3 but the guild progress is hugely lacking and Im tired of it. before wotlk I never raided on my pally just on my shaman and as this is a app for my paly see no point in going into that :).

Professions:

Enchanting max,
Blacksmithing max,


Raiding
I can raid all days of week I have no life like I mentioned above! only studdies during the day from 8am till 4pm and most of the time I bunk anyway!


Gaming and World Of Warcraft history
hmm I have been gaming since i was bout 15 thanks to Föötmunch -.- he got me addicted to warcraft 3 online playing when wow came out I bought it and i haev been playing it ever since! I raided in pre tbc with my hunter did MC and BWL never went AQ though , then in tbc I rerolled sham but still raided partially on hunter but on sham did everything up to BT , didnt go to SWP, i miss some of the bosses on those raids though , combination of fail guilds and such like , as i said before in wotlk i started with raiding with After Life  then rerolled paladin , and started raiding with them again i did naxx/os/maly/ulduar/toc with after life attemped first view bosses of toc heroic never finished it on 25 man though , got the the tribute to mad skill achivement for 10 man though >< had 48 tries or soemthing was so lame.
then I moved to instinct , were i ahev been raiding icc - in 10 icc we got up to sindragose but poeple fail at tactics so ofcourse we nevah killed her , in 25 man its even worse cus more people = way more fail! only went up to rotface.



Why do you want to join Iron Edge?

bascially I want to raid 25 man content and actually progress I dont mind wipe fests but would be nice to progress even just a little and since IE offers this it is perfect! also I have my best rl m8 in ur guild already so its a added bonus to tell you all about the dirty german Footmunch and his drunken adventurs in the back of some random persons truck  who didnt know he was there! but you only here this if I get in :P jks.

What can I offer to Iron Edge?

hmm , a funny south african raider , who knows wtf he is doing in raids likes to progress! and loves wow so much that his wow > rl ! offering awesomness! only 5 dollah!


Last words?
Hope u enjoyed reading my app , and I hope I have impressed you or atleast midly allerted ur attention spans :) hope to here from u soon .

ciao,
Lycanus

I looked at your gear last night. It is good, on par or better than mine. There are 2 things you need to change.

First of all put a [item]Nightmare Tear[/item] in your chest instead of a [item]Sovereign Dreadstone[/item] and that trinket really really really sucks. You are sitting on 409 hitrating and you only need 263 so even w/o the trinket you are over the hitcap. Either get the frost badge [item]Herkuml War Token[/item] or [item]Mirror of Truth[/item] if you don't have enough frost.

You have enough time to do it since we don't raid until monday  ;) Assuming you get a trail which imo you should get.

hmm wat bout a darkmoon car greatness instead of the 200ilvl badge one ? reckon that would be better overall wouldnt it?

Post by: Narw on February 24, 2010, 04:27:33 pm
Since dk mechanics are so similar to ret ones im gonna do a wild guess that yes, greatness is way better. So if you have it or can obtain it instead of this terrible hit trinket/mirror edge you should do so.

Hiya.

So, I wasn't really looking for another Ret Paladin, however, you made a good application, and have good gear (excepting one trinket) and have got a thumbs up from our current awesome retri Paladin, Yoica. So, I am willing to give you a trial, to see if you can be the DPS machine, you have the potential to be.

So if you are unsaved this week to ICC, be online at 7:15pm (server time) Monday, and give me a whisper.

If you are already saved, let me know, and I will try to fit you in a trial next week.
