Title: [K-raid] Corai, melee dps; enhancement shaman
Post by: Corai on October 25, 2011, 08:17:57 pm
Hear ye hear ye!

Personal info

So, as you all probably know by now, its'a me, mari...err...legintown...
Like I wrote in the other app, I study communications at the Univeristy of Southern Denmark in Slagelse atm. Besides that just chilling with wow and 9gag.
I was encouraged to apply to the newly formed K-raid, so I'll emphasize mostly on in-game issues, and keep the Legintown stuff to this topic: http://www.iron-edge.co.uk/index.php?topic=6522.msg116854#msg116854

Character info

Name: Corai
Level: 85
Class: Shaman
Spec: Enhancement
Armory: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/dunemaul/Corai/advanced

I is probably no big surprise that I'm playing as enhancement, since I've played the spec for quite some time. I still check up regularly for updates on theorycrafting etc. Atm I have JC/Mining as professions, but if you want me to get something else instead of mining, I'll level it up asap. It will most likely be BS. I know my gear is not exactly mind-blowing, but its the best I've been able to get so far, more or less on my own. I do have all the best enchants+gems possible.

Off spec

Sadly I currently do not have proper gear for a 2nd spec, but as you might remember, healing as a shaman is not totally unfamiliar to me. If we at some point desperately need a resto shaman in the raid, I can change my role and heal instead.

Playstyle

If I had to use one word to describe my playstyle, it would probably be "holistic". Why that choice of word? I've gone from a more aggressive style of trying to max output at almost any cost, to a more holistic approach where I take raid utility much more into consideration, for instance in my choice of glyphs and the occasional use of healing spells. I always bring flasks and food to the raid and read up on tacs or watch videos if necessary.

Addons

I always like to keep my UI simple to be able to play as independant of addons as possible, and not to have too much flashy stuff going on on my screen. The raid addons I currently use are:

X-perl raid frames
Bertender4
OmniCC
Recount

Misc. addons:
Atlas loot
Bagnon

Raiding

I will be able to raid every weekday at normal raiding hours (19.30-24.00). On the weekends I will most likely be able to raid from a much earlier hour.

System info

Motherboard: Asus Striker II extreme
CPU: Intel Q9550 @ 2.83GHz Clocked to 3.46GHz
Memory: 8Gb Kingston Hyper DDR3 @ 1600MHz
GFX: AMD Radeon HD 6970

Hey Legin!  I always liked you.  You had your moments, sure, but you was a nice guy overall.

Good luck!

You sound like a nice guy really and hopefully you'll be up to the task so I don't see why to dwell on the past.

Look at Sky showing his nationalist roots... again...

I don't personally have a problem with you, Legin, but the subterfuge in joining the guild was pretty awful.

Can you think of any way to make amends?

To continue on that. I'm missing the "im sorry for being a total asshat when i wasnt allowed back in on the other sneaky account and then continued to flame Iron Edge and Delling in particular on dunemaul.org for all of eternity"

You were so so bitter and gave so much flack. Why has that changed now? It's a long time ago and people don't really care anymore but you in particular along side with Brother where among the most vile little flamers we ever had.

If you have now "matured" i don't mind the enhancement shaman who left us one boss before the of the expansion in returning.

Cause then... we can discuss 9/11 some more :P

You have shown that you dont mind lying to get what you want which you have shown now on several occasions.

If Kesh wants you for his raid I trust his judgement but I would not give you any kind of trusted position in the guild until you have regained our trust that you are not a complete whackjob.

It was more a case of, we took Kage in (well sort of..) so I don't see a problem if Legintown can cut a deal somehow to make amends with the people in the guild that have been in the guild longer than I have.

But at the end of the day, it's not up to me!

Please note that I do not want this to be a flame post and I am not trolling, but honestly how can we accept Corai when he lied to get back in. Dont get me wrong, Corai does seem to be a nice guy from the dealings I have had with him, but what comes to mind is the whole Kage situation. In the end, it isn't up to me or my opinion, but I do find this to be rather hypocritical.

Legintown's behaviour, lying and flaming dwarves anything Kagemoth ever did :P

About deals.
If Legintown scans a written letter with his signature saying " 9/11 was not an inside job" the issue is resolved for me.

He comes across as somewhat a sociopath :P Or a schizophrenic

For the record Legintown, I'd kick your sorry psycho ass out of the guild.
You don't have to be in the guild to raid with Daekesh, if he so desperately wants that.

from what people have said he doesnt sound like the most reliable/trustworthy person around. do we really want to take him into our 10m core?
Title: Re: [K-raid] Corai, melee dps; enhancement shaman
Post by: Gaeios(Graxlos) on October 26, 2011, 10:58:55 am
depends what you want, he was a reliable and skilled raider until he left for nihilum. But as a person he certainly seem to have some flaws.

From my experience psycho sociopaths are the best raiders

I also remember you as a pleasant person (with strong opinions, mind you) untill you suddenly left for Nihilum. Which sucked. Lying about yourself to get back in is also a bit bad, because honestly we could probably have forgiven you if you had just been straightfaced with the whole thing instead of trying to cheat your way back into the guild.

I dunno. I think it does speak a bit to his commitment to rejoining that he'll go to such great lengths to get back in, even if it's in his own dishonest sociopathy way. Kind of like a serial killer sending you scarfs knitted from the hair of his victims because he likes you...

If some of you want to raid with him, by all means go ahead. I just wouldn't give him access to the guild bank.

Does this mean you still love me?

We need some responses, Legin.

I am most interested in all the flaming you did on Dunemaul.org, after leaving IE.

As you know, many people come and go, but we rarely let 'enemies of the state' back in.

I had hoped that we could keep the personal stuff in the other post, and the in-game related issues concerning gear/spec/gems etc etc. in this post.

I'll quickly answer some of the posts made here, and then encourage people to continue the Legintown-discussion in this post: http://www.iron-edge.co.uk/index.php?topic=6522.msg116854#msg116854

@ Delling: It was actually me who shot Ghadaffi, does that make amends?  ;D
To be totally honest, I dont remember what and where I wrote what about any persons or the guild. But I do remember being bitter, and to be honest, even though what I did was wrong in any or all ways, I actually think the attacks on me were(as I remember them) a bit over the top. I dont say this to "justify" what I wrote, but it is as if it is presented as a one-sided coin, or a picture of me is being painted like "a wolf among sheeps" if you know what I mean. Again, I'm not trying to say that you should in any way respect what I wrote, but at the very least understand that there was a reason for my bitterness. In any case, I really do not remember what I wrote on dunemaul.org, and if I crossed the line or offended anybody, I'm sorry.

@ Cwave: On the other post I've apologized for the charade and why I did it. About me leaving back then and why it has changed, is simply my reason for playing this game now end then. Back then I played to it achieve as much as possible; recognition of skill, fame and what not, I totally admit that. I also admit that a totally tread on you and the entire guild in the process. It was a selfish and egoistic move, I'll never dispute that, and for that I sincerely apologize. But the reason I play it now, is ofc because I love the game, but the social aspect is much more important, because all the good memories from the game arent from being #1 dps or full epics, but from the moments on VT/TS etc. And yeah lets discuss 9/11 some more I dont mind^^

Any other issues that we need to deal with? PS: do it here: http://www.iron-edge.co.uk/index.php?topic=6522.msg116854#msg116854
