Title: [25 man casual raid] Paladin (DPS) - Bombtrack
Post by: Jedleh on June 21, 2013, 02:52:41 am
Character: Bombtrack
Armory: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/kazzak/Bombtrack/advanced
Class+Spec: Retribution Paladin
Application: 25 Man Casual Raid

Personal:

Hey I'm Jed, I'm 16 years old and I'm finishing High School the day I post this, meaning I've got 11 weeks to raid and after that I would love to continue.

Character:

I've played as a Paladin for quite a long time, probably 5 and a bit years, and for the most part I've been retribution. I enjoy my class and spec, and due to my 75 days of play time I consider myself quite adept at playing it. I don't utilise my off spec at the moment and it is currently just PvP.

Professions:

The professions on Bombtrack are Blacksmithing and Enchanting, they are 600 and I have a lot of recipes in Blacksmithing, I can make all the 522 Helms and Boots.

WoW Experience:

Due to my 6 years in the game I've amassed a decent amount of experience, I've been PvE for probably 5.5 years and that's where I'm best. During TBC I was only quite young, fairly unskilled and not very competitive, during WotLK I strived to be better and during Naxxramas Era, I reached the position of 300th in quality of gear on my old realm Frostwhisper, which was then a medium-high population. I continued to perform well for the rest of WotLK (perhaps aside from ToC, did not enjoy that.) At the very end of WotLK I stopped playing, I only picked the game back up halfway through Dragon Soul, did not get much progress done as I certainly was not enthusiastic about Cataclysm. I've been playing on and off for most of Pandaria and only now I've decided I need a good guild to enjoy the game, I've achieved 6/12 in ToT and that was my first run.

Gaming:

I play games for the majority of my free time, WoW is the game I've played the most (by a large margin) but I have also enjoyed games such as the Elder Scrolls series, Star Wars: The Old Republic and various others.

Guilds:

I'm afraid I don't know the guilds I was in during WotLK. In Cataclysm I was in the Guild "constipation" (I did not name it) on Frostwhisper and it was the guild with the 2nd highest progress on the realm. In Pandaria I was recently in the Guild Apotheosanity who are ranked at 45th on the realm.

Availability:

I'm available all the time, never more so than during my 11 weeks of summer. I promise good attendance.

Why I want to join and what I will offer:

I want to join Iron Edge because it is clearly interested in a high standard of play, just from reading the applications here I can tell you demand a high standard and that you receive a high standard, I spoke to Safira regarding my application to the guild and he represented the guild well and seemed nice. I believe that I can offer the high standard of play you clearly expect, from my years of experience in the game and with my spec, and from my interest in playing the current content and achieving highly in it.

Connection:

My internet works well, never higher than 40ms connection on wow and I will be upgrading soon so that will get better.

Communication:

I'm English by nature so I can speak that well. I've got a good, functioning headset and I have ventrilo. If you use a different program I can get that at a moment's notice.

Last Words:

I have a GCSE further maths exam in 7 hours and I can't sleep.

Thanks for considering me.

Nice application. Everything seems good to me.

It'd be nice if someone with more knowledge about ret paladins could say something though.

Hi there, thanks for making an application. Your gear and experience are a bit on the low side although all the gemming, reforging and enchants look fine.

Seems you've been a bit unlucky with weapon drops although you should've had more then 4 council and 2 lei shen lfr kills by now.

You'll need to wait for one of the raiding officers for a final answer.

Since we have no paladins at the moment I dont see a reason not to trial you.

Poke an officer for invite.
