Title: Social Application - Warrior (Tank) - Teyro
Post by: Applicant on April 03, 2019, 09:40:43 pm
Hello, Iron Edge!

I am applying to be a social member.

Character: Teyro
Armory: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/Kazzak/Teyro/advanced
Class/Spec: Warrior (Tank)
Member Type: Social

Personal Info:

My name is Robert and I'm a 29 year old male from The Netherlands. I've been married for 3 years and I'm a game programmer. I was a Lead Programmer for a big mobile game studio until it closed just recently. Now I enjoy my time off working on my own game, playing Warcraft again and applying to the major studios in Europe.

Class/Spec:

I love tanking. Having been a healer for all of vanilla, I've never gone back from tanking after picking it up in Wrath of the Lich King. I like how dynamic the gameplay is during boss fights, continuously repositioning the boss and myself, while keeping possible adds from my party members. I like it a lot more than perfecting the combination of 5 buttons as a DPS and staying out of the fire or keeping everyone's healthbar the right shade of green. For levelling I'm Fury, the added health generation makes it easy to keep going and taking on large groups.

Alts:

I have one level 120 Night Elf Death Knight on a now dead realm, linked with other dead realms, together with a whole bunch of level 90's and lower.

Professions:

I used the 110 boost that came with BFA to start this new Horde character on Kazzak, so it doesn't have any professions yet.

Raiding/PVP Experience:

In vanilla, I got as far as clearing the plague quarter in Naxxramas as a healer. Being impacted by the fact that all my work was undone by the release of The Burning Crusade and its new gear I played more casual. I had a 3v3 arena team that managed to get the highest rating of the realm at that time, which was around 1800. I also ran a casual raiding group to Karazhan, Gruul and Magtheridon as a tank and raid leader for a while until I took first break. I picked up playing and raiding again in Wrath of the Lich King and Pandaria, clearing both expansions as a tank.

Previous Guilds:

I have been in quite a few guilds, almost always focused on raiding. The only time I would 'leave' a guild was when I took a break from Warcraft and come back to see the guild didn't exist anymore.

Availability:

Right now I spend my afternoons working on my own projects or doing interview assignments. My job would be a 9-5 workweek.

Communication:

My english is fluent and I have a headset + microphone.

Computer / Connection:

I have a high-end PC, no issues there.

Addons/UI:

Currently I just have Deadly Boss Mods and a threat meter for tanking. My UI can be viewed here: https://prnt.sc/n72qvx

Other Games:

Since I’ve started studying and working in the games industry I’ve appreciated games with strong narrative and an overall great player experience. Some of my favorite games are Bioshock, older Resident Evil installments (plus remakes) and The Last of Us. Currently I’m also playing The Witcher III and Dark Souls III. I also have Hearthstone and Rocket League that I play continuously inbetween.


Why Iron Edge?

I'm impressed by how long your guild has existed and I'd like to be a part of group of people that have played as long as I have.

What can I offer Iron Edge?

I love collecting mounts, so I'm setting up groups to do older content that still require multiple bodies for certain achievements. Same goes for Timewalking events, farming rares and unique content like the riddles. Being able to bring guild members makes it even better.

Where did I hear about Iron Edge?

The Kazzak forum :)

Last Words?

It was Gamon all along.
