Raider Application - Mage (DPS) - Navarin

[Applicant]

Hello, Iron Edge!

I am applying for the main raid.

Character: Navarin
Armory: https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-gb/character/eu/Kazzak/Navarin
Class/Spec: Mage (DPS)
Member Type: Raider

Personal Info:

Name: Philip Rasmussen
Age: 26
Location: Denmark
Occupation: Work full time as a QA tester and UX designer on a Ray-tracing software called KeyShot

About me:
Hi, other than the above, I live with my GF and two cats. I go to work, do sports (Jogging and Cycling mostly), and play video games... A lot of video games.

I just transferred to Kazzak from Ravencrest Alliance.
I am applying together with Anthon, one of my best friends. He has writtten a separate application.

Class/Spec:

I prefer Frost > Arcane > Fire, in that order.
I just find frost more fun to play with, I love the procs. It's simple, yet effective.
Fire is my least favorite because I'm not a huge fan of Hot streak. It's still fun to play though!

I just rerolled to mage again, and so I haven't really played it in BFA, and thus have no gear worth mentioning. I do not plan on raiding until Shadowlands, outside of maybe Heroic.

As mentioned above, I just rolled to mage again, so I have not really bothered looking into all of that while I'm still running around with green items

I will say though, that I am a heavy user of bloodmallet, raidbots, raider.io, simulationcraft, wowhead, mmo-champion, warcraftlogs etc. Pretty much all of it. I like knowing what the hell is going on

Alts:

My primary alt would be my Rogue and Paladin.
My paladin I have not really played this expansion.
My rogue: https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-gb/character/eu/ravencrest/hailkor
I do not have any other relevant alts on Kazzak yet.

Professions:

I am currently planning to do enchanting / tailoring in Shadowlands

Raiding Experience:

I've always played DPS as main spec.

5/8 Mythic in Uldir pretty fast (with Eversio - Ravencrest)
2/10 Mythic in Blackrock Foundry
6/7 Mythic in Highmaul (Guild Leader)
5/14 Mythic in Siege of Orgrimmar
5/8 Heroic Dragon Soul (Guild Leader)
13/14 Ulduar (I didn't kill Algalon)
7/12 Heroic Icecrown Citadel

Did play Classic and TBC, but didn't raid

Previous Guilds:

As of recent times I've only raided with Eversio in Uldir.
I decided to stop raiding, because I did not find it enjoyable to raid, or do m+ with them. They also raided a lot (4 days a week in the beginning), so that also took it's toll on me.

Availability:

  I work roughly 8-16 week days. I don't really have anything scheduled in the evening, so nothing really comes in the way for raiding.

Communication:

I'm quite proficient in English. My work place use it regularly as we have many employees from Europe. I also worked in Support for half a year, where most of our customers are from around the world.

Computer / Connection:

The primary highlights of my setup I suppose is:
Primary monitor: 27 inch 1440p 144 hz
Secondary: 27 inch 4k 60 hz
GPU: GTX 1080 TI (planning to buy the new RTX 3080)
CPU: Intel 8600K Overclocked to 4,8 ghz.
Harddrive: 500 gb m.2
Connection: 200/200 Mbit/s Wired

Addons/UI:

A slightly personified ElvUI for most of my UI.
Plater for nameplates.
BigWigs because it seems become better than DBM sometime during Legion.
Details for Damage meter

I am familiar with Exorsus raid tools and RCLootCouncil, but don't currently have them installed.

Other Games:

I used to play a lot of Dota 2
Other than that:
Witcher 3
Pillars of Eternity
Risk of Rain 2
Path of Exile
Divinity Original Sin
Assassins Creed
Slay the Spire
Magic the Gathering
Dungeons and Dragons
Dark souls
Apex Legends

The list goes on...

Why Iron Edge?

I'm looking for a fun guild with a relaxed atmosphere that get things done.
I hope to be part of activities outside the raid, doing m+, arena, etc.



What can I offer Iron Edge?

A good player, who can take responsibility and feedback. Someone who likes to have fun, and who genuinely likes playing the game, and has been doing so for 15 years.

Where did I hear about Iron Edge?

Wowprogress

Last Words?

Oh no, is this where I die?!?

Thanks for reading my application!
