Hello, Iron Edge!
I am applying for the main raid.
Character: Goatfelicia
Armory: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/Kazzak/Goatfelicia/advancedClass/Spec: Shaman (DPS)
Member Type: raider
Personal Info:Greeting,
I'm Semir, 20 years old, born in Bosnia & Hercegovina but moved to the Netherlands when I was around 5 years old. Currently studying Human Resource Management in college.
After playing fighting games (Street fighter, guilty gear etc.) and MMORPGS (Flyff, Runescape, Zu, Mu and WoW private servers) for several years I finally got a job and had the money to pay monthly for WoW retail and monthly sub fee. After losing my account in Pandaria, I had to rebuy the game in WoD and here we are now.
First class I ever played was a Ret paladin in 4.2 Firelands Cataclysm. That's when I tried serious PvE, but the private servers were so buggy that it was basically impossible. Ever since then I played PVP only getting up to 2k in Cata and Pandaland. WoD was a clownfiesta, that expansion made me reconsider life and everything within (PVP was so slow in comparison to MoP). Cleared heroic ToT with a friend only guild. Quit when SoO came out. Came back with a new account in WoD. Sadly never tried to PvE eventhough I heard very good things about the raids in WoD.
I've been a console gamer since I was a child. Just recently made the switch to PC gaming mainly because of the sick PC I built.
Class/Spec:I am playing Elemental shaman since the launch of legion. Used to play Enhancement (turbo cleave 3's) for PVP in earlier expansions. Currently equipped ilvl 904 with a 3 piece set of ToS (normal), 908 ilvl total.
My enhancement is 900 ilvl.
Gear: Intellect > Mastery till softcap (78%) > Crit strike > versatility then haste.
Rotation: Cast flame shock on the target for the 100% crit chance on lava burst.
After flame shock I would cast Elemental Blast if it's off cooldown for the boost it gives and the proc of my EotN % boost.
Lava burst is casted when available (especially in ascendence)
When maelstrom bar is full I cast Earth Shock.
Stormkeeper helps with using the buff you get for Lightning bolt (Which if filler in this spec)
What differs in AoE situations: Chain Lightning replaces LB for obvious reasoning. When round 50 maelstrom cast earthquake. Aside from that everything up until Lava Burst is the same.
Alts:No relevant specs as of now. I plan on leveling either a warlock or druid.
Professions:I have Herbalism and Inscription on my Shaman. Some cool cosmetic glyphs but that's about it
Raiding Experience:I've never been a hardcore raider. Cleared ToT HC with a friend only guild. Played a Ret paladin on private servers and Retail. Aside from that I don't have noticable PvE experience, mainly because of not being able to clear raids thanks to bugs in the private servers i played in.
Previous Guilds:Guild disbanded around SoO, same time I took a break of the game and lost my 1st account.
Availability:Basically every day except weekends. I work 8 hour shifts in the weekend + have a busy schedule with school. Around 8 pm till 1 am ideally
Communication:I can speak, write and understand 3 languages: English, Dutch and Bosnian/Serbian. I have TS and a working Mic.
Computer / Connection:Recently built a new PC with a 1070 and a i7-6700k Skylake. I have no FPS issues nor ping issues, which is around 20 ping.
Addons/UI:ElvUI: Easy setup and looks very organized.
Weakauras: Easy to keep track of every important cast
DBM: Helps a lot with bosses.
Skada: To check dps/healing etc.
Aside from that some time saving addons like the garrison addon and WQ one.
Other Games:Mainly fighting games like Tekken 7 and Guilty Gear rev. 2
Lately been playing a lot of singleplayer games as well, replaying witcher 3 for the third time.
Why Iron Edge?I'm honestly looking for a casual/semi-hardcore raiding group that can help me progress whilst having a good time as well. Having a good giggle with some guildies is something I miss considering how almost everyone I know has quit WoW. I see that you guys enjoy some banter as well, seeing as how your 'front cover' is filled with nicknames for the guild members.
Laughter is the best medicine isn't it ?
What can I offer Iron Edge?I'm someone who doesn't get bothered by progress. The reason why I mentioned I used to play fighting games is that I'm used to repeating the same process to actually learn what went wrong and how I can learn from it. I'm not stubborn and willing to learn especially if it's something I'm interested in. I have knowledge of all the classes and abilities. Now this might not be the most valuable asset to the team but it's something that is overlooked by many. Aside from the 'gaming skill' I am a social guy who is down to chill in TS / discord just for a chat. I combine skill with social competences for a fun but progressive raiding experience.
