3. My character Information:

Name: Rucious
Server: Talnivarr
Class and Spec: Paladin ? Ret/Tank ( Can be healer if wanted- want to be I guess)
Professions:  Enchanting - JC
Total time played: 196days
Time played this level: 24 days

- Armory Link:

-Upgrades: Gem choices, Spec choices:
Mastery is the key stat for Retri and Tank Paladins. After capping the hit and expertise everything else is reforged to Mastery in order to upgrade my dps.
Red Sockets; Strenght all the way (JC +67str)
Blue Sockets; If the socket bonus is like +20str I?ll socket +20str and +20hit for the bonus if not its +40str.
Yellow; if bonus gives mastery I?ll socket with +20str and +20mastery if not +40str.
Meta Gem; +54str and %3 Increased Crit Damage
Spec Choice is;  7/2/32
For the best damage outcome. Eye for an Eye has been proven to proc from direct magic damage and some untargeted spells. Examples are Shadow Nova from Halfus Wyrmbreaker and Scorching Breath from his Proto-Behemoth, Twilight Blast from the Double Dragons, Magma Spit from Magmaw, Arcane Storm from Maloriak, and so on.

-Off-spec:
Tank; I?ve been tanking our current 10m since I joined Exsul. Got good experience and gear. But I left there as well.(Kinda been kicked too)
Holy; when I first started the game I started as holy. So I?m pretty confident with all specs.


4. Experience including previous guilds:
- Write those instances you have completed in full.

-Vanilla: Haven't done. Started the game when TBC was live.

-TBC: I have done all raids and dungeons when TBC was live. BT cleared before nerf. Sunwell; did it till Mu'ru. When there was nerf patch, Mu'ru cleared. Couldn't kill KJ.

-WotLK: Have done all raids.
Naxxramas; Because of the summer holiday, I wasn't much active back in Turkey, so I couldn't do any achievements on time.

Mallygos 10/25; had them on time.

OS 3D 10/25; killed it on time.

Ulduar; Done most them with Dusk(previous name Tyrants as Horde on Dunemaul server, we were the realm 1st when downed the Yogg (normal). I had a 5 month break so only did Thorim and Hodir hard modes with them. After that I left because I quit wow(for 5months).

ToGC 4/5(Hc); Came back but couldn't kill Anub'arak and went to ICC.

ICC 10 {12/12normal [11/12 Heroic]}; didn't have enough time to kill the 10m LK hc.

ICC 25(12/12); Did everything with Iron Edge, had the server 2nd LK kill and unfortunately it was after nerf. It was a bit late because of the summer period, many people couldn't raid and we had hard times to fill the raids.

Cataclysm;

The Bastion of Twilight: 4/4 Normal, 1/4 Hc.
Throne of Four Winds: 2/2 Normal 1/2 Hc. Al?akir is PAIN!
Blackwing Descent: 6/6 Normal, 3/6 Hc.

- About your previous guilds:

Recently I have no guild, because I applied Crab People and they said they?d give me a trial spot but after trialling some other classes they couldn?t give me another trial spot. So when they said they?d give me trial spot I migrated and stayed there.

Exsul: Not very communicative guild, I transferred there because my friend asked me to play my paladin as tank, after 2-3 weeks of time, I haven't seen a single change in guild and it?s not really good for me. Yes its 10m again, because they're doing more heroics but I still didn't have a single fun and 10m is not exciting at all. Briefly, I couldn't settle down on this server and want to leave and start a new blank page.

Iron Edge: Impressive Guild. One of the best guild ever I've come across in my entire wow life. Never had so much fun with any others, they think wow is just another tool to communicate with people, and of course it was hardcore raiding guild. I joined them during ICC when they were doing heroics. Never felt like I'd leave this guild since Cataclysm launched. After Cataclysm we had 10mans, instead of 25m, due to lack of people and their availability. I was hoping that we could manage to form our 25m heroic raid back but it was hopeless. Since I wanted to raid in a 25m raiding guild, I thought it would be best for me to leave the guild and join a new one.

Dusk-Bladefist: Disbanded
Tyrants- Dunemaul(Wotlk) : Disbanded
Fallacy-Ahn Qiraj(TBC) : Disbanded
Stones- Ahn Qiraj: Disbanded
Incandescent-Ahn Qiraj(TBC): I started the game with Malagant and left for a while to have more experience. (Disbanded afterwards, now they?re formed again with Cataclysm.)

5. UI and style of play:
- Your add-ons and your game:

Omen; best threat addon ever.
Skada; To check damage, healing dones. To check what I died to.
PhoenixStyle; to check to is failing on what in which bosses to what spells etc. To check who is using potions, flasks and food.

Grid; Who has which debuff, what poisons and diseases. Best for healers.
Ardent Defender; this is for tank, to inform in raid chat that I?m using Divine Protection, Divine Guardian, Ardent Defender and other cooldowns. To announce if I kicked a spell or not.

CLCRet; even though I know what my ret rotation, I?m using this to check if my Inquisition is fading or not.

Quartz; My targets spell casting should be in middle of my screen above my portrait so that I can see it properly.

Pallypower; I don?t like to put might, kings and seals on my skill bar, so this is the best for using that to buff people and use the necessary seal.

BadBoy; auto report spammers.

DamnAchievementSpammer; If all guild takes a single achievement such as Heroic:Nefarian, all names will be together and There will be only one Achievement shown in the last which says X,Y,Z,W,Q person has earnt Heroic:Nefarian

MilkScrollingBattleText; shows my damage done on the far right, damage taken left to it and healing received to the left of the middle screen. As you can see in my UI.

- Screenshot / s of your UI:

UI Link Bindings
UI Link Raid Combat

- Experience using addons:
(You have problems when installing a new addon? Do you use any manager/client? Can you change the LUA code of the addons to fix mistakes or change things to your liking?)

No I don?t use any codes to change or fix an addon, instead I search for a similar or use (beta, alpha) versions.


6. Iron Edge and You

- Why you connect every day to the World of Warcraft?
I connect before raiding time; if I haven?t done daily heroic and my JC dailies etc I?ll do them before raid starts. If I have enough time during day, I do arena.

- Capacity to contribute ideas:
(What role do you adopt when it comes time to meet a new boss and create a new strategy, or if you see something not working?)

I do read tactics and watch videos that are already on forums. If there is something new I?ll most likely give my opinion when the time is true. In general I haven?t thought any question like this.

- You think you've hit the end with your character in World of Warcraft?
No I have not. Not until I finish my graduation. I want to enjoy every minute of the game I play until my graduation.

-Why do you choose Iron Edge?
Can?t say much but it is steady hardcore raiding guild that has humour and the skills to be fun improvement.

- What would you expect in Iron Edge?
I can be an honest, loyal friend to the guild. The most important of me is a solid devoted player with a brain to put to use in encounters. I will take criticism at its best and turn it too good use when being told to fill a role in an encounter.

- You have someone in Iron Edge that can speak to us for you?

Who doesn?t know the RAT?

7. To finalize...
I'm not only playing this game for fun but also I'm trying to make friends, so I want to make new friends anytime I get chance in guild. That's one of my achievements.

Thanks for reading.

Best,
Rucious
