Character Information:
- Name, & Class: Rxqueenie Paladin
- Race & why did you choose it: Human, every man for himself
- Link to Battle.net Armory: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/g ... nie/simple
- Can you describe the ruckus?
- Professions and why did you choose them: enchanting and jewel-crafting. (both of which are max'd) I have every cata enchant including intellect, strength, agility to bracer as well as landslide, powertorrent, and windwalk. My jewel-crafting also has agility and strength meta cuts. I chose them for the extra enchants on rings and the better gems, I also make quite a bit of gold with them.
- Spec, Dual spec. How often do you play other specs? Prot/Prot Pvp. I havent played ret since prior to 4.0 and I have never played holy. And I play prot pvp weekly to get points for pvp gear to disenchant for my weapon enchants.
- Explain your choice of gear for main & offspecs: I go for gear with stam and damage mitigation as well as avoidance. Most of my gemming has to do with stam or mastery. Since mastery increases my block I find this a very useful tool.
- What glyphs do you use for each spec and why: As prime I use Seal of Truth (expertise), Word of Glory (extra self heals), Hammer of the Right (better aoe). For Major I use Focused shield (better threat), Aescitic Crusader (my most hit spell using less mana), Lay on Hands (so I can LOH myself, or even the other tank on chimaeron at 22% so that he can be full health going into the final phase)
- Highest PvP Rank on this character (vanilla & arena titles): I just recently got into PvP so none worth mentioning.
- Prior guild(s) & your reasons for leaving: I tanked everything throughout wrath in the appropriate patch without being over geared. I am currently 12/12. I have been maintank for all 12 fights in cata along with all throughout wrath. I have not been with riot very long. I joined them in january. My guild faction changed to ally right before cata came out and we were top on our server under damage networks. They then decided they had no interest in raiding, 10 or 25 man. My favorite aspect to the game is raiding. This devastated me, so I appd to riot and on my first day of trial helped them down chimaeron and in my first week helped them down ascendants council and chogall. The rate of progression is slow because they tend to take two locks that pull 10k consistently, and take them only because they have been in the guild for so long and are officers. I had problems with them taking older people regardless of the fact they werent on par with anyone else but I kept my mouth shut because its not my place to bring this sort of thing up. I then watched them turn down an applicant who out-dps'd people because a girl in the guild didn't like him who is conveniently one of the coordinators live-in gf. Everything in this guild is based on who you know or are friends with as opposed to skill and I am just not a fan of it.
Other Information:
- A Screenshot of your character's UI: http://img843.imageshack.us/i/wowscrnsh ... 30031.jpg/
My UI is tuckui elv edit. On the right hand side you see trade/loot. That is minimized at the beginning of a fight to show omen (threat meter). Over on top of my horizontal bars on the right you see 3 names including myself. This is where tanks for the fight are listed. That side bar also includes my food, flasks, mounts, blessing of kings, and my enchanting and jewel-crafting. (both of which are max'd) I have every cata enchant including intellect, strength, agility to bracer as well as landslide, powertorrent, and windwalk. My jewel-crafting also has agility and strength meta cuts. I have bound to 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 the following in this order: avenger shield, crusader strike, judgement, shield of the right, holy wrath, hammer of the right, and consecrate. I use wog after i establish initial threat. I make my inital pull by popping divine plea (3x holy power) avenging wrath inquisition hand of reckoning and then i start my rotation. I find this gives me the best snap threat possible for a pally tank. I also have my trinkets and earthen pots on my bar along with health stone and everyman for himself.
I browse websites such as elitist jerks and maintankadin to keep up to date with my class and gemming/enchanting and reforging.

- Alts & their name/level: Minerva (fury warrior lvl 83)
- Out of game contact information (AIM/MSN/etc):skype? verysillyheather
- How did you find us? Is there anyone you know in Simple Math?: No, I do not know anyone in simple math. A friend of mine suggested I post on the guild recruitment and I did. One of your recruiting officers posted that I should check you out and so I did.
- Why Simple Math? Is there anything else you'd like to tell us? I can promise that I will make raid times promptly every night and be ready with flasks food etc. I will also come prepared by watching videos of content I have not seen and reading up strats for them as well. I am not one for guild drama and have no interest in becoming romantic with any guy online. I just want a guild that progresses and puts forth 110% when it comes to raiding and a friendly environment outside of raids. I can handle criticism as long as it is constructive. I cannot stand to listen people call each other dumbass mother fuckers and then have nothing to say on how they can improve or change what they did wrong.
- What kind of computer do you use? CPU/Memory/Video Card? Typical FPS during a 25-man raid? As far as my computer goes, some have described it as a spaceship crashed in my bedroom. I have never dc'd during a fight. Only time I have internet problems is during hurricanes. (corei7, 465gtx, 8 gigs of ram) 35-60 fps.

Videos?
I have the following videos (not shot by me or in my p.o.v. but in our gm's-he is a rogue)

- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnA66EH2 ... re=related (chimaeron)
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKw-lGV-zxA (ascendants council)
- Yes I have a mic and I use it when its necessary, for instance if you watch the nefarian video, its my job to call out the availability of divine guardian from myself and noila (ms ret...but he went prot to tank onyxia). Trying to time crackles and telling others to use a cd etc. I also use it for calling out pulls. And any other miscellaneous things that need to be called out while tanking.
AND MORE RANDOM INFORMATION THAT I DIDNT KNOW WHERE TO STICK :
I have a bachelors of science in nursing with a minor in math, however I currently work for my father selling liquified petroleum gas from plant to plant.
I joined Gorefiend back in June of 2010 due to friends transferring. They decided shortly after to stop playing wow, and that pretty much left me on a server full of 12yr olds and 45yr old men with their pants on too tight. I am wanting to join for end game content. I know I am not as geared because I have not seen heroics, and I am set to get my helm or shoulder token this week which will enable me to put on my 4pc. (We use epgp so now that everyone ahead of me has theirs, I can get mine) I am a solid tank. I know how to effectively use cooldowns and I am great at calling things out. My spec might need to be changed. It caters to riot who has 1-2 good healers and a lot of mediocre. I only use sotr in the first 30 seconds when building threat is important.The rest of the time I use my holy power for wog. Yes this will be sad for me come next patch when they give it a cd, however I will be able to adjust accordingly.
Thanks for taking the time to review my app.
Here is a flow chart that sums up my rotation, as far as maximizing threat. I do swap out sotr for wog though.
