- How long have you played WoW: Since Vanilla Beta
- Endgame experience (What bosses have you killed):
Vanilla- I was on Illidan playing my hunter which was my first character with some people from the old Team Ice and some people that are now in the guild Team Malice on Zul'Jin I cleared out all of the content.
BC- I cleared out all the content with a guild called Tribune at first. Then I created a guild called Living Legends and raid lead with my best friend and we raided until I ended up taking a break from the game.
Wrath- I came back to the game where I joined a guild called Occult and quickly became an officer. We cleared out all the content as well as being the only guild to get The Immortal and the original Glory of the Raider. I cleared out Ulduar and got all the server first achievements with a guild called Strife. When ICC was released I switched mains to a warlock and was an officer and got server first Heroic Lich King pre-nerf with Strife.
Cataclysm- I joined Gentlemens Club and quickly leveled up with them being the second warlock on the server to 85 while never being in the beta or seeing any of the quests. I was in for the entire top US kills in the first tier of raiding while topping meters and constantly performing so well that I had many top WoL parses for almost every boss. There are all the videos on the GC website to prove this as well. Before Firelands started I had a family member pass away so I could no longer focus on raiding like I wanted to and had to leave GC so I could go across country to take care of some family issues. I ended up starting my own guild and was the raid leader with some real life friends during Firelands and took it pretty casually going 6/7Heroic and had many sub 25% pulls on Rag, but like many guilds attendance was an issue and people decided they didn't want to put in the time to kill the boss. After Firelands I switched to my rogue as we had 0 melee in our guild and already had a decently geared rogue that I raided in the alt runs with. In Dragon Soul we were number 1 on the server and had many server first kills, but when our main tank and healer who were dating quit we had the same issue of attendance. It was to the point where we server transferred the guild to find people on a more populated realm. After much encouragement from my friends telling me it was ok to join a guild that shared my passion for raiding and I joined Whatever Were Awesome and went 8/8 Heroic with them.
Character Information:
- Name, & Class: Teemoh Rogue, but in Mists I plan on rerolling monk windwalker/mistweaver
- Race & why did you choose it: I chose Orc because personally I like the Blood Fury CD, as well as the axe's were nice for Firelands with the expertise. The EP values between Orc and Goblin were very small, so I chose Orc since the Hardness racial is decent for Pvp
- Link to Battle.net Armory: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/m ... moh/simple
- Can you describe the ruckus? Watch your tongue young man! Watch it!
- Professions and why did you choose them: I chose Eng/LW because they are arguably the best professions atm for rogues since the epic gems came out. I like the versatility that engineering brings with the Synapse springs and the nitro boosts. As well as the Ep value is around +80 like the other professions. LW is nice because I don't have to spend a million gold on LW enchants, as well as the +stats on the bracers give a great bonus to Agi.
- Spec, Dual spec. How often do you play other specs? My main spec is Combat, but my offspec is PvP sub because I pvp alot when I'm not raiding. I can also play Mut very proficiently even though it's a pretty simple spec, and I played it all throughout WotLK
- Explain your choice of gear for main & offspecs: My gear is the BiS for combat as well as the reforging that I have done prioritizing the spell hit cap, then 26 Expertise, and then reforging straight for haste as it is the best for combat. There are a few pieces that i could still use such as bracers and ring and the heroic Rag neck, but I have yet to see them drop for me.
- What glyphs do you use for each spec and why: I am using the basic cookie cutter prime and major glyphs that most combat rogues should use, Prime: Adrenaline Rush, SnD, Sinister Strike. They are all clear dps increases as the only other two glyphs that cold be used are Killing spree and revealing strike which don’t have as close to DPS values as the glyphs I use do. Longer AR is a clear increase, as well as SnD duration helps give some time in rotation making it a bit easier to manage, and obviuously a 20% chance in gaining a combo point in SS is a nice opportunity. Major: Blade Flurry, Tricks, Feint. I use BF because it helps out the most in fights where I BF which is about half the fights in DS, and having 50% less penalty to energy regen is great. Tricks because it helps out with my 2 piece as I can have that energy to keep attacking when I activate it. Finally feint because I tend to use it a lot especially on Morchock as I soak stomps, on Ultra to help healers, Zon’ozz as well for the ball bounces to help healers, and basically the fights that have damage that can be mitigated. It’s all about helping out my healers and making it easier for them.
- If you are applying as a DPS, what is your normal rotation? The optimal rotation for combat in essence is easy, but there are a few CD's that need to be used.
First: I like to start out with dropping my Battle Chicken for Engineering before comabt then switching my trinket back, for the possible 5% haste buff the chicken could possibly grant.
Secondly: Before the fight I prepot and tricks the person I am assigned to.
Finally: I go with my normal rotation of keeping up SnD, 4 SS then a Revealing Strike, and Evicerate. I use AR on cool down, as well as tricks, and tend to wait for killing spree until I have Full Bandits Guile since its a dps increase. Towards the end when we lust I pop another pot and push my buttons harder (jk).
- If you are applying as a healer, what spells do you use & when/why? N/A
- Highest PvP Rank on this character (vanilla & arena titles): My highest rank on my rogue is Warlord. I've been 2395 in Rbg's but my team stopped playing and I went with Pug's and I tanked to 2300
- Prior guild(s) & your reasons for leaving: I got accepted to WWA March 19th, but I do not enjoy the raid atmosphere. I am constantly told that I should not use core rogue abilities so that I don’t out dps other members of the raid such as blade flurrying adds. I'm not joking, I literally got yelled at in vent by another player to not bladeflurry so that their mages could try to get WoL rankings. They were extremely obsessed with trying to get certain people rankings so they can feel special. To ensure that my DPS is lower than it should be, they instructed the tanks and healers in vent to kill me and mess with me since I'm the "new guy" such as not healing me, BoP'ing me, Lifegripping me, etc. I have gone 8/8 HM DS with them. I left the guild because in vent this week they were being extremely malicious to certain people including me, and telling people that they should literally kill themselves for messing up a strat they hadn't known. Knowing what it's like to lose someone to bullying I can't be a part of that atmosphere. While I know the seriousness of the game and being an extremely competetive person myself I know the game can be heated, but at the end of the day people shouldn't have to feel like shit for not understanding something they were unsure of.
Other Information:
- A Screenshot of your character's UI: http://tinypic.com/r/14bqhwl/5
It's a very minimalistic UI with the basic interface as I'm used to it since I pvp all the time and that's just a habit and what works best for me. I have Omen that shows up above recount for raids. I use the standard blizzard raid frames that also show up for raid and parties. I use Slice Commander to track my combo points as well as slice and dice, feint, recuperate etc. I use DBM, and also Power Auras that help me during raid to track duffs and de buffs of a fight as well as tracking my Fury of the Destroyer. I also use Omni CC to track my CD's, oRA because I like to see all the raids cool downs being the raid leader I needed that, and tidy plates as well to help for fights like madness and yor'shajj. I also use skada, because recount has been really buggy and screws with my fps recently.
- WWS/Wowmeter/Worldoflogs reports (not optional):
April 03 - http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-jz2pwo6dwhxv2nu6/
March 27 – Morchok – Hagara http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-4wk1mzhgk7fo1tmc/
Ultraxion – Deathwing http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-g01dgigxsapg5ixy/
March 20 - http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-yqldnw9owd5zr1h6/
I explained to Grouch that during my time in WWA, they pretty much did whatever they could to be a distraction in raid and be counter productive. I can't even remember the amount of times that they would BoP me, Lifegrip me away from the boss/into shit, also let me die without healing just for laughs. As well as misdirecting the boss to me to try to get me killed since I was the "new guy". Normally I'm all about having fun and being silly in raid, but when it affects my logs and I'm trying to make a good impression in guild, then it gets frustrating.
- Alts & their name/level: My main alt is my lock name Karmaah which I got all my US top kills with GC on, other than that I have an 85 of every class on a bunch of different servers. http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/a ... aah/simple Thats the link to my lock
- Out of game contact information (AIM/MSN/etc): [email protected]
- How did you find us? Is there anyone you know in Simple Math?: I don't know anyone in Simple Math, but there was a friend of mine who used to raid with you guys and said the atmosphere was great.
- Why Simple Math? Is there anything else you'd like to tell us? I want to join the guild because it is a pinnacle of raiding as well as a solid core of members that share the same passion for the game that I do. I have a lot to offer the guild and not only just in the raiding aspect of the game, but PvP and years of leadership experience. I have spent numerous tiers of raiding with top guilds, and have experienced the thrill of starting a new expansion. I have the experience of leveling as fast as possible and grinding instances early in an expansion and rep for gear to be the top guild not only on the server, but to strive for US and World top kills. I have lead multiple guilds and been an officer in most of the guilds that I have been in. I understand the dynamics of players and their skill sets and adapt to situations in guild that can be hard to get through such as players being burnt out and quitting. I like to think of myself as extremely loyal because once I find a guild I like I will stay in there until the guild pretty much disbands or something in my life arises. Only one time where this affected me to the point I had to leave a top guild because a family member died and I had to take care of many things at that time. Ultimately I would be trying to join the guild on my rogue, but I plan to be a Monk in Mist and would play any spec that is needed of me, although I have more of a passion for Windwalker (Dps) or Mistweaver (Healer)
- What kind of computer do you use? CPU/Memory/Video Card? Typical FPS during a 25-man raid? I have an Imac 2.66 GHz Intel core i5. It's a pretty newish computer and it runs WoW pretty smoothly. I have Verizon Fios with cable modem, so unless there is some sort of extreme storm that knocks all the power out, I don't DC.
- What kind of internet connection do you have? Run an internet speed test against New York at speedtest.net Link the results below. http://imgur.com/Aad6t
- Finally, we ask that you draw us a picture using MS Paint. (This is not optional).Unfortunately I don't have MS paint since I have a Mac, but I did my best to make an image in Word on one of my favorite videos of all time.
