Character Information:

- Name, & Class: Aku, Warlock
- Race & why did you choose it: Undead, because all Horde races are almost equal to each other anyways. Orcs are pretty strong, but they lose their effectiveness with Warlock's tier 14 bonus. Player error equates for more lost damage than race choice ever will.
- Link to Battle.net Armory: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/b ... Aku/simple
- Can you describe the ruckus? : If any of this needs explaining, I'll explain it when asked about it.
- Professions and why did you choose them: Tailoring, because it's easily the strongest profession for caster DPS. Blacksmithing, because I didn't care what the second profession was. I chose not to go Engineering simply because I wouldn't be able to stack the synapse springs with any on-use trinkets I might come across.
- Spec, Dual spec. How often do you play other specs? : I've been maining as Affliction so far, but recently I've been working on learning Destruction. Destruction is much better than SimC suggests (because they model ember spending really poorly), and there's been talk of possible Afflction nerfs in 5.2. So I'm learning now before I'm forced to.
- Explain your choice of gear for main & offspecs: It's pretty simple for Warlocks. As both specs, I only have 3 pieces of tier, so I'm lacking that. I also have the hood from heroic Garalon, so I can't afford to pass that up as an offpiece for the time being either. For stat priorities, I keep it pretty basic, and I'm willing to go into more detail if askes.
- What glyphs do you use for each spec and why: There are no mandatory glyphs for any warlock spec (other than Soul Shard and Burning Ember glyphs, which are becoming baseline effects in 5.2 anyway.) After that, I simply pick the glyphs that might give me a tactical advantage on a fight-by-fight basis.
- If you are applying as a DPS, what is your normal rotation? : As Destruction, the priority I use is as follows:

+CoE
+Shadowburn (target health <20%)
+Chaos Bolt (with Int procs)
+Immolation
+Incinerate (Backdraft)
+Conflag
+Chaos Bolt (embers >3)
+Incinerate
+Chaos Bolt (With no Int procs)

- If you are applying as a healer, what spells do you use & when/why?: - -

- Highest PvP Rank on this character (vanilla & arena titles): lol, pvp.

- Prior guild(s) & your reasons for leaving: I've been through a lot of guilds in the past, and I hae somewhat of a curse for joining guilds that end up falling apart soon after I join them. I'm only trialing with my current guild, but I'm applying elsewhere just in case things don't work out here, or in case I get a better deal.
