Character Information:
- Name, & Class: Bitrix, Shaman
- Race & why did you choose it: Originally i chose orc because it was the only horde race that had a decent racial dps racial. I knew that i was planning to raid with em and wanted to "min/max" only after i really got into enhance did i learn just how important it was to be an orc.

- Can you describe the ruckus? im going to assume this is an inside joke, but ill humor you guys.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ruckus was a free ad-supported online music service available to students at all American colleges.
- Professions and why did you choose them:I am currently a JC/engineer. Jc offers the best stat options with flexibility. Engineer is a bit more complicated. I was an alchemist all the way through WoTLK untill t10. My 2 piece t10 makes shamanistic rage a 1 min dps CD and the 1 min haste glove enchant was just too awesome to pass up. That of course was when haste was the be all end all stat for enhance to be stacking. Also along with the glove enchant you also get rocket boots, which i believe every raider should have for those oh shit moments. They are just way too handy, and are probably the single enchant that can completely change the outcome of an encounter.
EDIT: With cata engineering for me is in a peculiar position. The benefits aside from the helm just done seem all that amazing. Once i get my tier helm (assuming they dont change or add anything) i will likely drop the profession in favor of something else, probably enchanting or BS.
- Spec, Dual spec. How often do you play other specs? I have dual spec, but i use my second spec for mainly a PvP spec, as i really don't enjoy either elemental or resto. And ill be honest im no where near as good as i am with enhancement.
Edit: with cata i have been working on a ele set, but have yet to put it to any serious use. I want to diversify my skills and be able to change specs to max dps on a fight by fight basis.
- Explain your choice of gear for main & offspecs: My gearing for enhance set, is pretty standard with a few slight deviations. Pre patch 4.0.1 The setup i was using included the TAiAJ trinket, a different ring, and a different main hand. With the patch changes to enhancement and haste gearing changed significantly. Agi becoming the be all end all stat and haste dropping towards the bottom of the totem pole. I subbed in H WFS and picked up the expertise ring. I also had to do loads of regemming in order to make it all work they way it needed to. As far as my offspec goes, like i said its just a pvp spec.
Edit: With the crazy amount of hit enhancement needs just about every piece of gear i take has hit on it. If not it is reforged to hit, Pieces with hit on them typically are reforged to hit. Its best to avoid gemming these stats in as agi outweighs everything and cannot be reforged.
- What glyphs do you use for each spec and why: for my prime glyphs i use stormstrike, lava lash, and feral spirit glyphs. These have been theory crafted by the enchancement community to be the highest dps. Major glyphs are pretty boring, the only mandatory glyph is the lightning sheild glyph. I also use the ghost wolf glyph for more mobility in movement fights, and i use the healing stream glyph that gives your healing stream totem a resistance aura for a bit of utility. I'm going to assume that you're not interested in minor glyphs as they are typically unimportant.
Edit: Not much has changed
- If you are applying as a DPS, what is your normal rotation? Well enhancement doesen't have a "rotation per-se, but rather a priority que. My que looks something like this, SW on boss, MW5, ST if not up, LL, SS, FS, ES, SR on boss.
spirit wolves on boss, maelstrom 5 lightning bolt, searing totem if not up, lava lash, storm strike, flame shock, earth shock, shamanistic rage + gloves + racial when trikets proc.
Edit: Not a whole lot of change other than the addition of Unleashed elements which is a fairly high priority, coming just after LL and maelstrom LB and before SS, and shocks.
- If you are applying as a healer, what spells do you use & when/why?
- Highest PvP Rank on this character (vanilla & arena titles): Nothing to speak of, i dont do alot of serious PvP as until recently enhance has been pretty terrible in pvp. I do very much enjoy premade BG's however.
- Prior guild(s) & your reasons for leaving: Methodical on arygos- i left due to not getting along with the "management"
clout mace on kilrogg- my current guild which is planning on disbanding in the near future (days not weeks) due to utter failure /sadface
Edit: Guild has since disbanded. I went to a somewhat casual guild on the server that still kills bosses. However i find this isnt the play style prefer. I want to raid more than 1-2x per week and for more than 3 hours at a time.

- How did you find us? Is there anyone you know in Simple Math?:
i found you guys the wowprogress.com. I do not know anyone from Simple math.
- Why Simple Math? Is there anything else you'd like to tell us?
Well i like that you guys are on a pvp server. Ive played on PvE servers and i wanna try something new. I think it adds a unique aspect to the game. Simple math is a step up in progression, i don't like to move back wards in progression, as it makes all the work that i have put into the game seem pointless.
- What kind of computer do you use? CPU/Memory/Video Card? Typical FPS during a 25-man raid?
3.0 GHZ quad core, 4GB ram, ati radion 4600, depends on the fight for the most part, but i can expect 60fps and typically and when there is alot of spell detal and stuff going on lowest ill get is maybe 30 fps, i definately dont have a shutter effect when playing the game.
