Prot warrior // Elemental shaman Application

Writing this application with info for the two characters i got that im currently playing the most. Their gear and my experience playing them for the current patch is almost on par, the warrior being a bit more played and geared. Just to make clear im only one player but im interested in joining you with either of the two.

Player info

Character information

Battlenet ID: Cikes#2462
Class: Warrior / Shaman
Spec (MS/OS) why did you take this spec?:
- Prot warrior, been tanking since Vanilla and barely ever turned back except for a short while in early TBC. Elemental because pew pew

What professions do you have. And why?:
- Blacksmithing /enchanting for the tank. Extra sockets and ring enchants. Could switch the  enchanting for jewelcrafting some extra choice or stats or leatherworking for the extra stamina bút i feel the ring enchants has served me well so far and being able to enchant your own gear on the fly is always nice.
-The shaman has Alchemy / Engineering, proffesions that i felt i hadn't tried yet and still gave decent rewards for me.

Alts, usefull? how?:
- My main is currently the warrior and first alt being the shaman mentioned above. I wouldnt mind playing either in a raiding environment. This brings both flexibility for different encounters aswell as if we're missing a key player or class for a raid.

Do you want to join as a social member or a MoP-raider or WoD-Raider?
-Hopefully both a MoP and WoD-Raider

____________________________________________________________________________
If you are applying as a MoP-raider (if not skip this part):

We are currently raiding 3 times a week, Wednesday, Thursdays and Mondays from 20.00 to 23.00. How many of those raids are you able to attend?
-In a normal week, all. I'm currently studying which could steal some of my time but very rarely in the late evenings.

Some weeks we throw in an extra raid on tuesday for a clear on whats left (Sometimes only Garrosh). How do you feel about this?:
-If its not cleared we're not done.

We are strictly a 10 man raiding guild, which means we only focus on 10 man raids, can you explain your reasons for applying to a 10 man only guild instead of a 25 man raiding guild?
-Having a smaller raid setup is usually better for getting people to speak up on comm devices and such while 25 man might give a bit more of a epic feeling. Having played in both I can't say that I the smaller raid composition.

As we strive to have a raidcore of 13 players, we are rotating our raiders during farm bosses, this means that you will have to sit out some fights. How do you feel about that?

- Its never fun to sit out of a pregress raid and especially not being there for the kill but if its what it takes then yeah I can accept that.

During progress we will in most cases go with the group that has the biggest chance of killing the boss, this could possibly mean that you are sat out for certain progression fights. What would be your reaction?:

- Its never fun to sit out of a pregress raid and especially not being there for the kill but if its what it takes then yeah I can accept that.


What is your reaction if we fail to get a raidgroup going on a raidday?
- Sadness.

What do you feel about wiping. Please describe why you feel like that?
- Aslong as you're learning something from it, it feels fine. There will always be mistakes and other mishaps that will occur but each time you probably learn how to handle it a bit better, hopefully.

Are you able to use Teamspeak 3 (talking not required, but preffered)?
-Use and talk, yes.

____________________________________________________________________________
If you are applying as a social member(also applies for applicants towards raiders):

How did you hear about us and why do you want to join Kittens Ltd.?
- Most recently through your advertising in general chats.

Do you know anyone currently playing within our guild? if so, who?
- Not that I know of.

What do you feel you can contribute to the guild?
- I've always had a very good rate of attendance and I always strive towards doing as best I can.

What are you like as a person?
- Calm and assertive.

Would you say you are easily offended?
- No, not at all.
____________________________________________________________________________
If you are applying as a WoD-raider:

*Note that we do not require our WoD-raiders to join the guild right now as we can offer limited raidtime. Applying and getting accepted as a warlords raider will simply secure your spot in our Warlords raidcore. You are then free to join the guild whenever you want to (with the start of the expansion being the absolute latest)

What class are you intending to play during Warlords of Draenor?
- Whichever i plan on raiding with. As it stands right now I will most likely level my Warrior first.

What is your preffered role? (RDPS, MDPS, Tank, Healer)
- I've raided as Tank (Prot warrior) and Healer (Resto Shaman) in a competetive guild and enjoyed both but Tanking has always been my weapon of choice. Recently started gearing up my elemental shaman I've enjoyed it so far. Seems like it boils down to basically anything.

Would you be willing to use your lvl 90 char boost to get another class more suited to the guilds needs?
- Yes, right now I'm trying to figure out which class i wanna boost so that would make my decision so much easier.

We will still be raiding 3 times a week, Wednesday, Thursdays and Mondays from 20.00 to 23.00. How many of those raids are you able to attend?
-In a normal week, all. I'm currently studying which could steal some of my time but very rarely in the late evenings.

Some weeks we might throw in an extra raid on tuesday for a clear or an important killl, how do you feel about this?
-If it's not cleared we're not done.

Since we will be focused on Mythicraiding, we will strive to have a raidcore consisting of 23--25 players, this will mean people will have to sit out encounters. Are you able to understand and accept this fact?
- Yes

Guild history

Previous guild(s) and what positon were you in, did you have any mandate as that position, if so what?:
- Currently I'm in the guild "It's not Juan" which i joined not to long ago to try som raiding again. Playing currently as a Tank and a core raider for their main group. No mandate apart from what usually comes from being a main tank. After a few progress raids in HC SoO however I somehow came to be a bit of a semi raid leader since the current RL stopped playing because of IRL stuff.

- In TBC and the start of WOTLK, which is when i last raided with a serious guild before recently starting to play more actively again in late MoP, I raided with a guild called "Kreml High", also known as "Closure" for a while when we played on alliance, on stormscale as one of two main tanks.

Why did you get kicked/leave/want to leave?
-As stated above I am currently still in a guild but it has unfortunately gone inactive.

-I stopped raiding with "Kreml High" because of Military service and after that i stopped playing for a while.

Previous raiding experience - what class did you play during that time? MoP raid experience of most interest. But also fun for us too see what you raided beforehand:

- In MoP I've so far mostly been raiding with PUGs and killed normal Garrosh that way. With the guild I'm currently in we only got a few weeks of raids going before going inactive but I've currently killed the first four on HC. Played as a Prot warrior.

- Cataclysm: None, didn't play at all during this expansion.

- Wotlk: Killed up until the release of Ulduar as a core member of my current guild playing as a prot warrior and the rest including Lich king HC as a social with said guild.

-TBC: Did all the raid content up to and including Illidan with a semi hardcore guild. Before the release of Sunwell I joined "kreml High" which was a very hardcore guild and we ended up getting Twins as world 10 or 11 I believe as our best achievment at the time.

-Vanilla: Can't remember specific guilds but raided pretty much everything from MC to Naxx, didn't clear it though
Wich expansion did you enjoy the most, and why?
- TBC because thats when i raided the most and with the most competent people.

Fun facts!

Tell us about yourself: (work? going to church? sports? anything you think we should know?)
-Currently studying at a university in Sweden to become a Engineer in industrial automation and also working from time to time as a mechanic for volvo cars. I'm not much of a sports guy, I much rather go for a run or hit the gym. And well the obvious, video games.

If i did this template i would add the following question:
- Please no more, I'm exhausted.

Best youtube video and/or best picture on the internet (this does not have to be a lolcat):
