What is your raid experience? Please list as much as you think is relevant.
Was a hardcore raider back in DS where I achieved top 3 world parses on my rogue. I took some time off then came back in SoO where I went 14/14 Heroic (now mythic) on my hunter. Played casually up until HFC where I picked up the shaman and went 1/13M. I was elemental but then they had me change to enhance and I loved it.

Why did you leave your previous (current) guild?
The guild changed raid times and my class schedule wouldn't allow me to raid.

How did you find out about our guild?
WoWProgress


Does anyone in our guild know you?
Negative


How many alts do you have and is this your main?
3, this is my main unless the guild needs a feral druid


What are your play times?
When ever I can


Which of our raid times would you be able to make?
Tuesday and Thursday 100%, Monday maybe


Would you be willing to sit out if it is necessary without a fuss?
Sure

What website(s) do you use to research your character(s)?
Icy-Veins and the SimCraft API


Have you spent a sufficient amount of time and gold on your gear, gems, and enchants?
Yes


Raiders are expected to use consumables during raids. In the following categories what consumable would you use and why?
- Flask/Elixirs: Greater Draenic Agility - it is my main stat
- Well Fed: Buttered Sturgeon - more haste = lower GCD due to enhancements passive, flurry.
- Potion: Draenic Agility Potion - MORE DPS


What is the basic enchanting / gemming strategy for your character?
Haste up to about 50% then mastery


What is your favorite boss fight and why? What boss haven't you fought that you're looking forward to the most?
Manny this tier, it reminds me of the LK fight in Wrath, plus Manny is huge and has a badass character model


What boss mod(s) do you use?
Recount, DBM, Iskar Assist


What website(s) do you use to proactively research raid encounters?
Youtube - fatboss


Is there anything else you want to tell us?
I am a competitive athlete and a college student so sometime I may have to miss raids due to RL commitments, but I will let you know ahead of time

Please add my battletag, as I am not on your server. Winded#1236


Are there any ways that we can improve the application process?
It was pretty straightforward, maybe post the raid leaders Btag for easy contact.

greetings, thanks for the app! my standard disclaimer to youngins these days (or anyone for that matter) is that we expect our members to behave in a mature and respectful manner, but as long as you are capable of doing so it shouldn't be an issue. otherwise everything looks good to me.

no worries, school / life > wow.

out of curiosity, do you have any intention of realm transferring or are you just looking for crossrealm raiding?

I would server transfer once I was an established member, but for the mean time (at least 2 weeks minimum) I would do crossrealm.

sounds good. i should probably mention we've struggled with numbers, this past week was the first time we've had enough for mythic since the beginning of december, but hopefully things will be more consistent now that the holidays are over.
