List the relevant raiding add-ons you use: Bartender4, Bosstactics, Carbonite,cooldown,DBM and Playerscore

We expect all members to attend any raids with food and flasks to last the whole raid night and being repaired and ready to pull at 20.00

Our Raid times are from 20:00 to 0:00 server time with invites starting at 19:30; are you able to be available for the whole duration? Yes
Thursday: Most Yes
Sunday: Yes
Monday: Yes

Have you been in another guild?: Yes

Which one(s)? And why did you leave?: Worlds eaters - Ive talked to Igno (ben) about the guild and they mostly go pvp but not RBG, and i like pve/raids so ive been honnest to him and sayed that i will look for another guild, but untill ive found the right one ill stay and help them out.

Please list your relevant raid experience, stating which encounters you have personal experience of at the current level cap:Ive done first two bosses of fireland and done tons of trash runs. But i know mostly all tacs thanks to youtube and the addon Bosstactics. Beside im a very quick learner and my focus when im doing a run is 100%

IMPORTANT:

Now when you are done with the "basics", we want you to explain a little about different aspects of your character.

Character:My sons name is Marcus thats where i got the name from, i choise Goblin coz they are harder to target in battleground and there fun.

Why did you chose the class you are now playing and the professions you selected?:Class - I got back to WoW and they Death knight was new to me, ive got a friend (char name: Migo) who i had a talk to about the class and he told me that they are a very very good Tank and since tank requiers brain to use probelly i though thats a char for me. Professens:Encharting coz my fiance (imsanne - Sannehunter) is a Herb so ill get all the pots i need there and i though what can we bouth need in the furture. And Mining yea thats only for grinding bars to help out friends ect.

Talent specialisation: MS:Blood SS:Blood. This might seems alittle funny, but its becoz i got 100% focus on tanking and i wonna play tank in PVE and PVP. PVP im mostly the FC and that requiers alittle dif. talent tree if you wonna make it right. So i got Blood for PVP and Blood for PVE basicly

Would you be willing to change your build for the guild?: If ive build the talents up from then, Yes that will only help so ofc.
Do you have two viable PvE speccs?:Ive got 1:Blood

Gear: PVE ilvl;372 PVP:380
 
Do you feel your character is sufficiently geared to compete in the Fireland encounters?: 10man yes.

Do you know anyone in MoX who can vouch for you?:I dont belive i know anyone from Mox.

What type of guild are you looking for?Raid  guild who also is a friendly guild. I like to help everyone out.


What are your goals in wow, what do you want to achieve and how long do you plan to keep playing? Ive got no plans on Quitting, and i wonna achieve tons of fun raids.

Additional Information: I love to go zanda when im bored :)

Confirmation that you have read, understood and agree to abide by the MoX Charter: Yes/No Yes

Is there anything else you feel is relevant to your application or that you would like us to know? There is two applications, i just wonna tell you that even tho im joining raids im still social.

Hi Zetlon,

Thanks for your interest in MoX :)
Overall I must say I really like your application, but there are a few things I would like to discuss in more detail since you applied as Raider.

First of all raiding experience:
1. From what I understand you've started playing WoW a couple of years back and had a couple of breaks. So I'm wondering besides the two bosses in Firelands, which raids have you done/completed while it was current content?
2. Also have you been in a serious raiding guild before?

About your class:
Spec looks good, for 10man and dungeons you might want to spec into Endless Winter, but it's not necessary. There is always the option to respec when it is needed.
3. Glyph wise I would like to ask, why you do you go for glyph of Blood Boil, while there are other glyphs that seem to be more beneficial for a Blood DK?

About your gear:
4. When we look at players' ilvl, we take a look at their equipped ilvl, because that is the average ilvl of the gear you're wearing at the moment. Yours in this case is not 370 but 363. Which means that you have got A LOT of gearing up to do if you want to raid FL and the new upcoming raid in the next patch. Are you willing to do so and are you willing to do this fast?
5. Where are you basing your reforging on, since I barely see any reforging at all? Or in other words what is your stat priority? (Yes, you've listed it in your application, but I'm asking it again, because I don't see it back in your gemming and reforging at all.)

Some of these questions might seem silly, but please take your time to answer these questions :)
Also I want to say upfront if we were to accept you, you will have a lot of ground to cover both gear and experience wise when it comes to raiding. Although I'm willing to help you, as I'm one of the main tanks myself, I can say that as a tank you will need to pick up tactics really fast. And although you can be coached, it's key for certain boss fights that you thoroughly understand the boss mechanics and not just do what you're being told.

Hope I'm not scaring you off and I'm looking forward to you answering these questions! ;)

Kind Regards,

Hello Sagiv.

No your not scaring me off hehe i didnt take the time to put up this application if i didnt think it matters so its all okay to ask me anything.

Yea me Raiding Experience, i know what you mean about your questions. But to be fair mate, then ive only been back for about 4½ month. so i belive that my exp concidoring the time ive been playing. (gonna level him to) is very good i play every day i can study all i can on the web. but i know im not exp with all the raid, but this way your also sure that i know the right tacs since your the one teaching me :)

The glyph. yea a guy called: Oldity told me to try out hes glyph`s coz he had tons of exp. so its a trail honnestly but i most say i like it, but small changes can ofc. be mad.

Thanks for the tip on the ilvl, its always nice to learn how you really do read the dif. spec og a player. i Like Playerscore so im useing that alot. I know im not fully geared yet. but look at my profil and see what ive done just the last month and youll see that im doing good work on getting the gear better. and if i just keep it up. (as im planing) then it shoud be good. but i ofc. hope to get some help since im here also to help the rest of the guild.

And as i sayed in the aplication then i wonna learn. i know many tacs. to bosses rag and so on witch i havent done, but i feel like i wonna do this bosses so i might as well learn the tacs for them.

ill be ready to answer all Question here or in WoW so just fire at me and ill respond.

Thanks for the respond in here.

Hi again ^^

You left the questions 2 and 5 unanswered.
Other then that, I like the fact you're trying out things to see what works for you and you look like someone that's eager to learn.
So please answer those questions and I'll discuss with the other Officers if we're prepared to turn you into an awesome Raider :)

Hello Sagiv.

Ive talked to you and Ramsay ingame but its only fair ill writhe my answer in here to so the rest of your guild can read it to and every knows whats going on.

The reforged, i had only 1 item reforged theres to resends for this, 1 ive gotten alot of new gear lately and 2.. Ive just forgotten to get it done, but after had talked to you two i rushed down and got it done and it got accepted by Sagiv.

Ive never been in a fully focued raid guild before so my answer till that will be no. Ive been in a semi raid guild long time ago, and i have tryed to remember the raids but its so long ago that i most say no i havent been in a raid guild before.

I got some advises from Sagiv and Ramsay yeasterday, and that helped out alot. all my gems are accepted and all my encharting and reforged it accepted now. But still abit i need to do, so im gonna work on that now.

Best reguards.

Wait what?

So you want to tank our fire lands raids? I know you have inv already but...

First off, Make your 2nd spec a DPS Spec, /Care about you wanting to be a FC. You prefer PvE? Sort it.

"List the relevant raiding add-ons you use: Bartender4, Bosstactics, Carbonite,cooldown,DBM and Playerscore"

Highlighted is the correct answer.
 
"Please list your relevant raid experience, stating which encounters you have personal experience of at the current level cap:I've done first two bosses of fireland and done tons of trash runs. But i know mostly all tacs thanks to youtube and the addon Bosstactics. Beside I'm a very quick learner and my focus when I'm doing a run is 100%"

Correct answer: None. Or "I got boosted on first 2 bosses" Etc... You have 0 raid experience.
Bosstactics is awful. Delete it.

"Do you feel your character is sufficiently geared to compete in the Fireland encounters?: 10man yes.
Where do you think your current equipment is lacking now?:New weapon."

Correct answer: Shoulders, Trinkets, ALL VP gear: Rings, legs, chest, relic. Leg enchant.

Yes, you guessed it, I'm the bad cop!
Sorry but If you posted this app to even a Semi-hardcore raiding guild the thread would be locked on the spot.
Nothing personal dude but for me your not at the level we want.
Good luck on your trial and I hope you prove me wrong.

There must be some kind of misunderstanding.

First of all I didn't start any trial yet. So my apologies for my fellow Officer here, for being a little short sighted.

Angeldeelite does have some valid points tho which I hadn't discussed yet, such as the mandatory addons and also all our tanks have a decent geared off spec to adept to fights where there's only one tank needed.

However, the fact gear is lacking in certain areas we've already discussed and Badmarcus is also working hard on getting the gemming and enchanting fixed. So I just want to make it very clear, for both Badmarcus and my fellow officers: I won't put you on a Raider trial untill I'm convinced you're actually able to handle the level of raiding we're at. Because if we would throw you into Heroic Firelands without preparing you; disaster is almost guaranteed to happen.

So for now I will be coaching Badmarcus and see how he progresses as a tank and player in general and help out where possible. And once I think you're ready to raid Firelands we will start a Raider trial to see if you have what it takes.

I hope this gives some clarification for everyone!

I think raiding in Firelands Heroic is gonna be vey hard with your current gear but since 4.3 is just around the corner that might make it a bit easier to get into raiding Dragon Soul. With the LFR version of the Dragon Soul raid and the 3 new 5 - mans you can get ready pretty fast for normal mode Dragon Soul raiding. Be ready to grind the 3 new 5 mans till your eyes bleed and pray for lots of drops in LFR.
