IMPORTANT:

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

Character:Lifither

Why did you chose the class you are now playing and the professions you selected?: Well, the tanking style of a DK is right up my street, managing blood shields , rune consumption. And just the general feel of the DK tank , is just awesome imo. I'm also very well clued up on my class, knowing the in's and out's of all aspects of the class.

I've Got Jc / Enchanting because being able to cut gems and enchant my own gear is both a money saver, and makes your gear better. I mean..67 mastery gems, <3 !! !! And having a lot of the epic gem patterns is awesome aswell !

Talent specialisation: Blood.

Would you be willing to change your build for the guild?: I'd rather stay as a tank. considering it's my ms and my preferred role. But i can dps, aslong as it doesn't mean burning DKP on both specs

Do you have two viable PvE speccs?:Yep.

Gear: iLvl 395 equipped as tank. 393 as dps
 
Do you feel your character is sufficiently geared to compete in the Dragon Soul encounters?: Without a doubt. Considering i've tanked HC modes in DS

Where do you think your current equipment is lacking now?: It'd be nice to have some more heroic gear And in regards to my dps gear, I'm in rather a lot of LFR gear, which is a bit shit. But i can still tear up DPS meters

Guild:
 
Do you know anyone in MoX who can vouch for you?: Well, quite a few people, considering i was in MoX before
Why do you want to join MoX?: Because I'm fed up of not raiding , and it'd be nice to get back into it with a decent guild, with decent progress. As long as i'm not shunned aside
What type of guild are you looking for?: Semi hardcore, fun , Progression guild.


What are your goals in wow, what do you want to achieve and how long do you plan to keep playing? I want to clear all end content on heroic, and i intend to play until the game dies out. It's too good of a series to just bail on, midway through.

Additional Information:

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

Is there anything else you feel is relevant to your application or that you would like us to know? I'll be happy to return to mox if you guys would allow it. But I'd rather not be shunned into a farm group, and i'd like to be given the opportunity to prove my skills as tank / dps

hi there

i haven't read your apply but i checked the armory link. even if u are in your dps gear i can start to see problems. why are u reforging to crit , and away from mastery , the main stats for unholy dk is strength>hit8% and then haste> mastery> crit. On the bright side the gemming seems fine except from your feets where u have put in a yellow gem with 25 strength and 25 crit , change that with 25 strenght and 25 haste.

and btw i checked ur Blood Spec and your glyphs. The first thing i wanna point out is that u have specced abominations might.  the only time that is usefull is when it is no pala in ur group and in blue and red team there is pala's, the second thing is u should spec lichborne and get glyph of deathcoil and replace it with glyph of death and decay and crimson scourge is is just waste of talent points.

sincerely omgabsorbed

Lol dude. If you knew anything about unholy dk's you'd know that since the patch, ghouls now benefit from crit you have. Henceforth making crit a better stat than mastery.

And as for my tanking gear. Forgive me for saying, but there is literally nothing wrong with it. i know my class inside out,  my glyphs are perfectly fine, and so is my spec. Yes, some people prefer to play the lichborne spec, where as i , do not. My spec is more than viable, I've tanked dragon soul heroic various times. And yes, you may beleive that abominations might is not needed. But when there are no talents i'd rather take. I'd much prefer to supply a buff to people in groups, where there is no one else to do so.

Also, I think you'll find. I won't be taking the advice of a dk that sockets straight stamina. 

[Angeldeelite]

Shame, you edited that elitism comment a little to slow there dude... Most of the officer team have already read it.

Will get back to you ASAP

We've worked hard to get two good raiding teams and it would be an insult to the people that have sticked around the last half year to allow people like you back in. I remember that less than a week before you left you said you were willing to help lead the second group and then you left us hanging only a few days later to join another guild.

Also Omgabsorbed was just trying to give some feedback. Since when is giving feedback elitism?
Yes, we're more strict on allowing people in, because there are people thinking: "Oeh, 6/8 progress, let's apply", even though they don't have any experience/gear to raid Dragon Soul.
Unfortunately to see, you're not open for feedback. I've heard lichborne is a great talent to spec in and have to agree with Omgabsorbed that Abom Might might be a bit wasted if there are other classes in the raid providing the exaxt same buff.

All in all, I just want to say we're looking for people that are loyal and can handle criticism/feedback. Two characteristics you don't seem to have.

I wish you good luck find a suitable guild, because this application is denied.
