A bit about yourself:
Basically I'm a gamer, Gaming is my passion, and I can get very dedicated in a mature company. I am currently unemployed, so i have a lot of time on my hands.

ABOUT YOU AS PLAYER

Do you have Teamspeak? (Voice communication is essential to our raiding and it's highly recommended you get a mic if you don't have one already):
Yes, and i have a noise-free mic.

List the relevant raiding add-ons you use:

• Elv-UI
• Deadly Bossmods
• Recount
• Omen
• NeedToKnow

And here is a SS of my UI for good mesure

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. On which days will you be available for the whole duration? (A raidgroup usually only raids up to 3 nights a week)
Under normal circumstances, i should be available every day of the week.

Have you been in another guild?
Yes

Which one(s)? And why did you leave?:
I played FL6/7HC with The Valour Legion, on one of my druids, quit wow like a week before they got Rag hc

Please list your relevant raid experience, stating which encounters you have personal experience of at the current level cap:
I started raiding in WoW just now in Cataclysm so, [4.1= 4/13] [4.2 = 6/7] [4.3 = 6/8]


Please link, if possible, any recent relevant logs (www.worldoflogs.com), so we can get an idea from your current performance in raids:
I dont have any logs to share, unfortunately.

IMPORTANT:

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

Character: the mighty Hunter, Touk.

Why did you chose the class you are now playing and the professions you selected?:
I've always liked the ranged playstyle, and always liked physical dmg over spell dmg, (don't know why lol) and the hunter class is the only class ingame, with ranged physical dmg I Chose Herbalism/alchemy, and that was a pretty bad decision. I will probably ditch that and  go with Blacksmithing/Leatherwoking, mainly because of they both give main stat boosts, unlike herbalism witch is a haste pop

Talent specialisation:

Would you be willing to change your build for the guild?
Of course i would
Do you have two viable PvE speccs?:
Not at the moment no, but if I feel that I really need 2 different PvE speccs, I will respecc in an instant

Gear:
 
Do you feel your character is sufficiently geared to compete in the Dragon Soul encounters?:
Yes i do.
Where do you think your current equipment is lacking now?:
Im lacking a tier head
What stat-priority do you currently use (both secondary and primary stats, especially for tanks and healers), when gemming, enchanting and reforging your gear?: Agi>8%hit>20%haste>Crit>Mastery. Some would say that mastery is better than crit, I've tried both, Crit all the way.

Guild:
 
Do you know anyone in MoX who can vouch for you?:
No, not any1 i can think of right now. :/
Why do you want to join MoX?:
I am currently in a Casual pvp guild, and I'm just bored of playing with horribly bad people, and this guild seems very organized and mature. Basically the opposite of the guild I'm Currently in.
What type of guild are you looking for?:
Hardcore PvE raiding guild


What are your goals in wow, what do you want to achieve and how long do you plan to keep playing?
My goal is being a part of a worlds Top50 last boss kill.

Additional Information:

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?
Not at the moment. If i think of something, i will make sure to let you know ASAP.

Hi there Touk, welcome to MoX

All our lines are busy, please hold as we connect you to our first available officer..

[Hordecore]

Dear Touk,

As I'm rerolling hunter in MoP I will start on to practice commenting on your apply.

I want to say that you put down a very nice apply. Everything looks correct to me.. You have too much haste but it seems you reforged all haste away from your gear which mean you can't get lower.. Also this is a known problem.

I want to put a comment on 1 thing which is your profession. You mention it yourself allrdy that you want to change them which is a Must as we ask our main raiders to have 2 crafting professions. I would prefere Engineering with Alchemy which i'm preparing on my hunter now, ofcourse we cannot chose the crafting professions for you, as long as its 2.

Even thou this will be my cup of competition in MoP I would give Touk a positive vote from my side.

For the rest I leave this upto the officers.

Hey Karl,

Thanks for applying to MoX!
Overall a pretty good looking application, would love to see some logs seeing as you're applying as DPS, to give us an impression of what you're capable of with your current gear. So if you could fix that?

Tamtoe is right with regards to the haste, you're already reforging out of it for the most part; but according to wowreforge.com, you're able to lose an additional ~150 haste. This is stuff you're gonna have to keep track of yourself everytime you replace an item in MoP. However it doesn't really matter at the moment, seeing as everything is going to be changed in a month or so anyway.

With regards to your professions:
Alchemy is completely fine; Herbing however is going to have to be replaced by another crafting profession. According to the following thread Engineering is going to be on top for the first tier in MoP for Agi users (subject to change, as it's relying on information from the beta): http://elitistjerks.com/f99/t129814-windwalker_dps_flurry_tender_fisting/#Professions

About the kind of guild you're looking for..
We are not a hardcore raiding guild, sorry to disappoint you. We DO NOT raid 7 days a week, 14 hours a day; I guess everyone has a different point of view of what hardcore is though.
PvE wise we are aiming to climb up the ranks even more in MoP, but I feel we still have some road ahead of us to be competing with the top guilds out there. Also since we're raiding only 3 days a week, 4 hours a day during progression. We expect our Raiders that are part of one of the two progression teams, to prepare as much as possible outside of raids, even though some things of course can only be tried out in raids. So in that regard, we are taking those 12 hours a week of raiding pretty serious.

Speaking of which, have you made any preparations for MoP yet?
Think of leveling your hunter on the Beta, played around with talents on ptr, maybe did some Beta raids?

Anyway, I'll stop writing before I need a TL;DR.

Looking forward to your reply!

Hey Sagiv,

I am a total scrub when it comes to uploading logs, but one thing I can do, (if it's acceptable) I could dps a dummy for <insert amount of time here> and link it via in-game chat. I could even get a MoX officer to stay with me in a group, to get 2 recount logs. I hope we can figure something out

Concerning professions, I am going to have engineering max before MoP.

My goal is to be a part of top guilds progression. That is not a short term goal. You guys aren't one of the worlds top guilds, but someday you might just get there and I am prepared to work for that with you guys.

I did not get the anual pass, simply because I don't really like D3, meaning I do not have Beta access yet (I feel like a minority here).
I have in fact watched  videos and read forums concerning Hunters in the Beta. As soon as I get access,(if I ever will) I will go and get 1st hand Beta experience.

I hope this answers your questions, If there is anything else, ask away. Constructive criticism is always welcome in my house

[Dakilla]

Druidie? No way your getting in MoX if it is up to me!

[Touk]

Woah :S
Dakilla, I don't know if you are joking or not, please explain

About the logs you were asking of, I just made a WoL account and figured out how to upload logs, but I'm pretty tired atm, so first thing in the morning I will do some dummy testing, and probably LFR to get some logs for you.

Here are some cats, in the meantime

-Touk

EDIT: misspells

[Hordecore]

Normally Dakilla is no trol and specially not on Applies. Is there anything unusual you did when you where in TVL on FL progress? As I think he is referring to this.

TT

[Dakilla]

I've notified Sagiv about my concerns. It had to do with your attitude during the merge of your old guild LUSTRUM and TVL. Also about your actions of leaving/skipping guildraids to join the Earthstrong pug. You also didn't do 6/7 HC with TVL but with that same pug if I remember correctly. Feel free to clarify.

[Touk]

Well, as i remember it, tvl did 1 HC boss in Firelands and then kind of fell apart and stopped raiding for a short time, then i did some pugs with that earthstrong guy, and then at some point he joine tvl with a bunch of dudes and we progressed through firelands like that. Later on i actually quit raiding with Tvl, because of Earthstrong, the asshole he was

P.S: Just woke up, logs on the way

[Dakilla]

Well that is clearly not what I remember.. It's up to Sagiv now.

[Kletsnat]

Hey Touk,

A quick look on wowprogress shows TVL cleared 6/7HC Firelands Sept 22nd. Earthstrong didn't join TVL untill Nov 14th.

You guys aren't one of the worlds top guilds, but someday you might just get there and I am prepared to work for that with you guys.

I'm afraid someone that's hopping raiding teams whenever there's a better team/guild out there, is not what we're after.
"On top of that MoX holds the value of Loyalty very highly and once we pick a side we stay with a side." (quote from the MoX charter)
We're looking for people that put teamplay and fairplay first and dedicate themselves to the guild. Your guild history as it's layed out here shows the exact opposite.

Therefor, I am going to have to decline this application.

Good luck finding a suitable guild!

/Sagiv

[Touk]

I would like to say that I am not a guild hopper, I would probably raid with Tvl, if they were still raiding, witch they are not. But i respect your opinions and decision making, so i wont bother you more exept for 1 more question. Will time allow me to re-apply some day(if so when?) or am I "forever banished" from the MoX raiding team?

-Touk

[Hordecore]

Obviously Touk you are welcome to re-apply anytime. Though it will never guarantee in an acception of your situation. Maybe when there are other captains on the ship and/or other opinions merged your chance is better.

Feel free to try it whenever you think your ready for it.

Tamtoe

[Touk]

I feel that im ready for this challenge, right now. I am just kind of bummed out that i didn't get a trial, to prove im not the kind of player that you guys think I am
