What other games apart from WoW do you play?: I play Starcraft 2, Football Manager and a little Fifa
A bit about yourself: I love football, i like gaming, i dont like work, i love tea, i dont drink, im not an out doorsy person, im definatey not a morning person, ive never seen any Star Wars movie(just need to get that out there, i have found out recently this is plain wrong), ive been with my partner for 8 years, i love pink, all my charas usually wear a pink magweave shirt and no one ever believes me i have an A level in Law, guess i look stupid or something
.
People seem to describe me in a few ways, odd/strange, random, a little grumpy, very camp. just like to think im a friendly guy who seems to get on with most people.

ABOUT YOU AS PLAYER:
Do you have Teamspeak? (Voice communication is essential to our raiding, although it is not required to have a mic unless you apply as tank): I have TS and a Mic, I dont generally do a lot of talking, I get mic shy with my gf in the room, no idea why always have
might end up being a little different though

Have you been in another guild? Currently in a guild called Fallen From Grace on Shattered Halls
Which one(s)? And why did you leave? When you have been knocking around on wow as long as i have you tend to pick up a few guilds, my current one however was a friends guild that never took off and they have all subsequently quit leaving me as the only member that still logs on. Most of my recent guild history are tales of woe about friends trying to start a raiding guild.
Please list your relevant raid experience, stating which encounters you have personal experience of at the current level cap: 5/6 BWD, 1/2 TotFW, 3/4 BOT, ICC(Normal) 11/12, ICC(Heroic) 5/12, TOC(Normal) 5/5, Ony(80), Ulduar 9/14(ish before i blizzed it at 85), EOE, OS, Naxx Cleared, BT6/7 bosses, MH Cleared, TK, SSC, Gruul, Mag, Kara all cleared, AQ40 to Twins, AQ20, ZG, MC, Ony, BWL all cleared
All done on a mix of formats and on a couple of charas
IMPORTANT:
Now when you are done with the "basics", we want you to explain a little about different aspects of your character.
Character:
Why did you chose the class you are now playing and the professions you selected?: I will start with professions as thats easy. Engi is the best profession in wow, I love the variety it give and also now has perks along with the other profs. if anyone can tell me you dont love rocket boosting off LM and parachuting to BS to start an attack hasnt lived
. ofc it was better for gadgets back in the good old days, but i still dont think i could ever be without it, ive tried and gone back every time. Mining, because im tight and wont level Engi through the AH
Miggs was my first serious chara and although i have tried to change main in the past, its never lasted long. Shamans just seem to suit me, a little random. WF is my fav spell(effect) in the game and the CH(although not used atm really) is the sexiest heal. I cant see myself ever rolling from a shaman permanently, and if that’s the case, thats got to be a good thing
Talent specialisation:
Would you be willing to change your build for the guild?: Sure can
Do you have two viable PvE speccs?: Not currently, i tend to do a lot of BG (trying for a few titles) so i like to keep a PVP Enh spec
Gear:
Do you feel your character is sufficiently geared to compete in the Fireland encounters?: I would say no.
Where do you think your current equipment is lacking now?: Obvious places would be Shoulders, Belt and offhand(its not the best, but damn i like the look
). Landslide on my weapons needs to be done(i have them in my bag, i just havent enchanted yet). I have also got about 3/4 pieces of new gear without reforging away from the excess hit, which will be something i will look to do, regem or reforge. i seem to have also gemmed a lot of Mastery, i would prob swap that into pure Agility. I havent done anything PVE releated for a few months i dont think so my gear looks in a bit of a mess, which ive only just noticed.
Guild:
Do you know anyone in MoX who can vouch for you?:While i remember people from MoX, forum names and in game names, i wouldnt think they would remember me
I have previously been in MoX(as you can prob tell by the <1 post count) with my Pala Pheonixx and Miggs, but like i said, people wont remember me.
Why you want to join MoX?: From personal experience i know MoX is an awesome community, looks like it hasnt changed. MoX as a guild has the same beliefs i do. Want to be able to progress in content with a good group of people. I dont think he plays anymore but Behindu is responsible for my single most memorable raiding memory, will never forget it.
What type of guild are you looking for?Im interested in all aspects of the game, PvE, PvP and achievements, i would love a guild which incorporates all aspects in one community. Would be awesome to have a number of like minded people to do these with.
What are your goals in wow, what do you want to achieve and how long do you plan to keep playing? I don’t see myself stopping for a while. My short term goal is to have fun, not be the only person who logs into a guild and find players to play with. My primary goal is to finally see an expansion out, despite being a raider for nearly the whole of my wow life, i have yet to kill an end boss at relevant level, no LK, KJ or KT, would like to try and vanquish Deathwing
Additional Information:
Confirmation that you have read, understood and agree to abide by the MoX Charter: Yes
Is there anything else you feel is relevant to your application or that you would like us to know?
Although i would like to be a raider, i have just bought my first house, go me and such
. i have not yet moved in but all the preparing and when i get into the house at first i can see my play time being a bit less and sporadic. Im not on as often or as much as i would usually be. So i would think that this app may have to be first seen as a social as i am not yet near Firelands gear requirement i wouldnt think, i also havent been keeping up with tactics or PvE priority queues, so before i could be considered i would think i have a bit of work to do, coupled with whats going on it may take a little time to do that. Hope that makes sense
Just realised everytime i write one of these i sound like a right soppy bugger
Anyway thanks for reading, have a good night and good day!
