Shockaholiic, Elemental 393 (Declined)
« on: January 19, 2012, 23:07:11 »
The Basics
1. Your age & country:
Snorre Longva, 16 years old from Norway

2. Character name, class and level:
Shockaholiic, 85 Shaman

3. Link to the armory so we can check your character out: (http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/)

4. What spec are you applying as, and why do you prefer this spec? Are there any offspecs or alts you would also be willing to play regularly?
Well, my mainspec has used to be elemental, and that is why my gear is better there. But im not really sure if this is the spec i WANT to be.. Ele shamans are really underperforming at the moment, and this is driving me CRAZY! so im actually thinking of rerolling rogue, but that char is not ready to raid with at the moment...

5. Explain why you gemmed/enchanted/reforged the way you did:
Because this is the way i found that works the best for me, i dont really got any other answer than that, but if there is anything, feel free to ask!

6. What professions do you have, why did you choose them, and are they changeable?
at the moment i got enchanting and engineering, where Enchanting is maxed and engineering is only about 300 (planning to max it very soon)

7. How’s your internet connection, have any issues with DCs?
Id say i got a really good and stable connection, without alot of problems.

8. Do you have a mic and are you willing to use it? Working Headset? Know how to use ventrilo?
my headset is actually broken at the moment, but im going to send it back to where i buyed it and get it fixed very soon, got the papers and evrything in order, just have to post it...

9. Can you make our raidtimes? (Monday/Wednesday/Thursday/Sunday, 19.00-23.00 server time)
i cant really see why i cant make this, i got not a part of a soccer team or anything like this, so im free pretty much all my spare time.. im still going to school, so sometimes there might be some exams or something i have to study for, but i will let you guyes know if something comes up ...

10. Got any logs we can check to see your awesome dps/healing/tanking skills? (www.worldoflogs.com)
dont got anything saved atm, but if you look at Karskdrekkarlaget's page im sure you will find something ...

The interesting stuff
The rest of the questions are about you as a person and raider. Taking some time to answer these questions properly will go a long way to becoming an < Horizons > member. Answering with a single word tells us almost nothing.

11. Do you understand the guilds purpose and what is expected from you in this guild? If not, why? Do you fill out the basic requirements mentioned above? If not, why?
i cant seem to find any of the requirements i cant fill, except for the fact that Elemental shamans are underperforming at the moment, but ill do my best to make it work...

12. Why do you want to join Horizons?
Because it looks like a very serious and highperforming guild, and alot of my friends from karskdrekkarlaget has joined this guild aswell...

13. How much experience do you have in End-Game raiding? if you have experience with other classes, tell us which. Both in Cataclysm and pre Cataclysm.
i havent really been one of the most hardcore raiders, but i do have experience as both DPS warr and healer/dps priest from Ulduar, totc and icc(11/12 heroic end game) i got 9/10 classes in lvl 85, and i know the most about all of them, there has ben a few changes so im abit outdated on some, but im an easy learner...

14. Do you have experience with progress raiding? (that is, wiping on the same boss for hours/days/weeks in a row) How do you react in such a situation?
actually i not so much i think.. all i remember is from ICC + trying to progress DS heroic with Karskdrekkarlaget, but i got no problems with wiping, one wipe = more understanding how the boss works = one step closer to killing it...

15. Which guilds were you in before, and why did you leave them?
back in wotlk i was playing with Erratic on Ravencrest server (Horde) but the one ive ben raiding with in cata is Karskdrekkarlaget, but now im looking for a new guild as i have ben demoted to social as they are focusing on theyr core 10-man group ...

16. Have you ever been in a leading position in previous guilds?
no, i havent ..

17. What can you offer Horizons, and what do you expect in return?
i can offer experience, and patience along with some good dps etc. what i expect in return is a serious raid group ready to progress, endgame ..

18. Do you have any Horizons members that would vouch for you?
I suppose all the old Karskdrekkarlaget members would vote me in, but other than that i dont think i know anyone :)

19. How do you see your future in World of Warcraft? Will you keep playing in Mists of Pandaria?
ofcourse ill keep playing, i have so much fun while playing world of warcraft .. especially with an good, social group while progressing in a new raid. dont think it can get any better than that ..

Just to be clear, I presume you're applying as Elemental? Since your topic states Ele/Enha but you don't mention Enha anywhere in the application.

Elementals are under performing so why not switch specc rather than class? From my understanding Enhancement is one of the better DPS speccs out there if played correctly.

Now, since you're 16 I gotta ask: do you ever have your parents on your case telling you to stop playing in the middle of a raid? The reason I'm asking is that we would probably frown upon the fact that you can't make raids or have to leave in the middle of a raid because you got in trouble ;).

Other than that casters are not my area of jurisdiction so all I'll say is good luck with your application! :)

yes, i am applying as elemental, unless you want me as enchance.. can come as what you want me in, but as said ele is underperforming, but if i can come to a couple of raids with you as enchance i guess my gear will get better pretty fast ..

No, i dont have any problems with my parents telling me to stop playing ...

Elemental is not underperforming its just you end up in the middle of the pack if you play proper.With legendary u can push the limits but hey elemental has been like this since early wotlk.I am sure there will be a bandaid soon.Like always ...

Thanks for your interest in joining Horizons, but unfortunately you are not the ele we are looking for.
Good luck in finding the most suitable guild for you.
