Help
Class: Priest
Armory Link: http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.x...mp;cn=Luminette
Raid Spec: Holy as MS and Disc as OS. I'd love to talk about any of my spec, gear, gemming, glyphs or chant choices as well as my playstyle within that spec, per encounter.
Please Link any Combat Parses (WWS, WMO, etc): Don't have any available but you could speak with Hell / Palace / Isis about me and my numbers. I top charts but I'm not fixated on that kind of thing. While I top healing done, I always place low in overhealing done
Did you read the “Applicants read this first” thread? Yes
What is your availability? 24-7, very active player
List your computer specifications (CPU, RAM, Graphics Card)
What is your average latency? 30-50ms, dependant on the server. I have a very good connection that I pay extra for, outside of the standard residential cable internet.
Ventrilo and Headset? Have you figured out “push to talk?” Yeah
What is your raiding experience? In WoW I have been playing since Vanilla where I was in Death and Taxes on Korgath for the world first Ony kill, skipped TBC and came back into WoTLK a month or two into the Starcraft 2 Beta I had been playing. I'm 10/12 H 10 ICC and 7/12 H 25 ICC. I missed the Naxx and Ulduar era as well but have gone back to those (and done hard modes for Uld) for the sake of new encounters / challenges.
Outside of WoW, my raiding experience is much more extensive as I have been raiding at the end-game and hardcore level for over a decade, primarily with EQ1, EQ2 and WoW, but have also spent a lot of time playing other second-tier MMOs (City of Heroes, Guild Wars etc)
What is your PvP experience (Highest Rank, etc.)? Since being back I've yet to truly invest in PvPing, just battlegrounds and world pvp shenannigans. I am however a very skilled pvper and may pursue arena in the near future, in which case I would certainly make it to 2k+.
What previous guilds have you been a part of? Death and Taxes (Korgath - Alliance) from Vanilla, in WotLK I was an officer in Virus (Shattered Halls - US - Alliance) with Hell / Palace / Isis.
Why did you leave? I founded Virus with those guys and we put a lot into it, received a lot of impressive progression as a result but in the long-run the server was too small (especially for Alliance which were 1:4 ratio with Horde) and the overall skill level and raid experience of players was not up to par.
What guild are you in right now? I'm helping Vitality (Kil'Jaeden - Horde) to progress by raid leading for them while I'm here but they already know I'm leaving soon so I'm essentially guildless.
What server are you from and why are you looking to transfer servers? Kil'Jaeden at the moment - I came here with Palace/Isis/Hell to try and find a new guild / better overall server environment (both for PvE and PvP) Another friend of theirs that they PvP with had unplayable latency issues there, however, and so they moved forward to Kel'Thuzad and I'm following suit
Other than your current raid spec, what other specs do you know how to play? As a Priest I can play Holy and Disc at the highest level and my Shadow is only slightly lacking in comparison, only because I have not put as much time into since returning to WotLK (Has a 5850 GS and still needs ICC DPS trinkets)
Will you respec if the guild asks you to? Mhm
Do you have raiding experience with any other classes or specs? In WoW I have been playing a Priest since Vanilla, but have hopped on a friends character to tank ICC 25 with a 5200 War (first time playing war or a tank in WoW) and it was a breeze. I've been around everything in WoW long enough that I know a lot about the other classes (I can often help people with their gemming and stat priorities, even their rotations) and am totally on top of raid contribution spells from all classes.
Outside of WoW, I have extennnnsive experience with any sort of class and role (both for raiding and pvp), especially in tanking and healing (EQ/EQ2) as well as class styles not really in WoW (Dedicated Buff and CC classes like Bards and Enchanters) I've played plenty of DPS in my time but veer away from it as a main character choice as it is A) too boring for me long-term and
a waste of my talents as a raiderWhy do you want to join The Driven? Progression and to be with my friends and good players
What's your name and your age? Jackson / 23
What time zone do you live in? Mountain Time - I'm in Denver, CO
What do you do for a living? What do you do for fun? On the job front I am currently unemployed and taking it easy. For fun I play WoW, read a lot, music, movies, talk to friends, the occasional walks and runs. Currently watching the last season of Lost. Oh, and I co-run www.starcraftmethod.com (I'm Lumi from the SC2 scene, if anyone in the guild is an SC2 geek they may know who that is as I'm a popular player / broadcaster / commentator there)
Do you know anyone in the Driven? Isis/Palace/Hell
Anything else you'd like for us to consider? I'm a really strong player and I bring a lot to the guild and raid. I'm very personable and love to help people out with their class/spec (gemming / chants / glyphs as well) and I looove having Priest to Priest discussions.
I have past experience leading hardcore raiding guilds and it's my pleasure to organize and raid lead things (I often get side raids going and network with the better players on the server)
I was raised on EQ1 raiding and am used to doing difficult encounters without staple modern crutches like DBM and such. I'm very quick, mobile and raid aware - I make my class shine, regardless of spec
I'm looking forward to Cata content and aiming at server firsts!
If you have any other questions or would like to meet, just have those three guys (the brothers) hunt me down and I'll hop on vent or feel comfortabl;e posting here as I'll pay attention. Thanks for your time!
