Which of the following best describes your raiding goals? The rest of your application will be judged based on the answer to this question.
1. Raid whenever you have time in whatever group is most convenient
2. Raid consistently in a normal mode group and maybe some heroics
3. Dedicated to progressing through heroics at whatever rate the group is capable of
4. Hardcore heroic progression
5. None of the above, please explain:


What is your raid experience? In Cataclysm I have done 4/7 in FL and first 4 bosses in Raid Finder. I have done tons of raids previous expansions. Wasn't sure how far back.


Why did you leave your previous (current) guild? Currently i was in my guild for friends only and was not a part of the main group because it was already full.


Does anyone in our guild know you? Not anymore. I knew few people back in the day.


How did you find out about our guild? Trade chat.


How many alts do you have and is this your main? Yes the rogue is my main and I have 9x 85's and 1x 82.


What are your play times? whenever.


Which of our raid times would you be able to make? I can make all but 4th group would be great to start since there is a need for a rogue.


Would you be willing to sit out if it is necessary without a fuss? No, I understand in some cases certain classes aren't as feasible as others.


Have you spent proper time and money into your gear / enchants / gems? Always have mats for everything including gems.


Raiders are expected to use consumables during raids. In the following categories what consumable would you use and why?
- Flask/Elixirs: Flask of the winds
- Well Fed: Skewered Eel
- Potion: Potion of the Tol'vir

Best Stats for highest output for my class.

If you are DPS, what is the (spell) hit your character needs to be viable in a raid? 8% hit rating


What is the basic gemming strategy for your character? Agility since I'm capped with hit/expertise.


What is the basic reforging strategy for your character?
Melee Hit > Expertise (26) > Haste > Mastery > Crit


What is your favorite boss fight and why? What boss haven't you fought that you're looking forward to the most? I honestly don't have a least favorite, but I'd like to really see Deathwing.


What boss mod(s) do you use? Bagnon, Bartender, Power Aura, DBM, Xperl, Recount, Altaholic, Carbonite, Atlas Loot.


What website(s) do you use to read up on encounters proactively? TankSpot

greetings, thanks for the app. first, this is not a hardcore guild, so if you're looking for server progression raiding and / or a raid that runs more than two nights a week, you will probably not find that here. that said, we do expect our progression groups to make decent progress into heroics. also, the tuesday / thursday group is currently overfull, so the monday group is the only progression raid with spots available. the schedule for that group is still being worked on, and it is likely a second day will be added once it no longer requires alts.

as for your gear, you are missing a gem in your belt and your gemming and reforging in general are not ideal by a fair amount. you should never use stam gems of any sort. shadowcraft is an excellent tool for sorting such things out: http://shadowcraft.mmo-mumble.com/

otherwise everything else looks pretty good. track someone down online and we can get you an invite.

The reason I didn't use the right gems is because I just recently acquired the belt and was waiting to transfer a toon from horde to alliance with the right gems. Since the patch has been out and gems are out of control in price -_-. About the raiding I'm honestly down for whatever and as long as I raid I will be happy. The only person that I can think off the top of my head is Tinkerpriest.

k no worries, i generally forget that i'm spoiled by having a jc and i don't have to worry about such things.
if you can make monday raids, that would be ideal, otherwise we'll see what we can figure out.
tink stills makes an appearance every once in a while, but its been a long time since she's ran her happy fun pug groups.
